3D scanner recommendation quiz template
Written the way a good sales engineer qualifies a scanner enquiry: object size, the detail the job needs, surfaces that defeat most scanners, and where the work happens. The last answer about what the scans are for routes each buyer to one of four results, and every earlier answer lands in your dashboard for the follow-up.

The conversation
What a respondent is asked, in order.
Not sure which 3D scanner fits your work? A few questions about what you scan, and we'll point you to the right kind.
What size are the objects you'll scan most often?
How fine does the detail need to be?
Will any of these surfaces come up? Pick all that apply.
Do you need the scan to capture colour and texture, not just shape?
Where will most of the scanning happen?
Put these in order, most important first.
Have you worked with 3D scan data before?
Roughly what budget are you working with?
Where should we send the specs for your match?

Questions to consider
- Which scanners in your range do you actually want to recommend, and what separates them for a buyer?
- Do you want inspection and large-site enquiries to reach a person before any product page?
- Should the budget ranges show real prices from your catalogue, or stay as tiers?
- Is a demo or a sample scan something you can offer at the end of each result?
How to use the responses
Read the surfaces and environment answers before anyone calls a lead: a buyer scanning black, shiny parts on site needs a different demo from one scanning resin prints on a desk. Sort by the use answer to see which result your quiz sends most people to, and check that you stock enough of it. Export to CSV to hand inspection and site-scanning leads to your technical team.
How to customize and share it
- 1Rename each result after the real model or product family you sell, and adjust the budget ranges to match your prices.
- 2Change the options in the final question if your range splits differently, keeping one branch per result.
- 3Embed the quiz on your scanner category page or share the link in replies to enquiries.
Frequently asked questions
What should a 3D scanner buyer ask before choosing one?
What they will scan, how big it is, how fine the detail must be, and what surfaces are involved. Where they scan and what they do with the data afterwards matters just as much as resolution.
Why ask about shiny, dark or clear surfaces?
Those surfaces reflect or absorb the light most scanners rely on, so they often need a different scanner type or a scanning spray. Knowing about them early avoids a disappointing first scan.
How does this quiz decide which scanner to recommend?
The final question about what the scans are for routes each person to one of four results. You can change the options and point each one at any result you write.
Can I use this quiz to collect sales leads?
Yes. The email question is optional, and every answer is saved to your dashboard so your team can follow up with the context already in hand.
