ATLAS.ti is a leading software for Qualitative Data Analysis for those who want to see the big picture and appreciate details. It reveals meanings and relationships allowing users to ground their findings in the data.
ATLAS.ti allows users to gain rich insights with the most intuitive and powerful QDA software. It is completely re-designed in nearly every aspect, ATLAS.ti 8 Windows is poised to set new standards for computer-assisted qualitative data analysis.
ATLAS.ti 8 is easier to learn and use than any other QDA program–including older versions of ATLAS.ti. It is completely revamped interface has been designed to follow rigorous priciples of function-oriented usability. It employs a logical ribbon structure, context menus and keyboard shortcuts to make work flow as ergonomic as possible.
The shortcomings of older versions have been eliminated, and much requested new functionality has been added. Most notably, unlimited Undo/Redo is now possible with every aspect of the program.
Full native Unicode support lets users work with material in any language and character set. An easy-to-use search tool performs fine-grained searches on every level of a project. It simultaneous work with multiple data sources supports new comparative approaches.
Moreover, ATLAS.ti 8 is easy to learn. Many formerly convoluted processes have been radically simplified. The focus is on getting results quickly and efficiently. Also, ATLAS.ti 8 is powerful and innovative. Stylish network visualizations serve both the analytical process and provide excellent presentation tools. Importing surveys, data from Twitter as well as from one’s favorite reference manager is a breeze.
It also comes with the future built-in and it is completely rewritten and based on the latest technological platform, while allowing for rapid, modular expansion. Users can expect to see previously unthinkable new possibilities in the coming months and years as ATLAS.ti 8 continues to grow by design.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ATLAS.ti is sophisticated software for qualitative data analysis. ATLAS.ti is highly intuitive and very easy to learn and use. ATLAS.ti features a highly intuitive interface designed to follow rigorous principles of function-oriented usability. ATLAS.ti offers users a logical ribbon structure, context menus, and keyboard shortcuts to make workflow as smooth as possible. ATLAS.ti provides a full native unicode support which allows users to work with material in any language and character set. ATLAS.ti features an easy-to-use and super fast search tool which performs deep searches on every level of project. ATLAS.ti‘s classy network visualizations serve the analytical process and provide excellent presentation tools. With ATLAS.ti, users can directly import data from Twitter and Evernote. Regions in ATLAS.ti allows users to work with multiple documents, memos, networks etc. simultaneously. Navigator in ATLAS.ti provides instant access to all project items. Other features of ATLAS.ti include multi-functional word clouds for all object types, Powerful Visual Query Editor, and support for literature review through import from reference managers such as Endnote.
Very intuitive, some nice improvements since version 8. For instance, the way you code your data is implemented in the most intuitive way as compared to other QDAS packages. The Quotation Reader is also a nice new addition, allowing you do not only read the coded data but also to modify the coding, adding new codes or remove existing ones
Version 9 has a complete new auto coding function, allowing you to easily create AND and OR searches. It also offers a range of synonyms to chose from. If you want more, you can use the expert search with regular expressions. A very nice add-on is that you can test your regex before actually starting the search. In addition, you have two new auto code features Entity Recognition (NER) and sentiment analysis.
Another nice new addition are the Sankey diagrams in the Code Co-occurrence and Code-Document Table.
The network function - as previously - always has been superior to comparable features like maps and diagrams in comparable programs.
What are the benefits?
The software offers more than being a coding tool - and even just coding is difficult to achieve by just using Excel or Word. So the benefits are many. It allows you to analyse data in a way otherwise not possible. You gain more and better insights. For a researcher it is useful already during the stage of the literature review. For students it can be used also for small research projects as part of their studies, later for their bachelor or Master thesis. Companies who may need a quicker turn around from data collection to results, benefit from the auto coding tools and the slick analysis tools that produce quick and nice looking results.
