4. Actionable Alerts and Notifications: 75 percent of executives are interested in a survey solution that will allow them to set up email alerts based on response information triggers enabling quick response and action to business events.
5. Automated Report Distribution: 75 percent of respondents expressed a need for automatically generating reports and efficiently providing the data to appropriate individuals and teams.

"These results indicate that enterprise survey users are now looking beyond standalone, ad-hoc survey systems and are looking to integrate survey technology directly into their existing business processes to create an enterprise feedback culture," said Arturo Coto, CEO of Inquisite. "With the release of the Inquisite Survey System 8.5 we are embracing this Enterprise Feedback Management (EFM) vision with a variety of features that make it easy for enterprise organizations to integrate real-time customer and employee feedback with existing business applications and processes."
