NVivo Qualitative software from QSR International may be usefull.

I have NVivo for MAC and it doesn't support the Framework Method. Other ideas?

Here is a link to a video on how to use the Framework analysis in NVivo http://explore.qsrinternational.com/framework-analysis-in-nvivo 

Dedoose (a web-based analyziing software) is also good and very reasonably priced.  Student rate is $11 a month  http://www.dedoose.com/

Thanks Vickie--unfortunately, I have a MAC and NVivo for Mac doesn't support Framework analysis yet. Thanks for the other resource!

MAXQDA probably has the most equivalence between its MAC and Windows versions. ATLAS.ti is pretty much equivalent with regard to coding and basic searching, but it does not yet offer more complex searches on the MAC.

What specific features do you need in order to Framework analysis?

Hi David, thanks for replying to me question! I would like to be able to see my quotes/coded text in the matrix and also be able to export to excel.

MAXQDA will definitely do both of those things

Thank you David, I will look into it!

Hi Heather

I've just come up against the same issue. I think that my best option may be to use the Windows version of Nvivo on my Mac using VMware, which I have anyway (my institution has own-use licences for mac and Windows versions). There is a pedigree for the Nvivo version from the UK NatCen that is useful. 

I do find Nvivo non-intuitive tho', so I'd be interested in any other solutions that you have found.
