First Commercial Software for TRS-80 in a Decade: Vovici FEEDBACK/80
Posted by Jeffrey Henning on Wed, Apr 01, 2009
ROCKLAND, MA--April 1, 2009--Vovici today announced the immediate availability of a new version of EFM Feedback written specifically for the Tandy/Radio Shack TRS-80 Model I. "When we realized that no new software had been developed for the TRS-80 Model I in eleven years, we felt compelled to re-open the market window," said Jeffrey Henning, chief strategy officer of Vovici. "The TRS-80 is an exciting platform for us, given its installed base. While some software companies were started in the garage, we're the first to develop software for computers that are often left in the garage."
Vovici FEEDBACK/80 is available directly from Vovici as a bundle with any edition of a Vovici application. For a limited time only, the new product comes with Vovici v4, the leading enterprise-feedback-management platform and the only survey software that uses a word-processor interface. Available as an annual subscription, Vovici v4 allows you to design, administer, collect and analyze web surveys.
Unlike the TRS-80 edition, the web edition offers full charting and presentations, report writing and questionnaire libraries. Add-on options include Feedback Intelligence, which brings business intelligence capabilities to survey analysis, and Mobile Survey, which provides for offline survey administration.
Vovici FEEDBACK/80 supports a nostalgic command-line interface and can be used to enter and tabulate survey results, with the number of questionnaires you can process limited only by RAM. You can enter 30 questionnaires for a system with 4K RAM and several hundred questionnaires for 16K RAM. FEEDBACK/80 can support up to 50 questions per survey, where every question is a multiple-choice, single-response style question. To conserve RAM, you do not enter the text of the questionnaire into the system.
"We're taking backward compatibility to a new level," commented Jody Bailey, vice president of development and network operations for Vovici. "Supporting the TRS-80 emphasizes the Vovici commitment to integrating state-of-the-art feedback management with legacy systems."
