Bound vs. Medallia Digital Experience Analytics

I think the customer service and relationship we have with Get Smart Content is great

When we knew that there were some website issues, we were able to use Decibel Insights to really pinpoint the issue and then work on a fix. Again, if we are doing a CRO test then we could also use the tool for a similar reason. It is less suitable for complex websites or websites that are frequently changing, as a lot of support is required by the team and it takes a lot of admin to keep the Decibel Insights account working as effectively as it should.

• Heat mapping provides a great understanding of UI pain points/bugs
• Integration with analytics tools (we use Adobe) brings in analytics analysis as well
• Helps to understand the user journey and where dropoff is occurring

• When you set up a campaign you should be able to set up content while in the campaign.
• You should be able to set up new segments while in the campaign.

• Being able to create groups of segments would be useful.
• The interface for selecting page types needs more options, it can be difficult to use if you have lots of similar pages.
• Would be good if top level stats were presented in different ways, or in a more visual way (ie pie charts, graphs).
• Generating reports - it would be nice if I could export charts and graphs instead of just CSV files.

I've heard about some new features that are coming online soon to do with tracking forms. They also offer a lead tracking package that we haven't tried yet, but I'm keen to check out.

It has the inability to export subject line or ISP complaints that require manual pulling by each campaign when needed. Results from variable tests are also reported only as a percentage of chosen KPI (opens, clicks, etc.). There's no ability to see hard numbers from the tests or other metrics to determine the statistical significance or unintended results (maybe opens increased per the test, but we saw clicks or conversions were lower). On the other hand, Bound performs absolutely great.

I have used Hotjar before, and in comparison, the functionality and the abilities in Decibel Insights are so much more advanced. The only downside is the price difference between the two tools, but the adaptability and the customer support you get with Decibel Insights definitely make it a more manageable and long-term tool to integrate with your marketing activity.

• We have seen more traffic going to revenue generating sites after using Get Smart Content. I'm not sure of the dollar amount since that's a separate department, but traffic increasing is great.
• Engagement on our internal site has increased after implementing Get Smart Content. We are getting more views, comments and likes on our content than before.

• We have improved form fills, which has provided more sales leads
• We have been able to tweak UI elements to make the site more navigable so that users want to spend more time on the site
• We have been able to more quickly and efficiently identify bugs on our e-commerce pages, increasing order rates among users
