World's Leading Qualitative Data Analysis Software Launched in French
MELBOURNE, Apr. 21 /Medianet International-AsiaNet/ --
A French version of the world's leading qualitative data analysis software, NVivo 8, was launched globally today.
The release, by developer QSR International, gives French speaking users access to NVivo's powerful multimedia
analysis tools for the first time. The software is already used by academic, government and commercial
organizations in more than 90 countries.
QSR International CEO John Owen said that while NVivo has always been able to work with data in any language,
until now its interface has only been available in English, Spanish, Simplified Chinese and Japanese. He predicted
the addition of the French and German language options would lead to greater collaboration.
“For those using NVivo 8 software to manage global projects, it means they can work in their own language but use
the same methodology and process as their overseas colleagues. It allows the world’s best minds to work together,
whether they're pursuing important health or social research, undertaking content analysis or evaluation, or
extracting business intelligence.”
NVivo 8 allows users to upload and analyze video, audio, images and text side-by-side. The software can be used
to test out theories, identify trends and cross-examine information. Professional models and charts can be created,
and NVivo project files and results can be shared via mini websites – even with those who don’t have NVivo. The
software can also identify the work of individual team members even after separate projects are merged.
The English version of NVivo 8 is already used widely across Europe, including by Groupe de Recherche sur les
Actions et les Croyances Collectives-Centre de Recherche Individus Epreuves Sociétés (GRACC-CeRIES) at the
Université Lille 3 in France. Users will now be able to switch seamlessly between French, German, Spanish,
Simplified Chinese and English interfaces and support materials at any time, without affecting their projects or data.
French born research fellow Dr. Christel McMullan, now at Queen's University Management School in Northern
Ireland, has welcomed the release.
"Conducting data analysis in my native language will be easier and more practical. It will also be a great opportunity
to help French academics to network and develop their research more easily."
