Aquad
Aquad is a platform developed in Germany (you will have to translate the website, which is also in German) that supports text of any kind, audio, video, and image files. There is a plugin available to use with R, the open source statistical analysis software.
Coding Analysis Toolkit (CAT)
CAT was designed to utilize keystrokes rather than the mouse as a coding assistant. CAT can import an ATLAS.ti project to parse quantitatively, though it has a coding mechanism built into itself as well. CAT won the Best Research Software award from the Information Technology & Politics in the American Political Science Association in 2008. CAT is Web based.
Compendium
Compendium models itself as an application to visualize the connections between information and ideas. It is very visually based and offers similar functionality as most CAQDAS platforms. Please note: the program and code are still available, but are no longer maintained as of 2014.
qcoder
qcoder is an R library for qualitative analysis hosted on GitHub.
QDA Miner Lite
A 'lite' version of the proprietary software, QDA Miner Lite has a slightly limited functionality. You can still perform the basic functions of the full version but don't have some of the more advanced options. You can see all the differences in the side by side comparison.
RQDA
RQDA is another package from the exciting R Project, a statistical analysis platform that has developed a constantly growing community of users and developers that is designing all sorts of software for use in data analysis. What a plugin to such a power statistics program means is that implementing quantitative data to your project will be seamless and effective.
Taguette
Taguette is an open source qualitative analysis program that works on Windows, Mac, and Linux computers, as well as in-browser. A quick tutorial on how to get started can be found at their website, linked above. You must have Python 3 and Calibre on your computer in order to successfully download and use Taguette. The online version requires you to register for a free account.
Weft QDA
Weft was a project by a student who was fed up with the pricing of many of the proprietary software providers. Weft provides solid coding capabilities of text in addition to full text search using Boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT). There is no visualization capabilities. Unfortunately, Weft has been abandoned, so there is no support from the developers. Probably best used by researchers only looking to analyze text.

Weft QDA is (or was) an easy-to-use, free and open-source tool forthe analysis of textual data such as interview transcripts, fieldnotesand other documents. An excerpt from my MSc dissertationexplains the thinking behind the software in more detail.

I love open-source software, and use it everyday. However, I feel that at the moment most of the qualitative analysis software options are lacking in some important way. Realistically, open-source software works best when the people using it are able to contribute and add to the development of the code.

The qualitative data platform for insights-driven organizations. Single source of truth for all of your qualitative data. Spend less time managing and editing media files. We automate the heavy lifting of transcribing and preparing media files for analysis and tagging, so you can focus on generating meaningful insights.

The software isn’t being maintained or updated, but the most recentversion is available for interest. This version includes some standard CAQDASfeatures: (Follow the links to see screenshots)

Import plain-text documents from text files or PDF
Character-level coding usingcategories organised in a tree structure
Retrieval of coded text and‘coding-on’
Combine coding and searches using boolean queries AND, OR, AND NOT
‘Code Review’ to evaluate codingpatterns across multiple documents
Export to HTML and CSV formats

Using Weft QDA

The currrent version is 1.0.1, which was released in April2006. IMPORTANT: this software is offered without any warranty orsupport. Some people may still find it interesting or even useful, but:

Qualitative data analysis software open source

it is not for major projects like a PhD thesis.
Version 1.0.1 does contain bugs that can occasion the loss of datain your analysis, or make the project file unreadable, so
If you use Weft QDA in earnest, you should regularly make aback-up of your project (the .qdp file).
(Jun 2014) Since Weft QDA was developed, free (but not open source)versions of some commercial software have emerged(e.g. QDA Miner Lite).

For Windows

Weft QDA 1.0.1 was developed for Windows XP, but may work on newerversions. Windows users should download this installer which containseverything you need to use Weft. It’s available to download viaSoftpedia’s Weft QDA page.

Weft QDA download[2.66MB - version 1.0.1 - 26/04/2006]

Save the installer somewhere on your hard disk, then double-click thesaved icon to run the installer. Follow the on-screen instructions.

Using 1.0.1 on Linux

Unfortunately, Weft QDA 1.0.1 depends on such old versions of systemlibraries (e.g. GTK) that it is very difficult or impossible to run WeftQDA 1.0.1 on a modern Linux distro. The source was hosted on RubyForge,but the site no longer exists. There is historic information on installation options and prerequisites.

The best way to run Weft QDA on Linux is to useWINE. C Lejeune offers furtherinformation on Weft QDA on (Debian) Linux.

Getting started and getting help

Kaspersky antivirus 19.0.0.1088 crack. The Weft QDA Manual is the best place to start learning howto use the software. This manual is also availableas a PDF for printing or on-screenviewing. Documentation in a variety of formats is included in thedownloadable packages for off-line browsing.

There is also aspanish translation of the manual,courtesy of M. Cecilia Martínez.

I’m afraid there is no support for using Weft QDA; the mailing listpreviously on Rubyforge is no longer operational. Please don’t email medirectly with requests for help using Weft QDA; I’m afraid I won’treply.

History and Future

Weft QDA was originally written out of curiosity whilst completing aMasters in Social Research Methodsat the University of Surrey in 2004. I was annoyed by over-priced andover-complex commercial CAQDAS. Flixgrab serial key. The software was tidied up anddocumented, and then first released in 2005.

Development / Abandonment

I did a lot of work towards a version 2.0 of Weft QDA, and got as faras a basic alpha release. Version 2.0 was going to add support formultilingual text, photos, audio and video documents, along with othernew features and interface improvements, and was going to work well onOS X and modern Linux distros. However, I haven’t done any seriousdevelopment on Weft QDA since early 2009, and it’s unlikely I’ll resumeat any time soon. I’m just inte
