What do you like best about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

The straightforward approach for most things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

The non-reactive parts. E.g. parts that don't immediately reflect what I do. Plus not-so-great web (dev) related docs (most are for full stack). The not-so-great GTag/Analytics support within the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Optimizely Web Experimentation:

Read up on docs and experiment by doing trial and error. Also try and rely mostly on your local code and less on HTML/CSS/JS code that can be written within Optimizely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Optimizely Web Experimentation solving and how is that benefiting you?

We're doing A/B or multi-variant tests that are purely marketing related. It has helped us tremendously in doing split tests and assigning users to variations + testing all scenarios. Some minor issues with HTML elements that I created and have not been able to re-use on other parts (I know about blocks but these are not as modular as I hoped). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The checkout end of the funnel, where it will not reliably select elements if a cross domain issue is found. You cannot revisit changes as it has lost the DOM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

The aspect of Optimizely that I liked the most is how easy it is to create an experiment. As I do not come from an IT background I am not able to code, so having a tool that allows me to make small changes to a landing pages CTA for example is really powerful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

The ability to add comments about changes you have made would have been really useful. Sometimes it is difficult to keep track of the updates. you have made during the experiment phase! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Optimizely Web Experimentation:

Pricing can vary so definitely worth checking this beforehand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Optimizely Web Experimentation solving and how is that benefiting you?

We've mostly been using Optimizely to test our various CTAs on blog posts. Being able to test various positions, text and design of the CTA is really powerful for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

I like being able to visualise my A/B tests before setting them live Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

I dislike the execution means; we had to pause most of our tests because the tool did not integrate with our dynamic changes on a weekly basis. We could test basic copy changes but experienced difficulty executing other changes like imagery and URL changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Optimizely Web Experimentation:

Consider whether your Tech team is able to support the execution of your tests, as this is not a straightforward tool for a general Marketer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Optimizely Web Experimentation solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are trying to A/B test imagery and URL changes. We have realised that the segment size (only 10% of all users) is quite small and unfortunately does not provide us significant data for most of our tests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

I love the intuitive WYSIWYG for creating new tests and variants. As a marketing professional, it's helpful to make quick updates to copy or images on our site without the need to pull in our busy design experts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

There isn't much to dislike about the robust platform. The analytics can be a bit challenging, but if you spend the time to set up the experiment correctly at the beginning, it's smooth sailing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Optimizely Web Experimentation solving and how is that benefiting you?

Optimizely helps ensure that we're constantly evolving our website to drive the most significant amount of conversions, including self-serve sign-ups and contact us/lead forms from our site. I can make small changes to our site to see the long-term impact before implementing it on a broader scale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

Once implemented, ease of use is superior to other tools. Easy for non-technical roles to create, start, and analyze a new experiment. It's also easy to do the same with feature flagging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

Some of the overlap between experiments and feature flagging can be confusing. You of course need technical support to setup experiments and flags. I don't find the program management features helpful at all to our workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Optimizely Web Experimentation solving and how is that benefiting you?

Server side expeirmentation. Server side is best because it doesn't result in any page slow down or re-rendering on load. This has allowed us to enable experiments at scale and also instrument feature flags within our code, which we use for everything from slow roll-outs to releasing to internal audiences.
