The Survey Analytics Platform is the On-Demand framework that powers SurveyAnalytics. Integrating back-office systems like CRM, Trouble-Ticketing etc. with your survey database is achieved via open and secure standards like SOAP, SSL, XML and HTTP.
Integration with other systems is often necessary to maintain a unified system-of-record. CRM Systems like Salesforce.com, Siebel etc. are the system-of-record for customer data for many companies and different business functions rely on that. It is important for IT departments to have a cohesive dataset as part of the overarching company-wide strategy. The Survey Analytics Platform enables marketing departments to create and deploy surveys easily without the need for IT and relieve strapped resources but at the same time being compliant with the overarching company-wide data-warehousing strategy.

Additional parameters (Employee ID, Campaign ID etc.) can also be added to the URL to capture along with the survey data.
In this scenario, the email invitation will be handled by your CRM system.
When respondents click on the link, they.ll be directed to SurveyAnalytics to take the surveys. SurveyAnalytics will collected the data and store it as part of your survey data.
