ConvertFlow vs. OpenText Optimost

I'd say just about every marketing application can benefit from ConvertFlow's features and flexibility. Some step-by-step logic form builders limit what you can have on each step, ConvertFlow leaves that totally up to you which is a huge plus. If you use Keap as your CRM, it is especially helpful as not all systems have a direct connection like this does. If there's an area it may be less suited than other specific tools, I'd say maybe survey forms. You certainly CAN build them, but there are other tools for that which create an easier experience building and for the user.

The ease of implementation combined with the managed services result in a tool that virtually anyone can use - implementation is less than 10 lines of code added to the relevant pages of the website (we simply added it to our master page template to have it available on any page) and from there the customer can be as involved or not involved as they wish. At BSI we are very hands on with the testing programme - usually developing and designing the tests ourselves and having HP build them, but if we wanted to HP to develop, design and build and limit our role to QA and review that is an option.

• Because it is a managed service the need for intervention by our internal IT group was removed. This allowed us to control the pace of the testing programme without being influenced by IT resource allocation
• The client and technical account managers are very good at suggesting tests or potential improvements
• HP regularly holds custom forums which are always informative and provide an opportunity to learn from and network with peers and industry leaders

• lead source from Google - can't tell paid vs organic
• Some custom fields in forms require duplicating or re-setting up across forms - could used custom saved questions library
• From landing pages, opening a pop-up requires building a pop-up outside the page. this is good when multiple pages use the same pop-up but in other cases can be time-consuming to exit the page, build, then go back and finish the page. small detail really but worth knowing about
• you can set up custom URLs, but so far no option to integrate, for instance, into WordPress and give a landing page your actual URL. So instead of "domain.com/page" you have to use "go.domain.com/page" or something like that. would be nice to keep it within my URL in some cases.

• The dashboard interface is difficult to navigate, but I understand that they are currently developing/testing a new much more user friendly interface
• The cost can be a barrier for some organisations, but for us it is worth it. Also they are in the process of releasing a less expensive self authoring testing tool.

We have not only renewed our subscription three years running, but we have added the self authoring tool and are looking to expand the subscription so that we can take advantage of the managed services on a global level.

All of these I used for different, specific purposes. ConvertFlow accomplishes ALL of those purposes and does them well. There might be an area or two where others excel, but you end up needing more than one tool to accomplish the same results as ConvertFlow can do in one tool.

We evaluated Optimost again Adobe's similar offering (Target). The big difference between the two and the reason why BSI choose Autonomy was the managed service aspect. The idea that once the code was deployed on the site IT no longer had to be involved gave my team full ownership of the testing programme. With the Adobe product, the involvement of the internal IT group would have been required to launch each test - and this would have decreased the number of tests we could run each month. Back in the day I also used offermatica/omniture and this too required IT involvement.

• Saves my team a TON of time. we've used form tools before that generated results but took a whole afternoon to properly set up. My team can set up new forms or a/b test designs in minutes.
• Signup optimization is now attainable for many team members. Even my designers can easily test their own work, you don't have to have a deep data analysis to see what's working
