Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Ensighten Manage is being used by the web department to support tagging needs throughout the company. It address the need for fast implementation and ease of adjusting code without having to go through the process of a full web migration. It also enables us to test how different scripts will perform on production without committing them to the production environment.
Pros
  • Ensighten Manage deploys very fast and won't slow your page.
  • Ensighten Manage has a very wide range of precoded apps letting even novice users be successful.
  • Ensighten Manage allows full customization so very advanced scripts can be run.
Cons
  • Using multiple triggers to fire a tag is a challenge.
  • Setting the timing/order of how scripts fire can be confusing and hard to predict.

  • Increased efficiency and accuracy of deploying tags.
  • Increased efficiency of troubleshooting and fixing broken/misfiring tags.
Alternatives Considered
The products are comparable. Each has strengths and weaknesses. At the end of the day their job is to fire tags and they both do that well.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Our organization uses Ensighten Manage for digital marketing tagging within the Marketing department.
Pros
  • Ensighten Manage does a great job of posting release notification and system updates within the UI. This allows direct access to upcoming release notes as well as access to refer back to previous release notes.
  • Ensighten Manage support team does a great job of assisting the non-technical users. I am in contact with support on at least a weekly basis and they even jump on a call if I need a little extra assistance.
  • Ensighten Manage user conference offers a broad range of hands-on training
Cons
  • The UI times out after a short amount of time. I understand that this is for security purposes but should be able to be configured by each account
  • Not able to delete a condition until all of the deployments assigned to it are removed.
  • Not able to publish across spaces/environments
Likelihood to Recommend
Ensighten Manage works well for third party digital marketing tags and pixels. We currently do not use it for analytics tagging.

Return on Investment
  • Ensighten Manage has enabled the business team to implement marketing tags/pixel within a week turn around. Previously these were written requests that were implemented by the development teams.
  • Our homepage load times decreased from 6.4 seconds to 4.8 seconds after the initial implementation.

Ensighten Manage offered more reporting options at the time.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Our company transitioned to Ensighten Manage 2.0 fairly recently in an effort to streamline the process of implementing new tracking pixels. The key users in our situation are the marketing specialists and analytsts, who will be using the tool to manage tracking deployments for a variety of partners. Although we are still in the early stages, the obvious benefits of using tag management technology in the long term will include ease of implementations for non-technical employees, streamlined removal and maintenance of existing code deployments, and the ability to work with the consultants from Ensighten to mitigate risk of impact on user experience. Furthermore, it will allow both large and small-scale modifications with targeted scope without the need to slow the backlog of development efforts on the client-side, meaning our internal resources can focus on improving the website while marketing and non-technical folks handle the portfolio of partners.
Pros
  • Reduces reliance on IT and developers to add, remove, or manage code
  • Enables non-technical users to actively manage their own tracking deployments
  • Ensighten support is particularly helpful in implementation projects
  • Fast, safe removal of code if issues to arise
Cons
  • Could benefit from more details change logging
  • Would like to see better filtering/search approaches for deployments (ie - search in code, etc.)
  • Deployments don't publish immediately, so any reduction in time here would be an improvement
Likelihood to Recommend
Ensighten, as with any tag management solution, is not always the right solution. If you own/operate/maintain a site that already has sufficient development resources to manage it, you already have a significant number of 'deployments' on your site, or if you are not in a financial situation that can support the cost, Ensighten may not be for you. Case-in-point, if you are working for a small start-up and your site has limited functionality - especially non-e-commerce - moving code into tag management is probably not worth the cost because you likely don't drive enough traffic to necessitate that kind of oversight. In these cases, you may only have a single tracking method (such as Google Analytics), and using Ensighten would be overkill.

However, if you are starting fresh with a high-traffic site, you have limited dev resources, and you have specific types of tracking you know you want to put in place, Ensighten might be the way to go. With Ensighten, you will be able to have non-technical folks place code deployments into the tool without clogging the backlog of dev work, and speedup the time to delivery.
Return on Investment
  • Allows for a single point-of-reference of all tracking deployments as opposed to having multiple teams editing the site at once
  • Simplified the code by placing a bootstrap rather than multiple lines for each pixel
  • In some cases negatively impacted page load time
  • Does require training to understand how to use the UI/Technology
  • Non-developers feel more involves/connected the site itself
  • Encourages relationships across the organization because the deployments effect multiple team, as opposed to being silo'd as 'devs' or 'analysts' or 'managers'
Alternatives Considered
I have no means for comparison except to say that Manage 2.0 has many improvements from Manage 1.0. The UI improvements alone make it a good switch, and the ability to use the apps to templatize deployments is a great feature.

For the volume of tracking pixels that we plan to implement it only makes sense for us to continue. At this point, development is benefiting significantly from not being bogged down with writing tracking pixel code and the marketing team(s) enjoy being able to stay connected to their tool deployments. As the portfolio of tracking methods increases, the usage of Ensighten will increase with it.
