"Make changes to the structure of your website and conduct experiments to interact with customers."
What do you like best about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

I like it because it is very easy to use with a fairly simple interface to handle, the options for analysis and reports are very complete, the visual editor is definitely a tool that I love to use, the customization options are very complete because I can create designs of messages or offers to customers of our company, the area of segmentation by behavior is very well-developed and can have a better support-customer interaction, and its statistical engine is really robust and enjoyable. I can run several experiments at the same time using the group area. Furthermore, I also consider that it is a very updated tool, being able to integrate it with dynamic websites. I can also make our developers, including me, participate in the action with codes that we write and customize; it is certainly an exquisite tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

I would like a better integration with Adobe Analytics, one or another error with user IDs, and several problems if your web browser is not up-to-date. I had some conflicts when I started it on a version of the Opera browser; it also requires a high data rate. Some time ago, I also had problems importing data to an Amazon S3 repository. This was quite annoying at the time, but I managed to solve it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

Since rates and costs have not been adequately regulated , the subscription process needs to be improved.

"A solid experimentation tool"
What do you like best about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

Clean UI made it easy to navigate and explore the app. I appreciate the detailed documentation available for users so if I have any queries, I can always consult guides, walkthroughs, or detailed feature pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

We found the Metrics Builder is not as flexible as other tools. It is tightly coupled with the experimentation flow and is opinionated and does not allow free-form SQL. This could limit the types of metrics and analyses that can be performed. I've also heard from others on the team that integrating optimizely into their code caused pages to load slower and impacted SEO scores.

Our last exploration of the tool also shows the primary metric does not account for other metrics used and doesn't correct for multiple testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

The first time integration has taken a long time compared to other optimizely tools. In the recent times, we've encountered many issues while setting up the messaging campaigns, thus making it less frequency of usage. Unable to import from S3 bucket. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Suite of excellent features for web optimization"
What do you like best about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

1. Best A/B Experimentation tool in the market. Helped us evaluate the hero banner clicks.

2. Data accuracy of Optimizely helps us to rely on this platform highly.

3. Easy to edit the variations that are in the scope using a visual editor Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

1. Again, it claims to be a low/no-code tool. Indeed it's not as even for a small change I need developer support.

2. Walkthrough of the platform & documentation is not easy to understand. It can be improved.

3. WYSIWYG has very little to take away, while the time it took for us to integrate is enormous. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ODP is a really powerful tool that has some usability issues"
What do you like best about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

* It's really quick and easy to track custom profile and event attributes and data fields.

* Funnels are a powerful tool to visualize user journeys (but can be slow to render).

* Event inspector is a really helpful troubleshooting tool. It would be nice to add a filter field in the UI. If there's lot of data streaming through, it's hard to find the relevant events against the noise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Optimizely Web Experimentation?

* Reports: Not having data fields being context-aware of the event actions they are associated with. I've been trying to create reports showing related combined user activities by segment. But it isn't easy to join different event actions in one report. For example, I was trying to create a report of sum form submits by video completions percentage, but that kind of join isn't possible because you can't show one row containing two different event types in a report.

* Filters: Creating multiple wildcard exclusions is not easy because they can't be added to one filter rule list since they cancel each other out. Also, having to exclude internal employees in all filters is labor intensive. It would be nice to have global account-level filter settings to exclude tracking from a list of domains or companies.

* Using custom objects to track meta data instead of creating data fields in events is difficult. It's not clear how to make a foreign key relationship between events and objects. It's not clear how to join objects and events together in Reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
