[Air-L] qual data analysis and other thoughts

[Barry Wellman]

1. Nud.ist became QSR NVivo many years ago. Much changed.

2. I am not a proponent of any but a general warning:
While all programs are subject to disappearing without notice, I would be 
careful of any that are new-ish start-ups, in case they don't have 
longevity. You'd then be stuck with a a non-upgradeable program, or even 
worse, some thing that lived on the little cloud that died (apologies to 
Johnny Mathis)

NVivo, Atlas-TI, MaxDA (sp?) have been around for years. I don't know 
about the others.

I haven't used any in quite a while, so no comments on what to choose.

Happy Almost Victoria Day!
