Pros

  • Ease of use, good documentation, actions that are component based in nature, useful API's, good customer support and friendly staff.

  • The bi-weekly calls was a very interesting moment. Certona help to understand better our customer and how they behave.

  • The account management and customer success teams are helpful and friendly.

  • And the insight and power that you gain is incredible. The targeting is so easy and has the ability to execute very complex experiences.

Cons

  • Terrible API integration, unable to support cross-selling and up selling with an API implementation.

  • They are one of the worst vendors I’ve ever had to work with. Their product managers and technical specialists don’t know how to implement their own product.

  • The back end operating systems are quite dated and confusing.

  • Building some reports in the portal can be tedious or difficult to get to.

"Efficient platform to build your marketing campaign"

Overall: I worked with montage while being a web content management specialist at a large retail company. We used it to add promotional banners and product labels reflecting promos, and we also performed A?B testing of our banners. I liked working with the tools especially when being results of the campaign and figuring out what approach to promotion was more effective.

Pros: Monetate allows to efficiently add and track marketing elements to your site's pages thus to see how effective your campaign is. You can create and add custom content to the pages with promo details, specify audience, perform A/B testing, and see how the campaign performs all in the same place.

Cons: Creating proper queries to specify the exact pages where the promos should appear may be a bit challenging.

"Monetate - more than a testing tool!"

Overall: We have used Monetate not only as an AB testing tool, but to provide hot-fixes on our website which we can deploy outside of our monthly dev release cycle. It is an easy to use tool and offers us the opportunity to test out ideas, setup product recommendations and soon have social proofing.

Pros: Ability for the teams to try out ideas, have multiple variants of tests and to create personalised experiences based on user age / gender / previous purchases and lead source. We work with a testing partner who run all tests in monetate and provide comprehensive analytics to back up the results.

Cons: I can honestly say, there is nothing I don't like about Monetate!

Reasons for Choosing Monetate: We used Taggstar for social proofing, however the large cost for a single piece of functionality and a contractual obligation to not AB test it against other products led to us leaving and looking for another solution, it turns out we already had a better social proofing solution with our Monetate package. Thanks to our account manager, we will now be using this instead.

"Overpriced, outdated software with little to no support"

Pros: Easy to spin up quick A/B tests without writing code

Cons: Significantly overpriced compared to alternatives, little to no improvement in the already outdated product, combative customer support focused purely on extracting more money from clients
