It only takes minutes to create a beautifully branded lead capture survey with the QuickTapSurvey Administration Website.

With connected tablets, results can be viewed, analyzed and downloaded in real-time.
Getting started with QuickTapSurvey couldn’t be easier. Exhibitors sign up for a free QuickTapSurvey account and then upgrade to one of three plans. QuickTapSurvey pricingstarts at just $19 per month and is based on the plan and number of tablets used.

From March 2 to 4, 2012, Golf Town (Canada’s Largest Golf Retailer) was the lead sponsor for the Toronto Golf & Travel Show. Golf Town hired TabbleDabble to interact with consumers and enter them into a contest to win a $1500 shopping spree and 3 private golf lessons. The goal was to beat last year’s 2500 contest entries while providing a quick and positive brand experience.
TabbleDabble provided 2 branded iPad kiosks and 4 branded iPad cases with hand straps to create a presence outside Golf Town‘s booth while still having the ability to target areas with high traffic volumes. With 5 amazing brand ambassadors, TabbleDabble quickly hit the 2500 number on day 2 and ended up collecting more than 3600 leads for Golf Town.
Jane Hooper Perroud, Director of Marketing at Golf Town says,”The TabbleDabble team did an awesome job over the entire weekend! They exceeded our expectations at the show and provided reports promptly.”
BetaKit recently wrote an article about startups in the user feedback space and here is what they had to say about QuickTapSurvey:
“Ease of use and access is the name of the game when gathering feedback, and reducing friction is key to getting results. Other startups are hoping to accomplish that by making in-person surveys as quick and easy as the online variety. Toronto-based TabbleDabble has created QuickTapSurvey, a fully-customizable iPad app that lets users create their own surveys based on simple touch input buttons and fields, using a SaaS model to provide a range of features and options to suit the needs of different-sized businesses. People using QuickTapSurvey can load their questionnaire and hand it to a customer or stakeholder; the on-screen navigation and variety of customizable shortcuts make it faster than writing information out by hand. All results are available as an Excel-friendly .CSV export, making it easy to work with data once collected.”

TabbleDabble developed an in-field customer survey for Mobiroo to deploy at select Best Buy, and Future Shop retail stores near Yonge and Dundas Square in Toronto ON. TabbleDabble carefully crafted a survey that could be completed in under 30 seconds so as to not disrupt customers during peak times.

This year, TabbleDabble is raising money for Movember in an exciting, unique and super fun way! We’ve created an app for the iPad 2 called MyMo that lets Mo Sistas, Mo Babies and other Mo Challenged supporters see what they would look like with a moustache while raising awareness and donations for Movember!
MyMo can be downloaded for FREE (http://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/mymo/id480687935?mt=8&ls=1) but we are asking that donations be made to the Tabble-Mo-Dabble Movember team (http://mobro.co/tabbledabble) for its use.
Unfortunately, this photo is not from CBC’s Dragon’s Den but rather the Digital Day 2011 Conference hosted by the Canadian Marketing Association. Brett Wilson was one of the keynote speakers at the conference and we were lucky enough to meet him and give him a demo of our QuickTapSurvey product. He immediately saw the value in our product and was very enthusiastic!!

Like many of the other data collection “solutions”, TabbleDabble does not use web-based software, such as micro-sites, simply running inside a browser on a tablet device. TabbleDabble creates native apps that take advantage of all the benefits of running directly on a tablet.
Here are 10 reasons why you should avoid web-based software and micro-sites for tablet data collection and use TabbleDabble instead:
- You are dependent on having an Internet connection. No connection, no data. TabbleDabble’s data collection solutions works online or offline.
- Web-based surveys just don’t look good on tablet devices. Tablets are revolutionary, sleek, simple and elegant. Web-based surveys are out-dated and clunky. Pairing a tablet device with web-based surveys is like trying to mix oil with water. TabbleDabble’s software can be customized to reflect your brand, theme, colours and overall image.
- Your survey runs inside a browser. You see the URL, site title, navigation bar, bookmarks and other browser-related items. TabbleDabble’s software only shows you what you need to see.
- Running a survey inside a browser makes it very easy to exit the survey and check email when no one is looking! Web-based surveys cannot be left unattended. TabbleDabble’s software can be locked down so that surveys cannot be exited.
- There is a noticeable lag or delay in the survey. Each page takes time to load as communication with the server is required at every step of the way. TabbleDabble has no delays at all.
- There are no custom keyboards. You get the standard iPad keyboard regardless of the type of data that needs to be input. This is a pain when you need to enter numbers or data that is made up of letters and numbers (e.g. Canadian postal code). Input validation through pop-up messages are annoying and tacky. TabbleDabble comes with a number of custom keyboards.
- Tapping buttons on a web page inside a browser is not as responsive as tapping buttons in a native app. TabbleDabble solutions are super fast.
- Small text and small buttons make surveys difficult and slow to use. TabbleDabble solutions have been designed by usability experts to be intuitive, fast and easy to use.
- Screen real-estate is not optimized. TabbleDabble uses every pixel of the screen for the survey.
- HTML is so 90s. TabbleDabble is the future of face to face surveys on the iPad.
The facts are clear and the decision is yours. A web-based survey application may get the job done but if you want the fastest, easiest and most reliable way to collect data on a tablet, you need TabbleDabble! Contact us for a free demo and you’ll see why web-based surveys just don’t cut it.
