Why growing teams choose PageSense over Optimizely
Built for modern, dynamic websites
PageSense is built to handle SPAs, JavaScript-rendered elements, and dynamic URLs, areas where many teams struggle with setup and performance issues in Optimizely. With PageSense, you can target users based on on-site behavior, trigger conditions, and create custom segments, and make instant edits without relying on developers.
Built for real-world testing
Optimizely was made for large enterprise setups—but today’s teams need speed, flexibility, and control. Zoho PageSense delivers where Optimizely often falls short:
Dynamic environments
Test SPAs, pricing pages, and JS-rendered content with ease.
Cross-domain flexibility
Run experiments across subdomains or client sites.
Design-led teams
Empower non-developers to build and analyze tests.
Data-driven decisions
Sync with GA4 or CRM for meaningful segmentation and insights.
Transparent pricing. Freedom to test.
Optimizely’s quote-based pricing and domain restrictions limit flexibility for growing teams. Zoho PageSense gives you the flexibility to test across client sites and subdomains. No gatekeeping. Just transparent pricing built for agencies, SMBs, and fast-moving teams.
Monthly Traffic: visitors
Privacy-first approach
Built-in compliance with global privacy laws and complete control over tracking means you can respect user privacy while learning what works.
