If you are a mid-sized or enterprise company, or a government organization that needs to administer questions as part of a control self assessment process, if you have regularly submitted forms to manage across staff, or require a survey tool for vendors, human resources, marketing and other needs, then Cura’s Survey product will be ideal for your organization.
Cura’s Survey product will meet requirements that include: Voting, Scoring and weighting of answers, polling, peer reviews, customer and vendor questionnaires, internal proficiency exams, and more. Surveys can be deployed as a self standing solution that will enable HR, marketing, finance and other departments to gather information quickly and efficiently, and analyze the resulting data. Cura Surveys’ administration and report writing makes use of the existing Cura client modules, thus allowing it to be integrated into the existing user interface used for the Assessor and Compliance modules.

multiple sign-off and aggregation levels to enable workflows and processing thus ensuring responsibility and accountability at all levels of the organization;
neat integration with your HR systems (e.g. SAP, PeopleSoft, ERP’s etc.) to enable up to date organizational structures to be maintained in a single location, yet be able to cater for new hires, leave, substitutions, position changes and other dynamic functions that occur in large organizations;
