Ensighten Manage is a versatile tool that is widely used by various teams, such as Digital Marketing, Internet Development, and IS Architecture. Users rely on this application to manage web analytics tagging on their internet-facing websites, allowing for fast implementation and easy adjustment of code. With Ensighten Manage, non-technical users can configure and deploy tags quickly without going through the lengthy web development patch cycle. This feature has been particularly useful for implementing new tracking pixels and deploying Omniture, Google, and Test and Target tags at Autodesk.com. Additionally, the software allows for testing different scripts on production without committing them to the environment, providing flexibility and control for users across multiple departments.

One of the key use cases of Ensighten Manage is its ability to streamline tag implementation for websites and social media pages. By consolidating tag management into one platform, users can easily implement and manage tags for multiple campaigns efficiently. The software addresses the problems associated with traditional tagging methods by making implementation much easier compared to coding each individual page separately. This has significantly improved the speed to market, accuracy, and performance of tag deployments for organizations using Ensighten Manage. Moreover, it enables users to reduce the time to deployment for web analytics tags while maintaining oversight and governance.

Another important use case of Ensighten Manage is its role as a tag manager for third-party tags and Target mbox tags. The software provides a solution to the problem of controlling JavaScript code for third parties and allows users to make changes more easily. This has been particularly beneficial for managing advertising needs across 200 different websites in one place. By consolidating multiple instances of tags into Ensighten Manage, organizations have improved governance management and reduced dependence on technology teams.

Overall, users have found Ensighten Manage to be a flexible and powerful tool that enables them to easily test, QA, and launch new or updated tags without involving IT teams. It has eliminated tight dependencies between website implementation and tagging code, providing users with more control and flexibility. Furthermore, the software has helped organizations become more agile in terms of delivery cycles for analytics tags by decoupling IT development cycles from tagging initiatives. This has resulted in faster deployment of analytics tags, making Ensighten Manage a valuable asset for the whole organization, particularly in the areas of analytics, third-party scripts injection, and TMS data management.

It is perfect when the marketing/analytics efforts are distinct from the site development efforts. It is also extremely valuable when the tagging changes regularly. For websites with limited tagging needs and fairly static deployments, Ensighten Manage does not provide much ROI.

Ensighten Manage is well suited for non-technical marketers to deploy basic static tags. However, complex dynamic tags such as analytics require knowledge of javascript and more technical resources to step in. We understand this is a challenge with any tag management system (TMS). Also, we realize Ensighten Manage is a powerful tool and if not used appropriately, can lead to site performance issues. Therefore good governance and best practices are necessary with any TMS.

Ensighten manage can be setup to be used by non technical business users. However the product provides a lot of flexibility by the way of custom custom Javascript and HTML tags, and advanced features like events, which needs coding experience as well as understanding of web technologies. Ensighten mobile is also a promising tool, but so far we have not had any luck setting it up, mainly due to challenges with Android setup.

Getting Manage and its deployments to work in a single-page app (in our case, Angular) has been challenging because of deployment load sequences and reliance on named events to execute functions. Because of scoping issues it'd be helpful to be able to pass variables through these events as parameters, but at the moment it can't be done. This has prevented us from fully uploading some of our tracking logic to Ensighten as we'd like and it remains in our own codebase.

Ensighten Manage is well suited for large companies, with complex tag solutions and several vendors. A small site with a couple of tags would probably not need something as robust.

Ensighten is well suited for quickly deploying codes wherein more dependencies are involved with other groups to push out analytics codes in general. Ensighten Manage is less suited for, at least currently, auto correcting and optimizing for bad codes being provided by multiple sources. This is definitely an avenue for improvement.

Ensighten Manage is more suited in deploying analytics and marketing/advertising tags due to the dynamic nature of these types of tools. Is also great for vetting new vendors and their tools/apps and conducting proof of concepts ahead of full on deployments.

Ensighten Manage is very useful when we need to place click tags on a page, or apply standard page level tracking to a page by merely inserting a single line of code. The greatly facilitates the analytics process for our developers.

Ensighten Manage is less useful when a data layer is not specifically created for the tool. We scraped the page for some elements, but we are not getting full value out of the tool as a result.

Ensighten works very well for small tags that are easy to implement and are not affected by other tags or data from the page. It is also very helpful for managing our ad tags. Seems less appropriate for very complicated/large tags which are generated by multiple parameters from the website, like digital analytics. Because this tag is so complicated and has so many parameters it can be difficult to generate all this complexity in Ensighten. It also doesn't seem to work very well if you are not using the American version of IBM Digital Analytics, which we are not.

Ensighten is well suited for those who need a very full featured and robust tag management tool. I would assume that it would be best suited for larger organizations, but could also work well for smaller institutions as well.

Ensighten is perfect for a large organization that needs flexibility with the type of tags they deploy, and needs to control who has access to manage those tags. A company that is looking to consolidate their digital marketing operations and reduce the IT overhead involved in the tag deployment process would be hard pressed to find a more capable tool.

The single line of code required for Ensighten Manage makes it particularly easy to work with third party vendors. The simplicity of the code makes it easy for them to implement, and difficult to get wrong.

Well suited for most sites, especially enterprise level that tend to have a lot of code and need to ensure a high level of site performance. Mobile is appropriate as well but there are multiple methods to deploy in that space and need to be decided by your own internal teams and requirements.

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.
