Overall Satisfaction with Optimizely Web Experimentation

Our company is currently using Optimizely Web Experimentation as a means to replace Google Optimize, performing A/B Testing, and creating a platform for all Marketers to contribute new ideas across our Website. We look towards the specific targeting of events, audiences, and measuring our KPIs with the integration of GA4 and in the future, HubSpot.

Pros

  • Event tracking
  • Measuring and identifying audiences
  • Visual editor to create and make tests
  • Management of different projects/sites

Cons

  • Integration with GA4 (bug identified with our CSM)
  • Integration with HubSpot
  • Shared experimentation across different projects
  • So far, we haven't run too many experiments or utilized Web Experimentation as much as we should be, but of the tests we have run, it has increased conversions across our landing pages, saved time on experiment duplication (especially on duplicate pages)
The separation of the projects allows for management between sites, to whichever those goals would be. However, because we have similar site structures and measurement of KPIs, it would be nice to have the ability to share experimentation, audiences, or event tracking across those sites/projects.
We see the overall benefit of designing experimentation through advanced personalization, especially when having a streamline of targeted pages that should continue AB testing. Though we haven't implemented this feature quite yet, in addition to analyzing the experimentation, unlocks more levels of testing and collaboration with our teams.
The creation and customization of events in our AB testing is an important feature that Google Optimize does not. Because of how we prioritize our Client journey and leading to more form submissions, it's critical that we can identify pivotal moments that influence our User's decisions.
