Kameleoon vs. OpenText Optimost

• We can easily create A/B tests and personalizations to target specific audiences and improve the customer journey
• The widget editor is intuitive and very easy to use, a lot of features are available without any code
• The result analysis dashboard is easy to read and understand : we have very detailed data to analyze the performance of our experiments, even on pages with low traffic thanks to the CUPED algorithm.
• We strongly recommend Kameleoon !

The ease of implementation combined with the managed services result in a tool that virtually anyone can use - implementation is less than 10 lines of code added to the relevant pages of the website (we simply added it to our master page template to have it available on any page) and from there the customer can be as involved or not involved as they wish. At BSI we are very hands on with the testing programme - usually developing and designing the tests ourselves and having HP build them, but if we wanted to HP to develop, design and build and limit our role to QA and review that is an option.

• The segment builder is incredibly intuitive and easy to use. Works wonderfully with Mixpanel. Our team managed to set up our segments and experiments within a couple of hours.
• Great customer service and willingness to help with any of our questions.
• Very secure testing environment for our A/B testing experiments. We had a staging environment easily set up for review and testing before live deployment. We needed a HIPAA compliant solution, and Kameleoon delivers.

• Because it is a managed service the need for intervention by our internal IT group was removed. This allowed us to control the pace of the testing programme without being influenced by IT resource allocation
• The client and technical account managers are very good at suggesting tests or potential improvements
• HP regularly holds custom forums which are always informative and provide an opportunity to learn from and network with peers and industry leaders

• Interface of the graphics editor is quite conceptual. It is fine after a few days but it takes a little while to recognize some icons.
• Their online tutorial could also be easily improved.
• If you want to do major graphical changes on your website, you will have to inject JS and CSS code which requires some technical background but I don’t know if that point can be improved.

• The dashboard interface is difficult to navigate, but I understand that they are currently developing/testing a new much more user friendly interface
• The cost can be a barrier for some organisations, but for us it is worth it. Also they are in the process of releasing a less expensive self authoring testing tool.

already renewed :)

We have not only renewed our subscription three years running, but we have added the self authoring tool and are looking to expand the subscription so that we can take advantage of the managed services on a global level.

Kameleoon offers one of the best UI's I've seen when I've compared it to 4 of the other big competitors in the landscape. They have some improvement areas when it comes to the UX - Which is easily solvable if/when prioritized. There's a little to much "clicking" and "new tabs" in my opinion

Our Kameleoon team is also very dedicated to us. We have weekly meetings to review our project roadmap and the results of our ongoing campaigns. Kameleoon’s team is very supportive and ambitious for every project. The responsiveness of the teams is also very helpful and reassuring when there are up and downs (as happens in every relationship).

The agency that helped create our new Headless website recommended Kameleoon and Growth book on top of the stalwart Optimizely. Our final round of POC was between Optimizely and Kameleoon, and the thing that pushed Kameleoon ahead was the size of their snippet and how easy it was to set up the Segment integration out of the box to do what we needed it to do. Although Kameleoon is relatively "new" to the North American market, they have continued to perform above and beyond our expectations.

Incentivized

We evaluated Optimost again Adobe's similar offering (Target). The big difference between the two and the reason why BSI choose Autonomy was the managed service aspect. The idea that once the code was deployed on the site IT no longer had to be involved gave my team full ownership of the testing programme. With the Adobe product, the involvement of the internal IT group would have been required to launch each test - and this would have decreased the number of tests we could run each month. Back in the day I also used offermatica/omniture and this too required IT involvement.

• The platform allows us to test and learn different functionalities.
• We run multiple feature experiments at different levels of the customer journey (search, login, and checkout) to improve efficiency and our conversion rate.
• We are also able to boost our fidelity program to the right audience thanks to AI.
• And obviously, optimize the user experience continuously.
