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.
Dynamic Yield
Chose Dynamic Yield
Better Product Recommendations, Ease of Use, Affinity based Personalisation, Predictive Targeting and out of the box templates.
Chose Dynamic Yield
It's mostly the speed and efficiency that make Dynamic Yield the go-to platform. It's very customizable, and tracking can be done in real-time, which is a strong point. Built-in component testing enables all team members to view and track changes easily. Not only that, it is a …
Chose Dynamic Yield
While each of the other platforms may have certain features or aspects that are stronger than Dynamic Yield, Dynamic Yield is certainly the best platform I've used of the ones listed. The ability to do both experimentation and personalization in one platform (and to have a tool …
Chose Dynamic Yield
Dynamic Yield has many more features than Google Optimize so this allowed us to hit many more use cases which may have previously been out of reach. We switched to Dynamic Yield after Google Optimize was shut down.
Chose Dynamic Yield
We can do a lot more with Dynamic Yield with not just the testing side of things but the product recommendations, personalisation and the out of the box features.
Chose Dynamic Yield
Dynamic Yield provides far more capability and ready-to-go templates for small-medium sized businesses, as well as decent API implementation for businesses who want to have a deeper integration. The ease of implementation and faster time-to-market is why we chose Dynamic Yield.
Chose Dynamic Yield
DY is easier to understand, has much better support than any of the other products i've used, and much easier to setup / integrate
Chose Dynamic Yield
Dynamic Yield is leaps-and-bounds beyond other platforms when it comes to advanced capabilities. If all you want is to A/B tests two separate landing pages, it is probably overkill. If you want to optimize your customer's digital experience across audience-types, including …
Chose Dynamic Yield
I have used homegrown recommendation tools in the past. DY is more robust than anything I could build in house.
Chose Dynamic Yield
Optimizely Web Experimentation
Chose Dynamic Yield
No contest between Convert and Optimizely - those are very decent A/B test programs but also standard. The biggest contender was A/B Tasty and we chose DY due to the ease of client vs server side implementation within the platform and robust analytics/product recommendation …
Chose Dynamic Yield
You get a lot more for the amount you pay compared with similar offerings. The out of the box templates also make it easier to get started especially if there is limited engineering resource. Like that it supports testing / personalization / recommender at the same time.
Chose Dynamic Yield
Dynamic Yield has proven to surpass my experiences with both Optimizely and Braze in many ways - notably with contact time and support from the team, which has made a huge difference to the success of the tool for us. But also in my experience, I've found there to be a much …
Chose Dynamic Yield
Dynamic Yield was the most robust, flexible, and intuitive option, as well as the best fit for our Single Page Application environment.
Chose Dynamic Yield
I have not used other products in the same space as DY.
Chose Dynamic Yield
We've used product recommendations through our website platform and while it was a couple of years ago and I can't remember exactly who we reviewed, we did compare Dynamic Yield to two or three other competitors before deciding to move forward with them.
Chose Dynamic Yield
Because you can use both personalization and A/B testing in one platform was the biggest reason for moving forward with Dynamic Yield. Also having a dedicated customer success manager was also a reason to move forward.
Chose Dynamic Yield
Dynamic Yield is easier to use and the customer support hands down is the best we have ever encountered. The out-of-the-box campaigns are greater and easier to use on Dynamic Yield.
Chose Dynamic Yield
DY can be linked to the product feed allowing use cases that are not possible on a simple testing solution.
Also, DY is simple to use for the marketing team, there is no need for technical knowledge to set most of the experiences. To conclude, DY can be used as a CDP with a …
Chose Dynamic Yield
Dynamic yield has everything you need out of the box where VWO pricing is tiered which can be frustrating. Dynamic yield is solid on personalization and more flexible with what can be done and achieved.

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.

It's ideal for testing continuous improvements in user experience - we're achieving good results from A/B testing and multivariate testing, and tracking the impact is very slick and compelling. We currently don't have any Dynamic Yield integrations set up for our app due to the complexities involved. We are also unable to track user behavior on platforms nested outside our domain (such as CTAs on our site that link to external booking engines).

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.

  • Product recommendations are easy to set up, and powerfully personalizable through either hands on refining or automated A/B testing
  • Customer insights are easy to set up and can be applied retroactively to data
  • A/B testing anything from different graphics to copy to page layouts is easy to set up and implement site wide

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.

  • The impact (either positive or negative) of potentially overlapping campaigns, especially the UX personalization or custom code campaigns, may not be easily identifiable.
  • It would make more sense for the new deep-learning and machine learning (ML) driven strategies be made part of the standard offering, as opposed to positioning them as add-on subscription, given that many other completing services are baking in ML as part of their platform evolution.
  • The documentation on the API and custom code implementation can be fleshed out further.

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

implementation took a long time but also, DY has really proven that they are transforming and adapting their platform to be more user friendly and the right technology choice for their brand or company

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.
Read full review
Overall, the interface is not difficult to understand. Although to create campaigns or define strategies for recommendations, some study is required.
Also, some reports are hidden, you really need to know where to look in order to see them (e.g. strategies performance or email campaigns performance).
Also, there is a lack of context help that would improve a lot the usability, especially when you face a feature or a report for the first time.

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.

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.

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.

  • Dynamic Yield supports us in our CRO offering as our optimisation platform of choice - we are leveraging this tool heavily in the application of these services - allowing us an ongoing income stream.
  • Dynamic Yields adds value to our clients - we can confidently recommend DY's recommendations and AI as better than those that are offered "out of the box" within Shopify. As a Shopify Plus agency, leveraging this better technology is often a quick way in which we can show almost immediate value to new clients to improve their conversion rate and revenue per user.
