Adobe Test and Target is an A/B, multi-variate testing platform which Adobe acquired as part of the Omniture platform in 2009. It is now part of the Adobe Marketing Cloud. It offers tight integration with Adobe analytics and content management products.https://media.trustradius.com/product-logos/V1/nr/BNKFU2DZMX77.PNGAdobeA+ testing and targeting product!2019-09-12T16:24:58.538ZWe are using Adobe Target for testing experiences on our website and hope to start personalization for customers via Target in the near future. Target is currently being used by one team in our Marketing department at the moment.,Onsite A/B testing!
Fully integrated Adobe Cloud allows us to use cloud data (analytics, audience, etc.) in our testing.,We struggle sometimes about which reporting tool to use with Target—either Target reporting or Adobe Analytics reporting. There are benefits for both but also reasons not to use one of the solutions.
Previewing when not using the Target reporting can be a challenge.,10,Savings of time and resources due to the ability to test with customers.,Optimizely,8,Adobe Analytics, Adobe Campaign, Adobe Experience ManagerVerified UserExtremely flexible but work needed on documentation2014-04-17T22:44:43.695ZThe Web Analytics team are the power users of Test& Target - we're running tests for the entire company across the main website and inside our desktop applications.,Advanced targeting capabilities - TnT allows you to write your own JavaScript/Rhino code in situations when the out-of-the-box features aren't enough.
Integration with SiteCatalyst - test data is pushed into SiteCatalyst for comprehensive reporting.
Rapid test creation - this can be achieved via "local" HTML offers, redirects or referencing AEM/CQ5 components.,Documentation - the current docs are fine for the basics but when you want to do the advanced stuff it sucks and Client Care aren't that helpful with the tricky questions.
Standard - the new 'Standard' WYSIWYG version of TnT is very new so I'll be kind however it's full of bugs and unusable - hopefully this will be fixed soon as it looks to have a lot of potential.
QAing your tests - the Onsite feature has never worked properly in all the time I have used it. I've been told by people at Adobe not to use the feature.,9,Increased employee efficiency - testing happens very quickly now, sometimes in minutes! Before it took weeks or months going through Technology.
More testing means increased learnings and revenue.,4,4,Testing new creative for driving incremental revenue.

For different types of offers for geographically divided customers we addressed using Adobe Test and Target. It was used by our Information Technology department. We had a marketing team who wanted to maximize business and provide offers and special coupons to their customers. For this requirement we used Adobe Test and Target.,A/B testing
Rules-based targeting
Recommendations and cross-selling
Search-driven merchandising
Automated behavioral targeting and Multivariate testing,Need to make it more user friendly.,9,It is an expensive tool so sometimes if it is not useful to attract customers then it is expensive for a company budget. So you need to minimize license fees for small and start up businesses.,Maxymiser,Monetate,Optimizely,7,Yes,8,No,During my engagement for Adobe T&T product with Adobe guys , they were providing better details to properly fit product to get maximum use.Varun ShahExpensive, inaccurate, and 70% not useful.2013-09-03T23:00:15.127ZThe product interface is very easy to use. Tests are easy to set up and manage.,From the development standpoint, tests are not any easier to set up than they would be manually. They actually are more complicated and provide more work to our development team.
The software is extremely expensive. You cannot segment your tests or campaigns by geo-targeting, for example, unless you pay extra for that portion of the package.
Customer service was easy to get into contact with, but your consulting time with them is very limited, and they weren't always knowledgeable about the issues you needed help with.
The software is mainly centered around the "Target" portion of the product (I would say about 75% of the product is devoted to this). Once testing completes, there are many options to push your winning campaigns live and target them to specific segments. Unfortunately this adds to the expense of the software; you pay by impressions. We also use an external ad display software. For these reasons, we did not use any of the targeting portion of the product, which left 75% of it unusable.
Test results are real-time, but we found they weren't always accurate. For example, when we would implement the winning campaign from a test, we often found no drastic improvement in conversion, or sometimes it even converted worse.,Our site is primarily motivated to generate more traffic and conversions (leads) for our clients. In using this software, we had hoped to optimize our traffic and lead generating pieces so that we maximized signups.,1,3,This product is used for A/B testing to help optimize conversions across our site.,,Implemented in-house,2,Online training

Self-taught,9,4,You can get the basics from self-training, but you miss a lot of the additional features and details without doing a formal training. If a company is going to seriously invest and use this software, I highly recommend you pay for a trainer to come and help you.,4Sarah SchickAdobe T&T2013-10-23T18:13:52.548ZIt tracks and monitors visitors, conversion and dozens of site metrics. T&T allows us to present several different experiences to consumers while monitoring the success of each change.,It does not always work with other software platforms such as Demandware.,T&T has increased revenue for my company by helping identify areas our site can improve. We have generated an additional $10 million plus in revenue.,10,9,5,3,We use T&T to do A/B testing across a variety of different websites.,Professional services company,7,In-person training,8,We needed some unique configuration based on our company's business model.,Yes,3,6,7,7,Demandware.,,Charged based on Mboxs firing.

Ease of use for marketers, but ability to become more complex for technical web development.,Needs to be integrated with Adobe Marketing Suite, primarily SiteCatalyst. Does not even integrate well with the suite even though it is from the same product line.
Can get very confusing and detailed. Need to spend a good bit of time training on it.
Adobe recommends mBoxes around each area you want to test. This is not needed, save your time and money and place a global mBox on the page and run tests with some basic JavaScript and jQuery.,8,Increased bookings.
Increased Conversions Rates.
Ability to implement personalization models.
Integrate with 3rd party solutions such as Jira, Qlikview, etc. but took good bit of development to do.,Used primarily for A/B and Multivariate testing. Then used as a very agile CMS to get content pushed to site without backend changes to the page structure.,Used as a CMS due to ability to quickly launch new creatives & copy
