It is available as either a managed or self-service model. Data is collected using Qubit's own Universal Variable data model, or by integrating the user's existing model via our API. It combines quantitative data with qualitative visitor feedback to give Qubit users the ability to detect areas for optimization. Using…N/A

Considered Both Products
AB Tasty
Chose AB Tasty
AB Tasty is the king when it comes to cost/benefit. It is not the cheapest but not the most expensive. It is a very advanced tool and we like the fact of not having to pay extra fees for more advanced features that we may only use for one test. Also, the chat support …
Chose AB Tasty
We selected AB Tasty as the support is way better than the WYSIWYG editor. We will still work with AB Tasty as in the addition to the solution because a lot of support is provided (roadmap, workshops, evangelization, etc).
Chose AB Tasty
AB Tasty is more of a marketer's tool. It's much better when it comes to QA, handly and reliable. There is a great customer support chat available in 5 minutes.
Chose AB Tasty
We decided on AB Tasty as there were numerous features at this time that other providers did not offer and we felt like being on the right track for the upcoming years and challenges. Also, the price was for sure one of the criteria. AB Tasty offered an attractive package …
Chose AB Tasty
Privy showed our websites down and was very limited. It's great to be able to use ab tests and have more options without loss of speed
Chose AB Tasty
The product roadmap is interesting. Support is quite professional. Features are very useful.
Chose AB Tasty
AB Tasty is great, probably the best optimizing tool you can use. Easy, loads of features, great support from CSM. Great variation editor whereas Monetate and VWO don't have a lot of features/widgets. Optimizely is good but again not a lot of capability without a dev. Whereas …
Chose AB Tasty
We did test couple of platforms before decision, but A/B Tasty support alreasy on Proof of Concept phase was exceptional and price was reasonable, so the decision was fairly easy.
Chose AB Tasty
AB Tasty is much more affordable and provides very similar results. We are happy we made the switch and have seen the same success we had with other platforms on AB Tasty.
Chose AB Tasty
VWO & Optimizely, in my opinion, are for large corporations. They're expensive and very limiting.
Chose AB Tasty
We have not used the AB Tasty heat maps or user recording feature so I'm not too sure how they stack up. As for SiteSpect it is a more intricate testing platform that uses the cloud to run tests, however, it's much more expensive and I think AB Tasty gives more bang for your …
Chose AB Tasty
AB Tasty has very aggressive pricing and a simple-to-use toolset. We feel that AB Tasty gives us what we need and the other vendors don't provide additional value to justify the cost.
Chose AB Tasty
We selected AB Tasty mostly because we got a sense that their dev and customer service teams were going to go above and beyond to help us out. We were right! The cost was also a factor as they came in a small bit lower, but cost wasn't the only factor.
Chose AB Tasty
AB Tasty is far more affordable than most of them, but with the same functionality and better reporting (reporting looks similar to Optimizely). Monetate requires an agency or a dedicated CRO team to manage and run tests, and is best for large companies with a lot of traffic …
Chose AB Tasty
Optimize does not support SPAs, it was a deal breaker for us. AB Tasty supports it very well.
Chose AB Tasty
AB Tasty isn't as sophisticated or advanced as Monetate. The analytics section in Monetate is fabulous. But AB Tasty is great for smaller companies with a smaller budget. And the AB Tasty support has been better.
Chose AB Tasty
We selected AB Tasty over other leading A/B Testing platforms due to its huge list of features, dedicated account support and competitive licensing model.
Chose AB Tasty
AB Tasty has a good price/quality ratio. They are the European leader and have a good reputation. We were satisfied with them so we kept them.
Chose AB Tasty
AB Tasty shares data with many analytics solutions as Google Analytics or At Internet solutions
Chose AB Tasty
Crazy Egg was mainly only used for heat mapping, which it does really well. I haven't used Google Optimize too much yet but it has most of the same functionality as A/B Tasty. Google Analytics is more used for reporting and a deeper look into data. AB Tasty by far has the best …
Chose AB Tasty
It's a different tool - and could probably borrow some of the UI and ease of use from the other tools, but excels in providing prebuilt functionality and more detailed targeting. It also needs a lot more learning - when the other tools are pretty much pick up and go.
Chose AB Tasty
It's just the perfect mix between all tools I have used in the past.
Coveo Qubit
Chose Coveo Qubit
In my previous company one of the brands was using Optimizely, while the brand I was working for was using Qubit. Qubit proved to be so much more than a multi-variant platform. It was much easier to use - we didn't have to rely on the tech team to implement tests. This way we …
Chose Coveo Qubit
Key points that keep us close to Qubit are its knowledgeable resources, presentation and UI, ease of getting trained, ease of use, low time to market, analytics and reports.
Chose Coveo Qubit
We're using Qubit as a fully managed testing platform, and their account management and level of service we've received from any other contact (technical, support, sales etc) was above any of their competitors. Integration and on-boarding was well done and we feel confident …
Chose Coveo Qubit
Having previously used Maxymiser around 3 years ago, I found their setup to be geared more away from faster moving retail. While tests would be thoroughly researched and built to a high standard, the length of time to turn around a single test was too long. Qubit has allowed us …
Chose Coveo Qubit
As alternatives to Qubit, we considered:
* Optimizely: more limited personalisation options, more expensive to be used across different sites.
* Maxymiser: more expensive.
Chose Coveo Qubit
Qubit definitely beats Optimizely in terms of segmentation and personzalization. Regarding AB testing, both tools are quite similar.
Chose Coveo Qubit
We've chosen Qubit because of the data driven approach, ease of use and the offered support. We like the ability to build some tests externally with the Qubit help.
Chose Coveo Qubit
At the time of taking the product, we found no comparable alternatives. Since then, the product has only grown from strength to strength, so it still does not have any comparable competitors that offer both the technical product and business knowledge that Qubit can. Google …
Chose Coveo Qubit
We previously used Monetate but that was before my time so it's tough to specifically compare. However, I think the fact that we're no longer with Monetate proves that Qubit has been a better partner overall.
Chose Coveo Qubit
Simple usability is a controlled group testing only. Qubit on the other hand allows you to run a test on a live site with traffic ranging from 5% to 95%
Chose Coveo Qubit
Qubit has a nicer UI than Google Tag Manager and offers the A/B testing that GTM doesn't - but for script management, there's not a lot to choose between them.
Chose Coveo Qubit
Qubit has stronger account management and business understanding
Chose Coveo Qubit
By far the most streamline of the programs.
Chose Coveo Qubit
Ability to deliver A/B tests via the UI which means that JavaScript development is not required.
Chose Coveo Qubit
Qubit is probably the most powerful tool that we reviewed. The challenge is that with the power comes a large responsibility to make sure you are doing it right and not having issues. With digital tools, power and complexity seem to go together so you have to make sure that you …
Chose Coveo Qubit
I was not directly involved in the decision-making process but understand that overall functionality, data integration, and UX testing weighed against the cost of the solution were the deciding factors.
Chose Coveo Qubit
Qubit was the first CRO tool we have used, and have stuck with it, even though we've tested other platforms on our other websites. I think it's a testament to Qubit and their staff that they are still implemented on our largest website.
Chose Coveo Qubit
I have not personally used anything similar to Qubit and I was not involved in the decision to use Qubit.
Chose Coveo Qubit
Primarily the strength of Qubit's data layer and therefore the ability to personalise and create seamless user journeys for our different customer segments.
Chose Coveo Qubit
The decision to use Qubit was made based on the capacity to run a 3 month test before committing for a longer term and down to a recommendation from a sister company.
Chose Coveo Qubit
We were not aware of some of the other offerings from Qubit so I think this is an area that could be improved upon. For us, Qubit is seen as an A/B testing tool more than anything else so I would say that the promotion of additional tools offered by Qubit is certainty something …
Chose Coveo Qubit
Our company decided to choose Qubit due to its perceived similarly to optimizely and promise infinite integrations through open tag. Sadly it didn't live up to its promise. The integrations were not integrations as most people would understand it. It was all very manual and you …
Chose Coveo Qubit
We opted for Qubit due to their personalisation features compared to the other market offering, as we felt their Visitor Cloud was a USP in the industry. The Visitor Cloud allows further personalisations, such as social proofs, to complement internal data we have gathered and …

Likelihood to Recommend
A/B Tasty tool allows us do easy testing without burdening our limited developer resources all the time. Reports are simple enough to interpret. Support has been excellent and proactive, also the onboarding was successful. It is also an advantage that we have the possibility to drive all our traffic to the test versions rather than being limited to specific user amount per month. We can recommend A/B Tasty for testing purposes, as the platform keeps it’s promises, doesn’t require too much technical knowledge and the support is excellent.

Coveo Qubit is a very helpful platform mainly for organizations that need to provide a solid business model before carrying out any implementation or new functionality. In addition, it is a very good tool to generate changes and show different content to different types of clients, with their personalization and segmentation criteria.It is ideal for simultaneous testing and customization, only one of these activities individually is not recommended.

Pros
  • Easy setup - Simple script insertion into site header.
  • Intuitive interface - It took very little training for our team to understand how to start running A/B tests. The reporting is much more comprehensive, yet easily digestible than other platforms we have used or considered. Confidence scores, flexible KPI inclusions/tracking allow us to understand the results or non-result quickly and with clarity to make decisions on next steps.
  • Customer support - Our CSM and tech support are always helpful and proactive when a question or issue arise. Our CSM keeps us on track when an idea might have dropped off the map due to other priorities, and brings great ideas to the table. We enjoy our monthly touchbases with her when we get to see new functionalities, how other clients successfully used them, and brainstorm ways we can use them for our experience.

  • The testing platform itself is continually evolving. This means that we are always able to try new ideas as well as quickly and efficiently put others into practice.
  • The beta programme and the additional functionality products are both exciting to see as well as ensuring we can cherry pick the functionality we need. This means that we don't end up paying for functionality we don't need

Cons
  • Sometimes when you're preparing a test the editor "crashes" and you need to re open it. It's just a matter of having to go back to the main dashboard a few times during your preparation.
  • Maybe to have the option to have pre-build templates of pages, buttons and assets that we can use to test experiments.
Read full review
  • Some of the reporting within Qubit has been overly simplified in the past, a point they are continually addressing.
  • At times the syntax of experience (test) creation can be specific to Qubit and so there is a slight learning curve for developers.
  • Unless developers have much time to allocate to creating tests in Qubit, marketers may potentially find simple tests limited. I would recommend having someone in-house as we do.

AB Tasty's tool as well as the support team completely met my goals on A/B Testing. Editing a test is really easy and AB Tasty made the marketing team free to launch nearly any test. Reporting is also easy to set up and give us the information needed to keep improving transformation on landing pages and forms

Qubit helps out immensely and lays out in plain English the profitability of each of our A-B tests. Say Qubit has provided us overall with a 5% profit increase this year (that is a completely arbitrary figure for illustration only), then if we didn't renew it could be seen as us taking a 5% loss as Qubit wouldn't be there. The results of our tests are showing no slowing down and as Qubit and Toast grow to understand each other better we can only see our performance getting better as the years go on.

Usability
The tool’s usability is excellent, with a smooth and intuitive interface. It is continuously updated with new features and improvements aimed at enhancing the user experience. Setting up experiments and personalizations is straightforward, thanks to a well-structured process that even less experienced users can easily follow. There are sometimes small issues with the QA section which slows the QA process but it is so much better now compared to 2024.

Overall navigation on Qubit is very user friendly and requires a minimal training to be up and running. Be it reviewing existing experiences or setting up new experiences, the process is pretty simple for business user. Add some basic development skills to your kitty, you can do magic with Qubit and make your website do wonders!

Reliability and Availability

I would say that the Qubit account managers are always available for any request. We have a lot of different promotions that could always do with last minute optimizing or changes and Qubit can be relied on to get this changes up and running in an impressive amount of time, so that we don't need to patch live or wait for the next IT sprint. Invaluable to our business.

Performance
No answers on this topic
Technology is good for A/B testing and personalisation - allowing any team with a dedicated developer to create test relatively easily and to report/analyse them in a fair amount of details. Some advanced features, especially on the set up of test cells, are dearly missing. Unfortunately, new features are often not free of bugs... Also, support is sub-par, which means new features are realised without proper documentation, example or training (but of our Qubit counterparts and internally).

Support Rating
Support is good, but it would be better if it was quicker or if AB Tasty provided a quicker SLA. At times, you require stuff urgently but AB Tasty support isn't as quick as I personally like it to be.

Qubit are supportive and flexible in providing support. They are happy working out of usual hours, even on weekends and if I have any doubts about the set up of an experience they’re quick to respond and willing to check my work. On particularly big revenue days they monitor our account and they’re quick to identify and problem solve any issues.

In-Person Training

The training was great, but would be great to have a script or PDF with some explanations of the qubit JS layer. Without the script you can just try to learn on your own, so the training is not as powerfull as it could be. On the other hand - would be great to have training related to reading statistics or personalisation.

Online Training
There is a vast amount of training available on their online platform, including their university area of which you can get certified for (and then share this with your connections on platforms such as Linkedin). There is also specific hand created training which can be provided by your customer success manager if that is requested by yourself.

Implementation Rating
No answers on this topic
Implementation couldn't be easier. All we needed to do was insert the tag. (easy) and set up the data layer. (dev required) This was pretty smooth in comparison to some of the other tools we use on our site, and was done in less than a day. Note : Data needs to be collected for a set period of time before you can accurately rely on the data that you are receiving. This is normal though with everyone else that we have used

We're using Qubit as a fully managed testing platform, and their account management and level of service we've received from any other contact (technical, support, sales etc) was above any of their competitors. Integration and on-boarding was well done and we feel confident that the campaigns are developed and tested thoroughly.

Scalability
No answers on this topic
Our requirements change throughout the year like most E Commerce retailers. At Christmas and Peak we're dealing with around ten times the usual traffic on the site. Qubit had no problems with this at all, tests continued to fire, and stats were still reported accurately. I don't think that it is the most server intensive .js anyway, but we have seen no issues at all.

Return on Investment
  • This past year we improved our new visitor conversion rates by 73% with very little increases in our ad spend. We've been able to test quickly and infer how those experiments impacted lead generation. Experimentation is all about continually learning and testing.

  • Faster recognition of customer needs - finding out exactly what customers are doing when they come on site.
  • Assessment of online assets for effectiveness and improvements - facilitated the analysis of 500 online feedback questionnaires for a campaign.
  • Mapping out lead conversion and helping identify opportunities to improve it.
