CATI telephone interviewing

Professional,
human-to-human research

Our team of interviewers are trained to engage with respondents across all sectors and elicit vital information from them.

Hyper-niche
segments

We take the time to find and make contact with hard-to-reach individuals, including key business decision makers.

Efficiency
meets quality

Ekas’ high-tech Sydney call centre has the capacity to conduct large-scale CATI projects quickly and to the highest standards.

What is CATI?

CATI – or computer-assisted telephone interviewing – facilitates direct contact with respondents who can be hard to find via online panels and surveys, enabling interviewers to collect richer information.

Ideal surveys for the CATI format include targeted projects with business professionals, customer lists, postcode or council-specific regions.

CATI:
the Ekas approach

While finding the right respondents for your survey can be time-consuming, our team is experienced in contacting people and building a rapport with them to encourage participation. You can rest assured the person on the end of the line is the right respondent for your research.

Ekas undertakes CATI research using your own customer lists or samples taken from contact list providers. From small to large N-sizes, ad-hoc or ongoing tracking studies, we have the expertise to tailor a solution to your requirements.
