Guido Jancsen
International Speaker & Global CRO Leader
Has Spoken
We rank better than Optimizely for several critical factors like - “A/B Testing”, “Ease of Doing Business” and “Quality of Support”.
We’ve Beaten the Blink.
One reason why Convert Experiences is a top Optimizely alternative is thanks to our patent-pending SmartInsert™ technology. Our tool is fast and blink-free. Optimize your site for more conversions without losing your SERP position. Improve your conversions without losing your SERP position.
Transparent Stats Engine. Rich Reporting.
Convert uses two-tailed Z testing. Our stats calculations are open to scrutiny so that you can trust your winners. Present these results in compelling reports that’ll convince your C-suite to keep testing.
Need an Optimizely Alternative That Fits Your Needs? Experience Our Advantages.
Start 15-Day Free TrialJS Tester for Dynamic Testing
Build tests directly in our JS editor—which gives you full acess to your site’s JS, jQuery and CSS. Plus, create tests based on JS event pushing, so you can track and account for user behavior.
Live Log
Quality Assurance (QA) is one of the most important facets of building consistent experiences. Although a simple test can be built entirely within the Visual Editor, most experiences will need QA. Our Live Log overview feeds realtime events to the account to facilitate a quick deployment of the experience, saving valuable time in the development and release of experiences to production sites.
Advanced Goals
Use 9 goal templates to help gauge the success of your variants. Set up advanced goals with 40+ filter conditions. Or import goals from Google Analytics. Set scroll goals and click goals.
Advanced DMP Profiling
All data is useful! Even if it is stored in your marketing or email automation tool. With DMP profiling testers leverage powerful JS enabled targeting that exposes massive traffic segments to variants based on conditions which evaluate "true" at a later stage.
This isn't your average "site area tool". Pull in unique identifiers like lead scores from your scattered databases to mature your testing strategy and take things to the next level.
Advanced Targeting
Sources, channels, and geo-locations that underperform, don't need to stay that way. Segment off users by historical behavior, third party input using DMP, cookies, or JS events. And, give underperformers the boost they need.
Personalization
In the end, it’s individuals who convert. So focus on the individual. Convert’s personalization features allow you to be more persuasive—matching specific pages to specific people with rich geo-targeting.
Rich Reporting & Solid Stats
From CTR, AOV, RPV, to ROI—compare any of your KPIs with high confidence, and low costs. We stop tests at the right time: once they reach the capped visitors, statistical significance, or your fixed time window. So you save money, and can test something new.
What Test Methodology does Convert use?
Post Segmentation
Slice and dice your test data with ease after concluding your experiments. Identify segments like new/returning users, browsers used, devices used, campaigns clicked, and resident countries from the audiences exposed to your variants. Take advantage of custom segments as well, so that no learning is lost.
Hypotheses Building & Prioritization
Overwhelmed with improvement possibilities on your site? All ideas are not created equal. Compass (Beta) accessible within Convert Experiences is an intuitive, no-fuss way to build strong hypotheses, prioritize them through the PIE or ICE model for maximum impact and deploy them as A/B tests or split tests after they’ve been fully matured for execution.
Change Log
Transparency, security and compliance come to the forefront with the Convert Experiences change log. This centralized stream of activity spans all projects in your account, controls and monitors access of information in the company and serves as an audit trail during incident reviews.
API Integration
The secure token based Convert API lets you create new tests and experiences, retrieve and modify settings and generate reports and overviews for the entire application. This is especially developed for CRO agencies, organization with a high testing velocity, and developers interested in integrating into the Convert Experiences Suite.
Single Sign-On
Complete control over who accesses your Convert Experiences account. Only allow members of your organization to log in with Single Sign-On that integrates with your existing authentication layers. Ditch messy passwords. Using your A/B testing tool got easier, yet more secure.
Privacy Notifications
As a Convert Experiences user, making your site and your business better should be your only concern. That’s why we have a privacy roadmap and provisions, like no other.
Want to step outside the box with your testing? Want to open up our tool and see what it can do? We’ve built timely, easy to read and useful notifications right into the app. Get signaled about the privacy impact of turning on key features. Make good decisions. Keep your testing effective and compliant.
Security & Authentication
Something you know + something you have = unparalleled data security. That’s the premise for the Convert Experiences two-factor authentication as default on every plan. With this feature you add much needed layers of protection to your testing system. For further ease of use we also offer Single Sign-On (SSO) for specific plan levels to integrate with your existing authentication layers.
