Google Content Experiments (discontinued) vs. Omniconvert Explore

Google Content Experiments is suited for large and small organizations, no matter your organizational goals. It is not recommended for organizations that are only interested in qualitative data, as there are other tools for receiving specific user experience feedback. It is also not recommended that you implement tests without some sort of goal in mind.

If you need some website personalization it can do the trick. If you have a website where you know where your users are coming from and you can improve their experience from some personalization it will help you convert them through your funnel.

If you are running a small site it may be overkill to a normal call to action. Couldn’t hurt to test though with their split testing.

• When you need to measure against event-based goals
• If you need to see how the test variations performed against secondary goals
• Given that the the platform requires you actually code a new page with a unique URL, this tool can be good for radical redesigns.
• Great insights into other information about your testing groups, like whether or not they're mobile, screen size, browser, or really any dimension available in GA.

• Conversion optimization.
• Website personalization.

• You can only optimise for one goal, so if you have several conversions, like phone call and email you need to do it manually.
• It seems not to work that well for pages with lower amounts of traffic - not great for new or niche sites.

Content Experiments just makes it is simple and easy to implement A|B tests. We will be evaluating other tools in search of a more robust system for multivariate and cross-page testing, such as Optimizely or Visual Website Optimizer. However, for basic testing, you can't really beat it.

Using the free tool, overall "live support" is limited. However, there are plenty of online resources to get started. If you need handheld support, it is best to upgrade the service or hire a developer through one of Google's partner agencies. There could be more support for understanding what makes a test useful or not.

• We have done fairly complex changes such as changing navigation and managed to see improvements outcomes immediately before we have to request developer.
• Our teams have become more data centric in how they approach changes.

• Personalization from referral sites has been an improvement to ROI.
