Adobe Test and Target is an A/B, multi-variate testing platform which Adobe acquired as part of the Omniture platform in 2009. It is now part of the Adobe Marketing Cloud. It offers tight integration with Adobe analytics and content management products.
We adore the fact that we can run numerous automated campaigns concurrently and that we can make changes to them without stopping and starting a new campaign. Adobe Campaign makes it possible for the process to go on.
Sender also offers multi-channel marketing capabilities, allowing users to engage with their audience through different channels. However, the range and depth of multi-channel capabilities in Adobe Campaign are generally more extensive. So after using both the platforms I …
In the end we didn’t go with Adobe Campaign. Although it offers great a great tool set that is very flexible. You do need someone on staff that know Adobe products to get the full utilisation out of it. Ultimately what it came down to for us was that because we had a small team, …
Adobe Campaign Standard has a lot of segmentation options out of the box and a lot better analytics. Pardot is a lot more listbased, where with Adobe Campaign, you can do complete customized segmentation, such as all permissions in base A who are currently customers of this …

Compared to other websites, Adobe Campaign stacks up with its various uses. You can create with its other platforms and follow through. Other platforms, you have to use adobe to create then go somewhere else to schedule and post. Adobe Campaign allows you to use all within one …
Adobe Campaign is good in terms of features, offerings, it's customization options, and extensive possibilities to make a powerful email campaign or offer landing page. It's very reliable and stable too. But in terms of its dashboard UI, it is not as simple or quick to learn as …
All these applications are very similar, adobe has a differential for the company's expertise, for the way cloud services and their specialists are treated. I believe that it also has a differential in the metrics and management of flows where it is possible to have a broader …
The platform is much more complex and much more suited for complicated applications. While Mailchimp is an easier all rounded solution for starters it doesn’t allow the system integrator to do customization of the workflows and more complicated tasks. I would say that in my …
Adobe Campaign is different from these products in that is much more all-encompassing and is able to manage more aspects of a campaign than these more singular-tracked platforms.
As we tried to centralise the marketing automation platform within the enterprise, Adobe Campaign can plug into several instances of Salesforce.com for lead management queues. All other marketing automation platforms can only plug into one instance of Salesforce.com.
For B2C campaign, [I] still prefer to go with Marketo. However, for all other transactional/Nontransactional, promotional, Welcome email campaigns, while it is required to handle [the] global market with [a] number of brands, [I would] [prefer to] go with Adobe Campaign …
Adobe Campaign has a lot more features as compared to Mailchimp. While Mailchimp allows you to send a lot of communication to a lot of recipients, Adobe Campaign lets you set variables in the workflow, and send email at different times with a lot more customization. Adobe …
Adobe is far ahead of what I used previously. Adobe has all the details of the customer which is required to increase the sales of the company and the customer also gets relevant information. Mailchimp is just an email tool where we can send mails to multiple users.
I still use Optimizely as it helps with project managing. We have been using that for quite sometime and we have recently started using Adobe Target Platform and are testing both of them to see which one would work the best for us. In terms of reporting Adobe Target has been …
For us, the decision was very straightforward. We chose to invest in the Adobe stack and utilize tools that are developed to integrate together and complement each other. Ex: Adobe Target 'A4T' integration within Adobe Analytics. Optimizely appears to be a great tool, but …
Google Optimize - Way better than Adobe, even the free version. It automatically work with Google Analytics, and tracks revenue out of the box. Fantastic. Use this.
Optimizely - As a paid service, this is another good option. Tracks revenue out of the box, good heatmapping, most …
Previously, we had the opportunity to work with some similar services and to be honest we had a disastrous experience because they were not what we were looking for, but since Adobe Target was implemented it has proven to be a highly professional service for our company.
In my personal opinion, Optimizely is a clear choice here while Google Optimize is for the low-budget minded decision-makers and Evergage for the COE more geared toward personalization; however, in our case we were already locked into using Target prior to my arrival. I don't …
I have used Optimizely for A/B testing. Optimizely makes it easier to set up almost any type of testing experiment. Optimizely is also strongly recommended for a limited number of users and when you want to optimize the cost. Optimizely was selected over Adobe Target since the …
We seriously considered another software but because we use so many other Adobe products this made the most sense for us. If you are not dependent on other Adobe software and are a smaller company, in my opinion, Target may not be the best fit.
We have looked at Optimizely but at this point are sticking with Test & Target. We like the integration it has with our Analytics tools such as Ad Hoc and SiteCatalyst. Also, we feel that Adobe has some interesting products that we would like to dig into in the future such as …
I have used Google Analytics on my personal website but I can't compare it with Test and Target, because Google Analytics is free which will do less than what Adobe Test and Target does.
While my organization has been using Adobe Test & Target, I have had the chance to evaluate Optimizely, another tool that allows for multivariate testing with a smooth interface. The reason I like to stick with Adobe Test & Target is its ability to interface and interact with …

Results and Analysis
Comparison of Results and Analysis features of Product A and Product B
Multi-Channel Campaign Management: I have found Adobe Campaign to be excellent for managing campaigns across multiple channels, including email, mobile, social media, and web. Its centralized platform allows me to plan, execute, and track campaigns effectively, making it ideal for organizations with diverse marketing channels. For example, when I was running a campaign to promote a new product launch across email, SMS, and social media channels, Adobe Campaign provided me with the tools to orchestrate and track the campaign seamlessly. I could ensure consistent messaging and a cohesive customer experience across different channels.
We recommend this application because it allows us to segment and track the traffic of our domain under an analysis of their behavior, ranging from counting the number of clicks they make on a single element to the most complete action within our page in real time.
What we like most about this application is that it provides us with the creation of ads to generate presence and impact on different channels at minimum cost.
It has a section where [it] [helps] us determine our preferences in terms of marketing by private messaging and offer a report of actions.
It also provides analysis with percentages to determine how many customers actually received our e-mail advertising.
There should be some more clarity around what makes a test significant. While this can be decided by the client themselves, some direction from the tool would be helpful.
Also, if there was an easier way to organize campaigns and search for them it would be helpful. Right now there is just a long list of campaigns and you have to rely on search to find a specific campaign. What if you don't know the name of the test?
Despite the shortcomings of user interface and basic troubleshooting difficulty, Neolane is much more robust and delivers better capabilities to our sales and marketing staffs than any other product we have used here or any product our staff members have used at other locations.
Once you get started with your testing program, you realize that it is necessary to continue. You must keep optimizing in order to remain a vital competitor in today's marketing world. Even if you're not using Test & Target or any other user experience testing software, you ought to be performing comparison tests on your own, simply by routing your audience to different experiences and quantifying the aggregate of the results.
Thanks to this tool we are taking more internal control of the creation and deployment of campaigns with less dependency on an ESP. We can pre-program marketing publications, being able to concentrate on the target audience. It helps me manage email campaigns with real-time tracking.
The recent UI update is a complete mess. It is difficult to navigate and find features that previously existed. The reactiveness of the page depending on window size is also ridiculous and it is absurd that depending on how large your window is, entire columns of functions will disappear with no indication that they are missing. The usability of the tool has fallen off a cliff.
Although there is a lot of material available on the internet to answer questions, I still feel a lack of commitment and delay in the responses of the support, but as a whole, it leaves nothing to be desired. I believe that, in the great majority, companies sin in the desired support, but we cannot generalize. But this one, in particular, has a wide range of specialists and well-qualified management, but I believe that it is not so bad.
On several occasions, we have had the need to ask for help from the Adobe Target support team, and I must say that they have provided us with an excellent experience, as they take care of solving the problems quickly and with high precision
The instructor that came to train us was awesome and this training was very useful. I would recommend it for anyone who is going to be using this software. I only mark it lower because it is an added expense to an already expensive product, and a lot of the training covered the "Target" portion of the software (which again, we didn't use)
The training was very easy to understand, however it would have been more useful to my development team than me. It was also primarily over-the-phone, which is never as easy to follow as in-person. We ended up scheduling and paying for an in-person training session to supplement the online/phone training because it wasn't helpful enough.
Implement using a global mBox on the page so you can change any and everything over the traditional method. Traditional method is good if you do not have technical web dev resources, do not know Javascript/jQuery, or you have money to blow on mBox calls. Global deployment reduces mBox calls and allows you to touch many parts of the page easily. A lot more customizable
Sender also offers multi-channel marketing capabilities, allowing users to engage with their audience through different channels. However, the range and depth of multi-channel capabilities in Adobe Campaign are generally more extensive. So after using both the platforms I selected Adobe Campaign for my email marketing purpose.
For us, the decision was very straightforward. We chose to invest in the Adobe stack and utilize tools that are developed to integrate together and complement each other. Ex: Adobe Target 'A4T' integration within Adobe Analytics. Optimizely appears to be a great tool, but for us aligning with the Adobe suite, ensuring that future product enhancements and tools would work well together was a very important key factor in our decision
Adobe Campaign has boosted our ROI, with a 700% increase in the last month of using the service. These results are very favorable, and we will continue to use the service.
Adobe Campaign makes it easy to calculate the proposed ROI on a monthly basis, as it constantly lets us evaluate and compare the growth of our earnings in relation to previous ones.
This is something we've been working to improve on, as far as how we're calculating and tracking this, but Target has had a substantial ROI on our business.
I will say specific to our efforts, we could have probably done similar work if not the same work using a different testing tool (Optimizely for example), but Target has been good for us.
