About NVivo

NVivo is software for analyzing qualitative data such as interview transcripts, observation notes, documents, open-ended survey responses, and social media content. It allows you to organize, code, and systematically explore patterns in non-numerical data.

Unlike statistical software that processes numbers, NVivo helps researchers manage large volumes of text and identify recurring themes. It does not perform the analysis automatically — interpretation remains the researcher’s responsibility.
