Key Findings Basics

Overview

Key Findings is an easy-to-use, secure online platform that allows you to share important research results with colleagues and clients. Any MarketSight item can be added to Key Findings, and Key Findings users do not need to learn MarketSight in order to understand your insights. To learn more about adding crosstabs, charts, dashboards or data views to Key Findings, please see Adding Items to Key Findings. For instructions on how to control what users see by setting permissions, read Changing Key Findings Permissions.

A Key Findings-only user will be able to see only the folders and items that you give them access to. By default, they'll be able to get a URL to share the item with other Key Findings users, and they'll also be able to export Key Findings.  (Don't want your clients to be able to export? No problem! Please contact Customer Service.) In addition, Enterprise level accounts can create interactive crosstabs and charts, which allow Key Findings users to work with presented data within set limits.

The appearance of Key Findings can be customized to include a company logo or company colors.  The fee for this may be waived depending on your account type.
