Dynamic Yield vs. Intellimize

It's ideal for testing continuous improvements in user experience - we're achieving good results from A/B testing and multivariate testing, and tracking the impact is very slick and compelling. We currently don't have any Dynamic Yield integrations set up for our app due to the complexities involved. We are also unable to track user behavior on platforms nested outside our domain (such as CTAs on our site that link to external booking engines).

Intellimize has done a great job of targeting our highest trafficked pages. For a demand generation organization it helps provide a lot value for places like the homepage or various high value funnels. Where Intellimize falls short is where we have a specific technology stack that often causes issues for us being able to run tests at scale because some experiments break or fail to run. Please do yourself a favor and evaluate this tool with your development team before purchasing. Single Page Applications do have re-rendering issues given some experiments which lead to run-time issues that need to be heavily QA'd before launch. For teams that are ecommerce or have a typical technology stack (e.g. wordpress and static pages), then Intellimize will probably work without any issues.

• Product recommendations are easy to set up, and powerfully personalizable through either hands on refining or automated A/B testing
• Customer insights are easy to set up and can be applied retroactively to data
• A/B testing anything from different graphics to copy to page layouts is easy to set up and implement site wide

• CSM and Engineering resources are available with Intellimize and allows us to spend more time thinking about new ideas to implement.
• AI/Machine Learning allows winning personalizations to continually run or switch between variants for users that may convert better based on firmographic data
• The CSM is a wonderful collaborator and acts as a liaison between Intellimize's engineering team. With their help, I am able to better refine my own testing roadmap.

• The impact (either positive or negative) of potentially overlapping campaigns, especially the UX personalization or custom code campaigns, may not be easily identifiable.
• It would make more sense for the new deep-learning and machine learning (ML) driven strategies be made part of the standard offering, as opposed to positioning them as add-on subscription, given that many other completing services are baking in ML as part of their platform evolution.
• The documentation on the API and custom code implementation can be fleshed out further.

• No WYSIWIG Editor
• Limited to only 5 tests a week
• QA of larger tests that require heavier engineering effort can often run longer than a week and can block the already limited number of tests you can run

implementation took a long time but also, DY has really proven that they are transforming and adapting their platform to be more user friendly and the right technology choice for their brand or company

Overall, the interface is not difficult to understand. Although to create campaigns or define strategies for recommendations, some study is required.

Also, some reports are hidden, you really need to know where to look in order to see them (e.g. strategies performance or email campaigns performance).

Also, there is a lack of context help that would improve a lot the usability, especially when you face a feature or a report for the first time.

We selected Dynamic Yield because of Better Support & Partnership Experience, Superior Experimentation Capabilities, All-in-One Platform for Personalization, Testing, and Targeting Its better suited then other tools with A/B testing, better hyper personalization, AI - driven capabilities, low - code, better support

Intellimize is a league above products like VWO and Google Optimize. Simply having the support from an external engineering team gives your web team the freedom and bandwidth to do more. The level of support for Google Optimize is entirely limited, especially if you're using the free version of that product, and I am skeptical of paying Google for the paid version of it since the largest value of the paid version of Optimize, is to simply run more tests. VWO has amazing heatmap and reporting, but severely lacks any Machine Learning or firmographic data. While their support is exceptional, it's not the same as having a dedicated CSM to help plan a roadmap. It's also helpful to note that VWO, Google Optimize, and Intellimize have issues with single page applications. Static websites are likely to run entirely fine without issue.

• Dynamic Yield supports us in our CRO offering as our optimisation platform of choice - we are leveraging this tool heavily in the application of these services - allowing us an ongoing income stream.
• Dynamic Yields adds value to our clients - we can confidently recommend DY's recommendations and AI as better than those that are offered "out of the box" within Shopify. As a Shopify Plus agency, leveraging this better technology is often a quick way in which we can show almost immediate value to new clients to improve their conversion rate and revenue per user.
