While Quest collects data for thousands of ad hoc consumer studies weekly, a
long-standing fixture in consumer research lies in the brand tracking and
awareness survey space. Whether it is music rating, product testing or
shopping experiences you are after, Quest is the industry leader for consumer
tracking studies. Quest understands distinctly the difference between
actionably trending data and how to sample that effectively, vs. poor
sample strategies that result in tracking data with major deviations and
spikes in brand awareness and segment-able data.
Quest’s healthcare panels are built with great attention to detailed patient profiles, aiding researchers in their access to thousands of documented medical conditions and other personal attributes. Working closely with established health network partnerships, the healthcare dedicated panel management team identifies and enlists individuals suffering from specific ailments and conditions.
