Overall Satisfaction with ObservePoint
[I] recommended and implemented ObservePoint for a client to verify that the tags were working after site updates.
- Covers a wide range of tags.
- Can easily audit site to locate pages missing tags or have obvious tag issues.
- Can create custom simulations for more detailed tag validation.
- UI for simulations is really terrible. Very hard to set up simulations due to lack of things like xpath to target page elements as well as see what the simulation sees when there are problems.
- Finding and fixing tag validation errors in simulations again is just a nightmare. Promised updates to the UI to fix this problem have been promised for months but still no improvements.
- Due to the lack of updates to correct issues and bugs we just haven't gotten nearly the value from the product we expected.
- We did find and fix some minor errors in our tagging through use of the product.
- Otherwise, just have not gotten any positive ROI from use of this product. Compared to the amount of time and money spent trying to get it working, we've gotten very little benefit.
