Beacon is Decipher/ Decrypt’s survey and reporting suite that features an “easy-to-navigate, user-friendly interface and a comprehensive suite of custom survey tools for authoring and deploying professional online and mobile surveys.”

Kristin Luck, president of Decipher, said: “Annik licenses and supports a number of industry-leading software platforms and we’re excited that Beacon is now a key component of their toolset. Their ability to program on the Beacon platform will serve in supporting clients globally that are focused on quality offshore survey programming solutions.”
