CHECKBOX 4.1 Survey Software Released by Prezza Technologies
Release Notes New Features
Active Directory Integration: Prior to this release, network authentication for the CHECKBOX application was done through an IIS configuration. With 4.1, CHECKBOX will now directly authenticate Active Directory users. When network login is enabled, a user will be able to browse to the login page and enter his/her active directory user credentials and login in to the application without having to specify a new set of credentials specific to CHECKBOX.
URL Rewriting: URL Rewriting will allow survey administrators to provide access to surveys via a more”friendly” url. Currently, survey URLs have a form that is extremely long:
(http://mysurveys.com/checkbox/Survey.aspx?s=f3cf6c7c18a94dca9a4f5918823ed686).
Long URLs have three major drawbacks:
1. They are not easy to remember.
2. They arepotentially intimidating and could reduce response rates.
3. When put into some emailclients, the strong can wrap and break the link.
Our new URL rewriting feature will solve these three problems.
CAPTCHA item type:
CHECKBOX 4.1 will include a CAPTCHA item type. CAPTCHA stands for “CompletelyAutomated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart. When used, this item type will prevent computer “bots” from finding and populating CHECKBOX surveys with false or spammy responses. This automated means of determining if a respondent is human is required to increase the security of our web-based application.
