Optimizely Content Marketing Platform is helpful when cross-department approvals are needed. It can help streamline efforts and provide better transparency about where approvals and content generation efforts stand. The content library could be improved for better functionality and useability of material, and it would be interesting to explore additional capabilities. For instance, could the system be used to share more materials with colleagues that don't necessarily need to use the approvals process, but only need access to the finished material?

Well suited: Excellent for posts (social media or internal) as it allows a thorough review of each department head, such as marketing and design.

Less Aproppiate: The email functionality is not optimal and requires improvement to better suit our needs. It currently displays information inaccurately and lacks automation for necessary updates.

Its a great tool to track work requests and keeps you on the top with the deadline notifications, however it is not suitable when you have multiple deliverables in one project. If I need to get one deliverable it works efficiently, but if I have different aspects to a work request it might not work efficiently.

Optimizely Content Marketing Platform has a higher sticker price than some of its competitors. While this is true, you're buying an industry leader with tremendous experience in working with clients for years. Initially, with our Conversion Rate Optimization program, we were wow'd and cajoled into trying the hot bleeding edge features that some newer companies might call AI/algorithmic models-- these are otherwise known as Multi-Armed Bandit campaigns, which isn't a new thing.

That being said, contracting and fully utilizing Optimizely Content Marketing Platform's suite of features, professional services, and more may be cost prohibitive for smaller companies. Once a CRO program reaches maturity Optimizely Content Marketing Platform can scale for larger teams where more advanced can utilize server side tests exclusively for seamless experimentation.

This is a rather difficult question. I'd say very good to reach the people who need to give access to some content. In a big company as Shell, it is easy to have access to the right people via a platform and search for, them and bothering lots of people to get to the right department.

Optimizely Content Marketing Platform provides seamless visibility across multiple departments and teams, including for separate teams (such as agencies and clients). This allows us to be on the same page at all times, and nudge each other easily with comments and questions. The assigned tasks make delegating between teams really easy as well, especially when actually face time is limited.

I think Optimizely Content Marketing Platform is best for design, marketing, and other visually oriented teams. It has a good library for images and provides stock images as well. The request form works well internally. It doesn't work well for us if you need outside requests. Monday works better for that in our use case.

Optimizely Content Marketing Platform is well suited for use cases where professionals wants to run multiple scenario based A/B test results to identify major segments/cohorts for improvement from which the business can benefit from.
It is not well suited for end to end analysis of the results in standalone manner as reports could become cluttered, saturated and diffciult to understand in case of heavy user data.

The Content Marketing Platform has streamlined the creation and publication of our teams content. We use it specifically for managing the development, creation, and approvals of our written customer success stories. We were able to build custom development stages mapped to our process/stages, and we can now easily provide executive summaries (forecast and summary) and detailed status reports.

Well suited for writers - from editing to reviewing to publishing, for content managers, and for comms teams that work on separate campaigns together. It allows everyone to be in the know and make better informed decisions on a content strategy.

It's great for us to set up approvals workflows and communicate with our global employees in a central location that is easier to follow than email chains. It also allows for quick approval processes with clear direction compared to doing so over email.

We believe it's a solid product for us and for our business need. For us to be able to take the next step, I mean it's a product I'd recommend. I definitely recommend to others and if anyone's in the retail industry, this is a product that can definitely be used and meet your business needs.

Companies with distributed workflows and/or approval processes will benefit through a centralized creation and management platform. This system solves the problem of random processes and approvals with increased transparency and speed to market. Even without exploiting all the distribution opportunities (e.g.: Social, blog, CMS), the platform will increase productivity and collaboration.

Optimizely’s CMP has significantly organized out Marketing department’s workflow processes and ability to find current assets. The campaign function allows us to group together all the relevant tasks despite them being carried out by different teams. Assets are updated rather than duplicated. Tasks are collaborated on rather than siloed. Requests are seen rather than lost.

Optimizely Content Marketing Platform is a great content tool, but love to see it with more of a project management focus. Something integrated would be super. It can be difficult to give a very specific deadline for a particular piece of the overall campaign. For instance, if a task has a deadline of x, a designer might see that and think that have until x to deliver. When in fact...they do not! We had to be very careful in training so the team looks inside a task to understand when their piece is actually due.

I think if you have a decent-sized team (15 or more people) with multiple projects needed daily/weekly, you will enjoy using this platform. It really does streamline each workflow and holds everyone accountable for their part in a friendly way. You can be interactive, take notes, leave notes, etc. There are many interactive features, which adds to its collaborative nature.

I work with an agency partner and various clients to create content . We can keep all our communication in one platform and it makes it easy for people to share feedback, eidts and comments. I mostly do relatively short prices—500 to 1000 words. Longer projects would be harder to track

Our Marketing teams get Digital Content requests daily from the field for Product Sell sheets, table tents, Livestock Store flyers, etc. Using Optimizely we have streamlined our processes and can plan and deliver on time.

It's well suited for large organizations that have many products and services, as it's a one stop dashboard to find every type of documentation that is needed. It would be less appropriate for smaller organizations that don't have as many products, but still useful nonetheless. Ultimately it helps my efficiency in finding everything I need quickly.

Optimizely Content Marketing Platform is well suited for collaborating between teams on content creation and publishing. Optimizely visually organizes content into customized sections. Optimizely allows you to customize the categorization to effectively project manage that aligns with specific internal workflows.

I think it is most appropriate in large companies, where there are many different people touching different aspects of the same project. It makes less sense in smaller companies, when only one or two people are seeing the project the entire way through.

Acknowledge that the way we're using it isn't necessarily the intended purpose. While we are using it to manage workflows for created content like ebooks, reports, or similar we're also trying to use it as a bit of a project management solution on how those assets get deployed. Trying to make that work over purchasing a separate tool. At times it works better than others. Trying to map the content calendar schedule to other schedules isn't really possible with our other activities so we are often left pulling data from here and migrating else where to provide full visibility of project status.

For general content orchestration works as well as each user.
