IBM is dead
Return on Investment
- We spend too much time trying to work around bugs on the new UI.
- We spend too much time trying to figure out how to make certain segments work because support and the knowledge center are lackluster.
- Our sales rep is very unresponsive and leaves us searching for a lot of answers on our own, including what other products we may benefit from that IBM offers.

Disappointed

Think analysts, not their tools.
Return on Investment
- Having just completed a re-platform for the West Marine site and changing from Adobe to IBM for analytics, there are no significant business changes to link to our choice of an analytics package. That said, I would never be inclined to attribute the ROI to the analytics package itself. IBM and Adobe both have excellent enterprise-class analytics packages. Any decisions should be attributed to the analyses or managers, not to their tools. I don't credit Excel or Access with any ROI either.

Honest Review of IBM Digital Analytics
Return on Investment
- Gives clients insight into performance across marketing channels
- Provides single source of "truth" between client and agency
Return on Investment
- Digital Analytics is essential for reporting across web performance and marketing activities.
- Although ROI is difficult to calculate for a web analytics tool, it has helped us drive business decisions that lead to increased ROI for marketing performance as well as a higher conversion rate on the website leading to higher revenue.
- In particular, the Digital Recommendations solution has proved positive and has consistently returned positive ROIs for the majority of our clients, on average adding a lift of 5-10% in Sales.
Return on Investment
- IBM Digital Analytics helps with understanding the key strengths and weakness of websites. For instance it helps with understanding if some visitors belonging to a given category are experiencing problems in their journey.
- The interesting aspect of IBM Digital Analytics is that the more you use it the more you need it and the more you want to know about the visitors. Most of our clients that are on a free solution end up on IBM Digital Analytics because they realize that the tool does not completely answer all the questions they have.
- The conversion rate of some of our client's websites really went up because we were able to identify the problems that customers had on their websites.
