Vwo: when it makes sense.
VWO works for CRO teams with medium-to-high traffic seeking a complete platform; for small sites or one-off tests, a free tool fits better.
Keep if
You regularly test variations to optimize conversions.. You have a website with meaningful traffic.
- You use it at least once a week
- The monthly cost (€275) is small next to the time it saves you
Challenge if
Your traffic is very low.. You're looking for a free experimentation tool.
- You use it less than once a month
- A simple free version or a tool already in your stack would do
