Quirkos for Students

Once you've collected all your data, what next? Whether your own transcripts, surveys, interviews, diaries or when doing secondary analysis, Quirkos is designed to make coding and understanding your data straightforward. You can even use it for systematic reviews or literature analysis.

Rather than drowning in a mountain of printed out transcripts you read and code by hand, Quirkos has an intuitive visual interface that lets you keep your work together, and code across all your sources. It's also flexible to accommodate whatever methodology or framework you want to apply.

Even for a small mixed-methods project, Quirkos is quick to learn, and makes coding fast and easy. Just drag and drop text onto bubbles that represent your themes, and watch as they grow - giving you a live overview, and keeping you close to your data. Code directly from search results, and use keyboard short-cuts to get through mountains of text quickly.

Best of all, you can work where you like, on Windows, Mac, Linux, or mobile devices, with the same interface on all devices, and all your data and analysis in one file. Or with the Quirkos Cloud subscription, access your data on your laptop or desktop, all backed up and up-to-date. Share with your supervisors and let them see your progress without sharing a new file every time.

We reckon you can get started with Quirkos in just 5 minutes after watching one of our video guides, and best of all there's a free trial with all the features that works for 14 days. After that, we remember what it was like to be a penniless student, so our offline license starts from just $69 and doesn't expire (even after you graduate!).

Alternatively, you can pay $5 a month for the Cloud subscription with remote storage and access from any computer - half of the cost of other qualitative analysis software.

There's also plenty of help on our website if you need it, including more videos, manuals and example projects.
