Internet Access

Internet access to all "I Opt" reports is available by subscription. Clients can select and obtain whatever reports they want when thew want them. The turnaround time is very fast (usually under 10 minutes) and finished reports are delivered by email.

All subscribers get a database containing the information on all of the surveys they administered. The client database is private and local to them. It can only be accessed with a user code and password.

Web Access

Database information can be recalled on demand and reused to construct different teams or to explore different combinations of people. This is especially valuable in dynamic organizations where teams/departments/groups are formed or adjusted to meet changing demands.

Clients have two internet access options. Under an unlimited use option clients pay one fee. They can access as many reports as they wish, as frequently as they wish and without additional charge. New reports are automatically included with the service. They are made available as soon as they are released from beta testing.

Direct Access clients pay a small setup fee and agree to a small minimum monthly payment. They have the same access as the Unlimited Users but pay full retail for each report that they run. If usage fees fall short of the agreed upon minimum the difference is billed. If usage fees exceed the agreed upon minimum, the monthly fee is not charged.

Clients who do not wish to commit to specific usage can access any of the "I Opt" reports by having them run by the staff of Professional Communications Inc. ("PCI"-the owner of "I Opt" technology). The "I Opt" Survey information can be transmitted by email, fax, snail-mail or any other method the client chooses. PCI staff will run the requested reports and return them by email usually in under 24 hours. Billing for this service will be at full retail and payment by credit card is preferred but invoices can be arranged for larger orders.

Whatever method is chosen, clients can be assured that PCI and its staff are fully committed to meeting client needs. Clients can be assured that their phone calls will be answered, their emails will be replied to and any concerns will be promptly addressed.

Access to "I Opt" via the internet on either a Unlimited or Direct Access basis can be obtained by contacting Professional Communications Inc. You will be given your options and will be quoted specific prices that you can consider. PCI does not "sell" but rather provides information. The technology will typically sell itself.

Individual instance users can obtain the report from Professional Communications Inc. (the owner of "I Opt" technology) in any manner preferred by the client (e.g., email, fax, surface mail, private courier, telephone, etc.). Turnaround time is usually less than 24 hours. Contact us for the specific means available for you to choose from.
