    Chose Convert Experiences
    Three words: value for money. In a due diligence comparison, Convert Experiences came up more than twice less expensive than the nearest competitor, while offering more product features, better performance and a quick response time with support/sales agents that actually …

    Chose Convert Experiences
    Convert Experiences sits in a niche of great products, against which it competes very well and remains held in high regard as it achieves pretty much everything that the bigger platforms put on the table but in a more cost-effective model. The reason we initially chose …

    CRO, UX and GA specialist in Marketing at From Poland With Dev (Retail, 11-50 employees)
    Chose Convert Experiences
    Convert has the best JS code editor for advanced users (and developers). It doesn't have as great integration with GA as Google Optimize, but it also doesn't have a limit to 5 tests at one time. It's also much easier to use than Optimizely.

    Chose Convert Experiences
    Although not as robust as Adobe Target, Convert fills the niche with solid functionality at a great price. Comparable to Optimizely and far above Google Optimize.

    Founder & CEO in Marketing at Corvus CRO (Internet, 1-10 employees)
    Chose Convert Experiences
    Convert was selected based on price point, feature set, and UI/UX. All three are very friendly to new testers and small to mid-market size companies. Their UI and tool workflow is the best out of all of the non-enterprise solutions that I have tried. There is some small room …

    Owner in Marketing at Umigo (Marketing and Advertising, 1-10 employees)
    Chose Convert Experiences
    The biggest point for Convert Experiences is definitely the price and the completeness of their packages. Their Magento plugin makes it great for running tests on ecommerce stores. One thing that's missing for me is deeper insights into revenue (something Optimizely does …

    Chose Convert Experiences
    Visual Website Optimizer's feature set is not as well suited to advanced experiments (it doesn't seem to allow direct editing of variation code). Optimizely is expensive and their agency plan requires a 12 month minimum contract. Support is not as great. Optimizely also does …

    Chose Convert Experiences
    While Optimizely is an amazing A/B testing tool, Convert has almost the exact same offerings but at a much lower cost. The customer and technical support are excellent as well, and Dennis's insights and strategy calls are very helpful.

    Chose Convert Experiences
    Visual Website Optimizer costs too much and misses a lot of transactions due to third-party cookies. Optimizely flat out refused to support Shopify. They withdrew their app from the marketplace in 2014.

    Chose Optimizely Web Experimentation
    Optimizely is my favorite due to its ease of use and exceptional testing capabilities. It is not the cheapest tool, but the other tools that could be compared are not cheap—you get what you pay for. Some of the smaller tools are making gains, though!
