Archive: List of Lab Manager Surveys
Strategic MarketingMarket Research
From 2011 to 2018, Lab Manager Magazine was a prolific publisher of surveys on laboratory equipment, instruments, and software. They often posted multiple surveys per month, each briefly assessing scientists’ utilization and preferences for a particular laboratory technology.
These surveys amounted to free market research. While they are now somewhat outdated, they can still be useful for historical context — tracking preference changes over time or comparing against more current data. Lab Manager does not offer an easily sortable directory, so we built one here.
