Primary factors to focus on when choosing an A/B testing platform
Explore indispensable capabilities in an A/B testing platform that can enhance your optimization programs and keep you ahead of the rest.
User behavior analytics
AB Tasty requires integration with third-party applications for effective behavioral data collection and analysis.
Optimize 360 (which has now sunsetted) does not support behavior analytics.
VWO offers a range of behavior insight tools, including heatmaps, session recordings, and form analytics, to provide qualitative research data that seamlessly enhances your testing program, eliminating the need for additional integrations.
Customer support
AB Tasty's customer success teams provide personalized support to help their clients move up the learning curve and start implementing tests and personalizing user experiences. Please note that 24x7 support is missing in AB Tasty.
Optimize 360 provides dedicated support and implementation services, apart from documentation and a self-service help center. Live chat support option is not available.
VWO connects customers with a dedicated Customer Success Manager (CSM), enabling them to leverage expertise, address queries, and optimize testing programs. Complementing this support, an extensive knowledge base documentation is available for self-help. We stand out for having the highest Customer Satisfaction (CSAT) score and offering robust support in the industry.
Privacy compliances
AB Tasty complies with major privacy regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) standards. However, it does not currently comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
As a product under Google, Optimize 360 adheres to the essential privacy guidelines of its parent company.
At VWO, we prioritize robust data security and privacy practices. Some of the acts and regulations we are compliant with are GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, and some standard certifications include ISO 27001:2013, ISO 27701:2019, and SOC 2 Type II, among others.
Pricing and plans
AB Tasty tailors quotes to individual requests, determining pricing according to the volume of monthly active users.
Optimize 360 tailors pricing plans to fit your testing needs and sends out monthly invoices accordingly.
With VWO, apart from the free trial, you can choose between free plans and custom pricing for web testing, behavior analytics, personalization, and server-side testing. Pay based on the number of users participating in your web testing campaigns using the Monthly Tracked Users (MTU) model.
Our customers back our stack too!
A vast majority of our 2500+ customers purchase a set of VWO products to achieve their goals. While our industry-leading G2 ratings and benchmark CSAT scores are evidence enough, here’s sharing some success stories in our customers’ own words.
In my role at Warner Music Group, I aim to promote a culture of data-driven creative design. We design, build and maintain hundreds of artists' websites. VWO's suite of tools help me quickly and easily find conversion optimization wins that I can standardize across our whole enterprise. I don't like to use the phrase "best practice" unless I can prove it, and my proof is in the data provided by VWO.
Brandon GentryDirector, User Experience
I’ve been working with VWO for over a year, and one of the reasons I love the software is because it’s user friendly and very intuitive. Of course, there are things we don’t always understand at first; but with the state-of-the-art support that VWO offers, we get all the answers and help we need. VWO has really succeeded in converting something that can be really complex into something fun and easy.
