OTTAWA, Canada, May 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- In-Touch Insight
Systems Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of In-Touch Survey Systems
Ltd. (TSX-Venture: INX), announces that it has launched the beta
version of In-Touch Apps at the Event Marketing
Summit ("EMS") in Chicago on
May 16-18.
In-Touch Apps targets mobile application developers,
Marketing Research firms and the Operations and Marketing
departments of large brands. In-Touch Apps is a mobile
Software as a Service ("SaaS") solution exemplifying our vision of
Perfect Information. Instantly.
"Releasing a beta version of In-Touch Apps to the market
will dramatically increase our scalability, our channels to market,
and provide us with valuable insight on feature requirements. At
the EMS we talked to numerous potential customers from Brands to
Event Marketing Agencies to the outreach teams of hospitals and
educational institutions. There was a clear need from these
potential customers for a SaaS technology that allowed them to be
in control of mobile messaging and data capture with and on-demand
solution like In-Touch Apps. We expect to sign up a number of new
customers as a direct result of the show," said Michael Gaffney, Chief Executive
Officer.
"A report by Gartner states, 'By 2013, 80% of businesses will
support a workforce with Tablets.' We want In-Touch Apps
mobile technology to be at the forefront of this market," said
Gaffney.
The In-Touch Apps beta release wraps our most popular
software tools with an easy-to-use web GUI for rapid development of
mobile/onsite data collection applications. Using In-Touch
Apps, a non-programmer can create their own data collection
applications, from surveys to customer feedback forms to onsite
registration forms, including advanced features such as photo or
signature capture and instant-winner contests. In-Touch
Apps is a SaaS and can be deployed instantly to a broad range
of devices, from iPods to iPads to tablet PCs to kiosks, and all
the "hard stuff" is baked right in: automatic online/offline
support with no need for servers onsite, smart contact forms,
strong data encryption, live device monitoring and live results
reporting. In-Touch Apps is unique because it runs on
any device that runs a modern browser.
"In-Touch Apps puts you in control, with the
ability to rapidly design and deliver complex, customized data
collection applications and an excellent onsite user
experience. With In-Touch Apps you can customize the
application in real time, lowering your risk and increasing your
data collection potential," said Michael
Kahn, Chief Technology Officer.
