Milwaukee
firm releases Web-based data-mining, form, survey software
Milwaukee-based
Xorbix Technologies after almost
two years of work has released Web-based software, Ioxphere
(www.ioxphere.com). Ioxphere
enables users to create, warehouse and data-mine surveys, forms, polls,
and reviews while seamlessly integrating into their existing Web sites.
Xorbix
Technologies’ president and founder, Asif Bakar says that Ioxphere
“is designed to help customers in the areas they are most concerned
about: time effectiveness and budget.”
Bakar
said Ioxphere has a number of features to help organizations gather
information:
- Wizards
and template libraries allow users to create online forms for surveys,
tests, inquiries, feedback, registration, subscriptions, rebates,
applications, help requests, and checklists.
“This saves users from incurring programming costs that are
normally associated with creating survey tools and databases,” Bakar
said. The forms may then be published to the user’s Web site or Intranet.
- Ioxphere’s
form wizard does not require the subscriber to know HTML or XML coding,
thus eliminating the need to pay a computer programmer to accomplish
the same thing. “There
is no software to download or purchase; customers may subscribe to
the online service for any length of time.
Because all work is performed via the Internet, Ioxphere’s
only requirement is a Web browser,” Bakar said.
