Features of Photos include powerful image editing tools that are considered more robust than those previously available in iPhoto.

The Qualtrics Research Suite is an advanced online surveying tool.  It allows users to build a survey using drag and drop tools.  Survey authors can select from varying types of questions including multiple choice, true/false, write-in, matching, check-all-that-apply, organize lists, and more.  Authors can also build in logic such as if/then to create responsive surveys that react dynamically with how the users answer.  Surveys can be taken all within a browser window and can accept forms of authentication to segment intended audiences.  At the conclusion of the survey, authors have a suite of analytic tools available to pull statistics from the received data.
