Hi - A few weeks ago I posted a request to learn more about software tools to store contact information from participant recruitment. I received two responses, one of which is attached to this message. My computer crashed so unfortunately I lost the 2nd message. Thanks Elena! This tip for ACT! Is very helpful - Kay -----Original Message----- From: Elena Fadeeva [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Monday, August 29, 2005 1:53 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: RE: seeking recruiting database management tool Hi Kay - -We are using ACT! application from http://www.act.com/ for seven years now; good enough for managing medium size database.

Do most usability departments create their own database or are there any which come for free or can be purchased? Also, can you offer some tips on features that should be included which are outside the standard collection of participant characteristics and contact information? Please send your responses to me directly. I'll summarize them and post to the list. thanks - Kay Aubrey -------------------------------------------------------------- Tip of the Day: Postings must be in plain text CHI-WEB: www.sigchi.org/web POSTINGS: mailto:[log in to unmask] MODERATORS: mailto:[log in to unmask] SUBSCRIPTION CHANGES & FAQ: www.sigchi.org/web/faq.html -------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------- Tip of the Day: Use the archives to research common questions CHI-WEB: www.sigchi.org/web POSTINGS: mailto:[log in to unmask] MODERATORS: mailto:[log in to unmask] SUBSCRIPTION CHANGES & FAQ: www.sigchi.org/web/faq.html --------------------------------------------------------------
