Business Challenge
Dr. Marion Underwood, Professor of Psychology at UT Dallas’ Center for Children and Families, has been conducting a multi-year study on adolescents’ social networks and their impact on development. The study required an enterprise-grade solution that could deliver a reliable, economical messaging platform and handle high volumes of data – all the while helping to protect the privacy and confidentiality of the participants.
Solution
- Dr. Underwood’s research team chose a BlackBerry® hosted solution from Ceryx based on its ability to provide a controlled environment for their research.
- To ensure accuracy, the project required a customized messaging solution that could meet a high volume of messages with archival and search functionality.
Results
- Easy access to large amounts of data
- Relatively trouble–free management with the Ceryx messaging platform
- Helps to meet privacy and confidentiality needs of the study’s participants
- A platform for ongoing research to provide insight into adolescent peer culture
