Dynamic Yield for Enterprise Experimentation Personalisation

Rating: 10 out of 10

Incentivized

April 29, 2025

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Dynamic Yield for both onsite and offsite personalisation in 29 countries around the world today.

We leverage the platform for Product Recommendations, Content Personalisation and Experimentation / A/B Testing in all markets.

For Offiste, we are leveraging the Reconnect toolset to embed Product Recommendations into targeted email and web push notifications.

Pros

Predictive Targeting
Product Listing Page Personalisation
Affinity Profiles
Segment of one Personalisation

Cons

Global campaign management, today we have to implement campaigns repeatedly across different country sites
Global dashboards for campaign performance tracking, this is very fragmented at present
Elements tool seems to be particularly focused on the US, would be great to see this working in other markets as well.

Likelihood to Recommend

Particularly useful on transactional websites, perhaps less relevant on static content / marketing focused real estate.

Dynamic Yield The Personalisation Powerhouse.

Rating: 9 out of 10

Incentivized

April 27, 2025

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Dynamic Yield is primarily a no-bottleneck tool we use to personalise content on our website. Although the initial CSS set-up takes time, the payoff has been very fruitful. Unique customisable templates, quick hotfixes on webstore enhancements, and a large variety of campaign types that can be previewed and published in real-time make Dynamic Yield the ultimate game-changer for tailored experiences. Not only will guests see content relevant to them, but this can also be tweaked over time through testing methods that utilize slick components, allowing for effortless measurement. Dynamic Yield also takes A/B testing to another level; users can split allocations beyond just the 50/50 threshold. Additionally, a powerful dynamic allocation method can be applied, whereby components with higher engagement will take precedence, making them more prevalent. It solves the business problem of not having enough data-driven actions, without requiring the involvement of a complex development team. Dynamic Yield has shifted from becoming a tool we occasionally use to gather insights to a business necessity imperative for making data-driven decisions.

Pros

Dynamic allocation.
Addressing cart abandonment issues.
Affinity-based targeting.
Pop-ups and banners.

Cons

Brand templates could need complex CSS/custom code.
We'd like to see a little "i" next to specific labels, which elaborates on what is meant. For example, when I hover over "Dynamic allocation," I get something like "An advanced form of A/B testing where the best-performing variations receive higher traffic."
Jargon (for example, for audience targeting) can be overwhelming for new users; therefore, clearer, user-friendly explanations are needed.

Likelihood to Recommend

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).

A leading tool in experimentation and personalization

Rating: 9 out of 10

December 18, 2024

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Dynamic Yield serves as our e-commerce team's experimentation and personalization tool. We use the tool extensively for product recommendations, A/B testing, and personalized onsite experiences.

Pros

Gives the user full control with significant flexibility
Great ongoing support from customer success manager (thank you Shaniece!)
Very intuitive platform

Cons

More robust reporting

Likelihood to Recommend

Dynamic Yield is a great tool to house all experimentation and personalization efforts, especially for a Shopify ecommerce brand. It has templates for beginners, but also allows for full customizability for those with front end development experience. I really like that they have a focused roadmap - they are not trying to be an all-in-one tool like some competitors. They focus on personalization and experimentation.

A great testing and personalisation product

Rating: 10 out of 10

December 12, 2024

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Dynamic Yield is a great tool that enables you to really scale up A/B/n testing and personalisation in a way that a smallish company by themselves wouldn't be able to achieve. The interface is self-explanatory and has some great options for targeting and audience creation. Having previously used Google Optimize it was easy to move over.

Pros

A/B/n testing to ensure new features are adding value
Audience creation to select specific groups of users to target
Personalisation to change the site depending on the type of user

Cons

Implementation was more involved than with Google Optimize

Likelihood to Recommend

I would say this is great for beginners and experts alike, the tool is easy enough to learn for anyone starting out, but also has power features that help experts really get the most out of the tool.

Rating: 10 out of 10

July 4, 2024

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We wanted to implement a personalization strategy in our shop. During our search for a personalization tool, we came across Dynamic Yield.

Dynamic Yield now helps us to easily set up and test our ideas and strategies. Thanks to the good support, we were able to quickly achieve initial success.

Pros

Great customer support: Our Customer Success Manager [...] previously worked in a company with Dynamic Yield. That's why she already had years of (practical) experience with the tool and was able to give many helpful tips. This support couldn't have been better!
Easy implementation: The onboarding was very professional and the technical support helped with the correct implementation and obtaining correct data.
Easy to use: The tool has many good out of the box solutions that can help you start your first tests straight away. But custom solutions can also be built quickly.

Cons

I am very satisfied with the tool. I can't really say anything negative.

Likelihood to Recommend

We were not satisfied with our recommendations on our website. That's why we switched to Dynamic Yield. There you can easily develop your own recommendation strategies and monitor their performance.

Rating: 10 out of 10

January 5, 2024

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Dynamic Yield for AB testing, product recommendations on-site and in emails, and UX personalization. The tool allows us to very easily build, deploy and measure the various UX changes, user engagement and recommendation strategies. Many of the implementations can be done without any or much development efforts which enables us to test and adjust our strategies, as needed.

Pros

Audience targeting based real-time behavior and/or user attributes
Quick jump start using out-of-the-box templates and strategies
Good insights on campaign and audience performance
Strong account/consulting partnership

Cons

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.

Likelihood to Recommend

Dynamic Yield is perfect for experience personalization, AB testing, and product recommendation for ecommerce sites.
