Short description

QDA Miner is an easy-to-use qualitative data analysis software package for coding textual data, annotating, retrieving and reviewing coded data and documents. The program can manage complex projects involving large numbers of documents combined with numerical and categorical information. QDA Miner also provides a wide range of exploratory tools to identify patterns in codings and relationships between assigned codes and other numerical or categorical properties. Documents are stored in Rich-Text Format and support font and paragraph formatting, graphics and tables. Documents may be edited at any time without affecting the existing coding.

QDA Miner can import and export documents, data and results in numerous file formats (MS Word, WordPerfect, RTF, HTML, MS Access, Excel, Paradox, dBase, etc.). It also provides unique integration with advanced quantitative content analysis, text-mining (WordStat) and statistical analysis (Simstat) tools, providing easy combination and integration of qualitative and quantitative methods. http://www.provalisresearch.com/QDAMiner/QDAMinerFeatures.html More ...
