“He who does not new methods must expect new calamities.”Sir Francis Bacon
Rost Group in an innovative company, and develops solutions that are completely new to the Ukrainian market. One of these developments in 2011 is the
SINCE ONLINE intellectual, interactive voting system.
This system is an original IT product of the Rost IT company, created with the support of the
Foundation for Goog Politics, and had been created to provide the interactive interaction of an Internet audience in events of different formats. SINCE ONLINE is a system that allows to synchronize the votes of an Internet audience in its browsers with the course of public events.
Advantages of the system:
- Attraction of a larger audience to a public discussion: the number of participants in any event grows, because the Internet audience is much wider than any live audience can be. The geographical coverage is thus also improved.
- Provision for a full cycle of interactive discussions: giving feedback between participants in an event and experts.
- An increase in discussion quality through attracting representatives of different groups (respondents, participants, experts).
- Uniting a discussion with sociological research: the preparation of analytical information in accordance with the result of votes in different forms (graphs of respondent activity and dynamic vote results; data bases on participants and respondents).
- Speed and mobility for receiving information and feedback; the advantage of not having o invite participants to a particular physical place to hold an event.
The advantages of online technology is in allowing full participation without leaving the comfort of one's own computer screen: to see everything happening on screen, to ask questions online and to receive live video answers to them, and to vote on questions presented to the audience.
The results of the votes are processed in seconds and are displayed on screen almost instantly.
The
SINCE ONLINE systems allows to get a dynamic reaction of the Internet audience to the speakers during an event, to answer questions asked with the aid of PCs connected to one server through the Internet, and to give an appraisal of the event in real time.
During a
SINCE ONLINE session, the system administrator:
- Processes and visualizes the results of the Internet vote in real time.
- Forms a picture of the results of the Internet audience votes (answers to questions, recordings of reactions to the live talks, and so on) on the analyst's computer screen and on plasma screens in the physical premises of the event.
- Gives a simplified visual of the results of the votes of the Internet audience on the screens the participants.
To participate in a
SINCE ONLINE session, the participants:
1. Register in the system at our website;
2. Log in to the website with their user name and password at the specified time of the session;
3. Watch what happens on their computer screen and react to the events (vote, ask questions and so on).
Both the live video of the physical event and the instruments for interaction (forms for asking questions, making comments, and so on) are shown during the session.
The workplace of the SINCE ONLINE administrator allows to generate several data collection flows to choose and show one of the streams on a plasma screen where the event physically takes place, and to stream the rest to the Internet audience.
The participants of the Internet audience are chosen in accordance with the requirements of the event.
The sampling of respondents can be done by the following criteria:
- geography
- social strata
- age
Registration:1. Registration can be open and closed
2. Respondents can always be selected and prepared
3. Experts of a higher level can be provided with their own key

Special experts can improve the quality of an event, because they are able not only to give their expert opinion on the matter, but to reply to questions that may come up during the event.
Let's reach our goals together!
