Analyze different data types in projects

Dovetail isn't just for surfacing findings in video and interview notes. Learn how to analyze documents and spreadsheet data brought in from OneDrive, Google Drive, Zoom, and Zapier and enrich your customer understanding further.

Conduct secondary research and draw connections between your customer data and broader industry trends. Bring in existing documentation, academic papers, presentations, and market and competitor reports as raw data in your notes to be tagged and surfaced in your insights.

You can upload documents into notes from your device, Google Drive or OneDrive.

• To do this, open your project, go to Notes and select Import data → Browse.

• Once your document is uploaded, open the note and preview your document to tag.

Supported document types include:

• PDFs (.pdf)

• Microsoft Word documents (.docx)

• Microsoft Powerpoint files (.pptx)

• Keynote presentations (.key)

• Apple Pages (.pages)

• Google cloud documents, sheets, slides or drawings. They will be imported as a static PDF.

You can also create multiple notes at once from a spreadsheet. This is handy for importing data like NPS feedback, survey responses, and customer feedback to bring in to Dovetail.
