Research Methodology
Visant studies are the result of primary and secondary research. Analysts
gather information via interviews with marketing and engineering executives
and through corporate reports, databases, and other secondary sources.
Evaluations are made based on the current performance of various components of
a particular technology, including need or expected need, market potential,
technology evolution, maturation, price points, and the companies and
resources being put towards the development or deployment as well as political
considerations, when necessary.
