Instruqt's 2026 State of Developer Adoption Report, fielded by SlashData, finds hands-on labs make developers approximately 50% more likely to reach productivity within two months.
AMSTERDAM, June 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Instruqt, the hands-on adoption platform used by software companies to onboard developers, customers, and prospects, today released its annual report, The State of Developer Adoption – the first independent benchmark of how marketing, sales, and education teams are responding to the widening gap between the pace of AI feature releases and the pace at which customers can actually adopt them.
The report, fielded by SlashData 2026 across 424 marketing, sales, and developer education practitioners at North American software companies, found that 92% of respondents face at least one significant developer adoption challenge. The most cited causes point to an operational problem, not a product one: misalignment across teams (27%), technology complexity (26%), and the difficulty of keeping content accurate as products ship weekly (25%).
