Advanced Survey Logic & Version Control
Use Mazetec's 'maze' as an intelligent container to deliver multiple surveys with conditional routing, version control, and complex logic. Build consent flows, demographic routing, pre/post assessment sequences, and adaptive survey paths—all managed in one unified experience.
Maze Container = Survey Logic Engine
Start
Consent Survey v2.1
Version locked
IF consent = No
Exit
IF consent = Yes

Surveys + Logic = Powerful Research Tool
Most survey platforms give you one survey with basic branching. Mazetec gives you a container (the "maze") that can hold multiple surveys, control which versions to use, route between them based on responses, and deliver complex multi-stage research protocols.
Multi-survey sequences — Consent → Demographics → Survey A → Survey B in one flow
Version control per survey — Lock to specific version or always use "latest"
Conditional routing between surveys — Route based on ANY prior response
Reusable survey components — Use same consent form across 20 mazes
Unified analytics — Track entire journey, not just individual surveys
Complex Research Made Simple
Academic Research Protocol
1
Informed Consent Form
IRB-approved consent (locked to v3.2 for audit trail)
IF consent declined → End with thank you message
2
Demographic Screener
Age, gender, education level
IF under 18 → Disqualify (ethics requirement)
IF qualified → Continue to treatment group assignment
3
Random Treatment Assignment
System assigns participant to Control or Treatment group
IF Control → Survey Version A
IF Treatment → Survey Version B
4
Post-Study Debrief
Explain study purpose, provide resources
Result: IRB-compliant multi-stage research protocol in one deliverable
Employee Feedback System
1
Department & Role Survey
Identify department, role level, tenure
Routes to department-specific questions
2
Core Satisfaction Survey
Universal questions (latest version always used)
All employees see same questions
3
Department-Specific Follow-up
Targeted questions based on Step 1
IF Sales → Sales-specific survey
IF Engineering → Engineering-specific survey
IF Manager → Additional leadership questions
4
Action Planning (Optional)
If satisfaction score < 7, offer to provide specific feedback
Result: Personalized feedback experience for 1,000+ employees
Survey Version Control: Why It Matters
Locked to Specific Version
Choose when you need consistency across all responses, even if the survey is updated later.
Example:
"Consent Form v3.2" — IRB-approved version. Even if you update the consent form to v3.3 later, this maze will ALWAYS use v3.2 for audit compliance.
Use for: Compliance, research, audited processes
Always Use "Latest" Version
Choose when you want the maze to automatically use the most recent version of a survey whenever someone starts.
Example:
"Customer Satisfaction Survey (latest)" — You improve the survey weekly. Every new participant automatically gets the newest version without updating the maze.
Use for: Iterative improvement, ongoing feedback collection
Build Once, Use Everywhere
Reusable Survey Components
Consent Form v3.2
Used in 23 mazes
Demographics Survey
Used in 45 mazes
Satisfaction NPS
Used in 67 mazes
Benefit: Update the consent form once → all 23 mazes instantly get the update (if using
"latest")
What You Can Do with Multi-Survey Containers
Conditional Survey Routing
Send participants to Survey A or Survey B based on their answers to ANY previous question in the flow.
Example: "IF age > 65 → Senior survey, ELSE → General survey"
Parallel Survey Branches
Create multiple paths where participants see different survey sequences based on treatment groups, demographics, or screening criteria.
Example: Control group → Survey A, Treatment group → Survey B
Time-Delayed Survey Sequences
Pause between surveys with instructional content, videos, or scenario nodes before continuing to next survey.
Example: Pre-test → Training module → Post-test
Consent & Compliance Flows
Enforce consent, screening, and eligibility checks before allowing access to main survey content.
Example: Must accept terms AND be 18+ to proceed
Unified Journey Analytics
Track entire participant journey across multiple surveys: completion rates, drop-off points, time spent, and response correlations.
Example: See where most participants abandon multi-stage process
Custom Experience Per Path
Different branding, instructions, and feedback messages for different survey paths within same container.
Example: Student path has casual tone, Executive path is formal
Combine with Other Mazetec Features
