    Siteimprove works well for managing the health and performance of your customer-facing sites in terms of performance, digital experience, and accessibility. It also helps to define policies to proactively avoid experience breaks or issues for customers before they occur. It can improve by providing more options to configure policies for large sites with thousands of pages.

    Pros
    Siteimprove
    • User-friendly customisable dashboards, easy to make a dashboard from a template, or create your own, and add in whichever 'widgets' are relevant for what you are looking at
    • Flagging words to review, allowing users to check and confirm if the word is 'accepted' or is a misspelling

    • Customized marketing checklist is incredible!
    • The way UpCity verifies items in your marketing checklist (like whether you have social accounts, you're on Google, etc,) helps my business, and others, save precious time having to manually verify them yourself.
    • I love the impact scores and estimated time shown on each task to give us a feel of how much we are doing each month and what value that time spent is.
    • The "about" and "how to" section on tasks makes it very clear how to accomplish each task.

    Cons
    Siteimprove
    • I don't like that there are different navigation paths to go from point A to point B. When I want to navigate to a specific place, I have more than one way to get there, which means I have to make a decision about how I want to there and I'd rather the designer make that design based on what would be most efficient for me.

    • Unwillingness to help dissatisfied customers
    • Unwillingness to address issues
    • False advertising regarding the number of click throughs and leads
    • Rude customer service reps that don’t help with your issues
    • Expensive service
    • Little value for money

    Usability
    Siteimprove
    Tool has undergone numerous changes, both to function and UX/CX. Makes it less than user friendly at times. But on the other hand, that does indicate a willingness to improve the product in a continual manner - which they've done nearly year after year - but it's always a case of who moved my cheese with each new iteration.

    Usability is mediocre: They have a dashboard to track things but they have some antiquated system of ranking companies and don’t tell you what the logic is behind it. You also have no way to combat negative ratings or respond and try to correct them.

    Support Rating
    Siteimprove
    I've used support often and it has been responsive, thorough and considerate of our needs. I can get a tech right away, they understand the issue, and work with us to resolve it. Often the problem is with the site we are trying to scan, sometimes it is with their product. I appreciate that they go beyond support into continually helping us implement SiteImprove in more places with 3rd party integration.

    I received little help from customer service rep, Sarah. She told me I should speak to a manager to “reset my expectations”. Apparently, all the sales promises of more traffic and increase SEO were an issue with my expectations, and not the company failing to deliver.

    Siteimprove
    We have used or tested other tools that get installed on a computer or that are hosted online, but none of them offer the features that come with Siteimprove. TotalValidator Pro will check your site for accessibility issues, but it is a manual check and there is no historical reporting. I can;t remember the names of the other online solutions, but even if they offered similar features as Siteimprove, they were all very expensive .

    Return on Investment
    Siteimprove
    • Siteimprove has helped bring our accessibility scores up from middling to near-perfect.
    • Siteimprove has helped reduce our broken links, style violations and misspellings.

    • UpCity was costly for us because we were small. If we were a 10 person agency, the price would be right in line with what we need.
    • UpCity has taught us many processes we needed to continue helping our clients be successful.
