  • How it differs from Leanplum

    From 1 comment
    • How is Taplytics different than, say, Leanplum. I've seen so many new A/B testing products in the last few months it's hard to keep track of the differentiating features.

    • Are you affiliated with Optimizely? I ask because I know one of their primary marketing statements is also "A/B testing you'll actually use."
