Why/How do I Need to Setup Quotas?

In-survey quotas are important for several reasons:

  1. Real-time Monitoring – Setting quotas within your survey allows you to track data collection progress instantly, eliminating the need to contact us for updates. 
  2. Preventing Oversampling – Quotas help control the distribution of participants within your study. While we can regulate the total number of participants entering your study, we cannot control participant behavior once they begin. Factors such as screen-outs, drop-offs, or inactivity can impact completion rates, making in-survey quota management the most reliable approach. 

If you’re setting up your quotas in Qualtrics, here is a helpful guide.
