iZooto vs. VWO Engage

iZooto is well suited to any web property that needs to nurture its relationship with users and needs another channel besides email, social media, and paid retargeting. Because of its integration with WordPress, WooCommerce, and Shopify, it's perfect for ECOM sites and other consumer-facing sites. But I can see it work well for a B2B / saas company too. In short, it makes repeat visits much more likely.

If you have a large or small blog following/audience, this is an excellent tool to help keep readers engaged and on top of your new content releases. You can also utilize this product for automated DRIP campaigns that will, following a schedule you create, notify users at preset intervals to help nurture your leads or existing customers as part of your sales funnel. Even new bloggers with smaller audiences can utilize a tool like this to help generate more consistent web traffic to your content. I am averaging a +16% clickthrough rate regularly on my RSS to push notifications after just a few months of use.

• Easy-to-use admin system; even non-technical team members could understand what to do without training.
• Flexibility of configuration and visual previews of what the alert experience would be like made it easy explain options before implementation
• Segment system and API gave us enough control to serve notifications in the right language, which was important for our multi-lingual website

• Their WordPress plugin works but is a bit glitchy when you try to override a post's default settings in the notification
• More opportunities to brand the opt in prompt would be great -- with, say, our logo, though I am not sure it's supported by browsers
• There is no clear way to UNSUBSCRIBE from prompts, unlike with OneSignal.

• I can tell they are based somewhere on the other side of the world, so when it's middle of the day here in the USA, they aren't always very responsive.
• There have been a couple hiccups with billing issues that mainly stemmed from them not having an internal billing system, but had it outsourced to another company.

They were on top of things right away when I reported an issue with their WordPress plugin, or when I needed to switch from Shopify to WordPress. Very hands-on and responsive. They have built-in live chat support in their app, though it would be nice if they incorporated it into their WordPress plugin too, so I didn't have to leave WordPress to report issues.

Their support staff are experts who are beyond helpful! I needed support with a certificate issue, after migrating one of our sites from HTTP to HTTPS, They handled it and helped very effectively, absolutely loved the cooperation. They saved me a lot of time with guiding me over the issues and I didn't needed to search on forums and read technical documentation on my own.

We use a few more tools regularly, but specifically for browser push we found iZooto to be the most focused player and the pricing to be reasonable. The monetization layer that they provide for publishers like us is a big value add. We continue to use different tools for analytics, funnels and other marketing automations.

Incentivized

• iZooto gives us a good % of our overall traffic by bringing a lot of returning users.
• iZooto contributes a healthy chunk of our ad revenues.

Incentivized

• More return. In general the people who sign like the notifications and usually return.
• Organic growth. The list of subscribers increase over time, so is a well worth the investment.
• It's a bit expensive, so the ROI at the beginning is not the expected because the cost.
