iZooto vs. WebEngage

iZooto is great if you have a case where you are selling something to consumers on your site. Or are looking to re-target them after they came to you. It may not be suited for targeting existing customers of a SaaS company who have already been acquired, when you've got the user locked in. However it can be useful to retarget the top level funnel of a SaaS company and increase leads.

When the business is expected to scale and expand, tools such as this proves very handy where it helps to target the correct segments or correct audiences with the right offerings, thereby increasing the chances of transaction or desired action from the user while saving pennies which could have been burnt if a blanket approach would have been used. Automation saves a lot of time and effort for the marketers and businesses boosted due to its operation.

• Their WordPress plugin works but is a bit glitchy when you try to override a post's default settings in the notification
• More opportunities to brand the opt in prompt would be great -- with, say, our logo, though I am not sure it's supported by browsers
• There is no clear way to UNSUBSCRIBE from prompts, unlike with OneSignal.

Incentivized

• Relays
• Onsite should have more options of templates.
• Backend support for better reachability of the channels.
• Cohort studies should be more customizable.

They were on top of things right away when I reported an issue with their WordPress plugin, or when I needed to switch from Shopify to WordPress. Very hands-on and responsive. They have built-in live chat support in their app, though it would be nice if they incorporated it into their WordPress plugin too, so I didn't have to leave WordPress to report issues.

OneSignal is free up to a very high limit, whereas iZooto is paid. But OneSignal is only suitable for posting notifications about news articles, whereas iZooto has cart abandonment. That alone makes it a no brainer. Also, the custom prompts to subscriptions add a nice touch and a way to start a non-generic relationship from the very first touch.

WebEngage's dashboard is relatively more intuitive and easy to understand. Further in terms of cost as well it is value to money as it delivers excellent ROI. The after-sales support is also better in terms of responsiveness and helps in case of issues with the execution of campaigns. The account managers also ideate and help in the optimization and creation of new user journeys.

• I bought iZooto as a lifetime deal when it was on early beta, so the ROI is high. I am about to transition a major news property I manage on to iZooto from OneSignal as it allows for easy segmentation and cart recovery, which OneSignal does not offer, at least anywhere near as easily.
• We spend up to $20 on user acquisition, and since implementing iZooto, that number has gone down to closer to $15. Still, I cannot say if the whole gain is from iZooto, as attribution is messy, but I'm sure it has contributed to our efficiency.
• Push notifications are the 4th highest source of referrals for us, so it's bringing users back.
