FTP integration is crucial when it comes to automation of import and export of transaction reports. FTP sync is a dependable medium to schedule import and export of reports by easily providing the FTP details. Real-time integration of data between a client and the QuestionPro CX software can happen using FTP.

The scheduler will prompt the CX software to start reading the excel files that are to be imported and immediately send a survey out to these imported contacts, only upon selection. Periodic export of raw data or dashboard can be carried out at the FTP location. The scheduler needs to be configured and the researchers have to then wait for results. Apart from raw data, details about unsubscribed respondents, delivered or bounced surveys can be obtained.
