Awesome product, and kudos to ObservePoint Team, for great work!!!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

ObservePoint scans my site automatically to QA our data collection. Individually auditing each page of our site or application for accurate data collection is nearly impossible and not an efficient use of resources and also sending me alerts for any irregularities, thus this product has been really very helpful. Looking forward to keeping using it.

Pros

  • It Validates the deployment and accuracy of analytics and marketing technologies and data.
  • Technology Governance feature ensures your data collection tools and processes are executing as planned.
  • Privacy Compliance feature performs automated audits to identify all the tech collecting data on our site and ensures compliance to digital standards and government regulations for customer data

Cons

  • The web audit feature can be made better, as the errors which it recognises, takes time
  • Jouneys feature can also be worked on, they need to allow us to configure items as per our requirement
  • The rules feature, only shows limited failures, I would appreciate if the developers can work on that too

Most Important Features

  • Audit feature is very crucial
  • rules is very important
  • Comparison Reports feature is very very useful and a good feature too

Return on Investment

  • Overall busniess has been really great, and i am quite happy with the team
  • there was one negative instance, when I was not able to get hold of their support team, which affected my work
  • Technology Governance has been very very great for me and my company, people if you're looking for it, go with ObservePoint

ObservePoint Review

Pros

  • Custom tagging is very important when you need specific tags tailored to your website needs.
  • The dashboards are great, user friendly and you can share them with coworkers easily.

Cons

  • Page details, although interesting, are not very useful as the data is too granular and not possible to integrate with other analytics data for insights.
  • Some of the custom tagging may be a little complicated, so sometimes we need an engineer or an ObservePoint tech to help us out.

Return on Investment

  • Catching errors before they become bigger problems.
  • Saving the QA team time on checking implementation and testing.
