A/B testing tools, compare the two versions (control and variant) of webpage or content to determine the better performing and appealing version. These tools aim to optimize engagement and conversion goals by deploying multiple versions of digital content in real time. Traffic is split at random so that each group sees either version of A/B. By dividing the traffic into two groups, marketers can measure the impact of a change on a predefined goal, such as click-through rates, conversion rates, or any other key performance indicator. Statistical analysis combined with segmentation data is used to improve actions taken by visitors/users across the customer life cycle. A/B testing tools are used by marketers and web developers to make data-driven decisions for product and marketing strategy.

Personalization engines use knowledge about customers to create and deliver an optimum experience for them and measure the impact on customer experience. These engines apply AI, advanced analytics and business rules to create meaningful experiences across channels that facilitate customer engagement and drive revenue. Personalization engines create a relevant, individualized interaction between two parties designed to enhance the recipient’s experience. A recipient can be a prospect, customer (known or anonymous) or employee (engaging with a customer or prospect). In commercial settings, the engines apply advanced analytics to interpret customer data — whether known or anonymous, behavioral or contextual — and adjust engagement based on where the customer is in their journey and how they’re interacting. The engines adapt content, offers and interactions in real time that facilitate the customer’s journey.
