Personalization software is used to create personal website experiences based on user preferences. Personalization software leverages cookies, collaborative filtering, data analysis tools, and user profiling to tailor each website visitor experience. Organizations use personalization software to meet their customers’ needs in a more efficient manner and to increase customer satisfaction. Personalization software is often used by product and development teams to maximize a website's performance and to convert website visitors into buyers.
Personalization software can often be implemented as a part of other website performance tools such as A/B testing software and digital analytics software. It can also be used to integrate with e-commerce platforms, shopping cart software, and product information management (PIM) software to display relevant product information to the prospective buyer.
To qualify for inclusion in the Personalization category, a product must:
Monitor user behavior on channels such as mobile, web, or email
Provide features to create personalized messaging and product recommendations
Target visitors with custom messaging based on behavior and history
Provide a machine learning product that takes user recommendations and applies it to website analytics
