"Empowering"

5/5

What do you like best about Optimizely Commerce Connect?

Optimizely Commerce Cloud makes it extremely easy to segment our B2C customers and deliver personalized customer experiences. We have multiple purchase funnels that we are trying to optimize. In the past, we've attempted to implement our own segmentation and personalization. But now, with Optimizely Commerce Cloud, we can accomplish this much more efficiently. I'm particularly impressed with the level of developer support. Our purchase flows are very JavaScript-heavy. With Commerce Cloud, we can easily integrate powerful segmentation tools into these JavaScript-heavy environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Commerce Connect?

The AI-powered results are not as transparent as I'd like them to be. The AI tools offer unique insights, but it can be challenging to understand exactly how these insights were derived. Ultimately, this is a minor issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Optimizely Commerce Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

With Optimizely Commerce Cloud, we are able to deliver highly personalized experiences to our B2C customers. We can segment them based on many different traits. Ultimately, this helps us increase our conversion rate and maximize revenue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Episerver, a complete offering for digital transformation"

5/5

What do you like best about Optimizely Commerce Connect?

Episerver is a complete offering, and their solution enables all aspects of digital transformation for a client. I appreciate the versatility in the product suite, which makes it appropriate for most business segments. The platform provides solutions for marketing automation, campaign management, digital commerce and content management just to mention a few. The fact that you can choose whether you want to run solutions in the cloud or on-premise makes the offering even more compelling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Commerce Connect?

Episerver is a huge platform, and it is growing at a very fast pace, as a client or a vendor it is a challenge to keep up with new functionality or acquisitions to the product portfolio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Optimizely Commerce Connect:

Make sure you work through an experienced Agency, have a look at the partner section at www.episerver.com and ask Episerver for how long they have been implementing Episerver and how many certified developers they have. Do not look at your Episerver implementation as a pure technology project, make sure that your vendor can provide strategy, UX/design and development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Optimizely Commerce Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

The platform is the perfect match for any company wanting to be successful online. Focus is mainly on those who have a strategic view on digital and want to follow up and increase sales, lead generation, brand awareness. I think companies with a global footprint is an especially good match as the platform works very well in multiple markets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
