I love this company. We use them every day and we recommend them to all of our merchants (who in turn love them). Their product is in a small but distinguished group of tools that are so good they set a new standard. I consider circleci amongst that group, for reference.<p>Congrats guys

Congrats on the funding.<p>Perhaps Optimizely should run a test on their blog to see if their overall revenue is truly boosted by blocking cmd&#x2F;ctrl+click on the &quot;homepage&quot; link (or pricing, or about). I&#x27;m reading the blog post, but want to also open their sales site in another tab, and... I can&#x27;t. Feels like a bad idea to me, but maybe there&#x27;s some logic behind it?

Wow huge round for 7,000 users, but I think I missed something. The plans range from $14 to $293&#x2F;month and then there is an enterpise plan. If we say the average revenue&#x2F;user is $100&#x2F;month that would be $700,000 in revenue&#x2F;month * 12 = $1.14M&#x2F;year? Pretty impressive for 7,000 users, however, with 200 employees the burn rate is $10M&#x2F;year?<p>Despite that the valuation is $200M, what did I miss?

I was a huge user of Google Website Optimizer. It was so easy -- you just put Google&#x27;s JavaScript in your site and it shows your users different versions of the page.<p>When Google shut it down, I tried Optimizely a few times. It was so much more complicated, I didn&#x27;t have the time or skill to setup tests.<p>Optimizely- Congrats on the funding. I still want to use you. And maybe I&#x27;m dumb, but I have trouble figuring you out. Anything I can do?<p>Anyone know of a simpler alternative to Optimizely?

Most comments here focus on the immediate revenue potential. But this is part of a much larger ecosystem, that spends billions of dollars deploying enterprise marketing platforms with Adobe, IBM, SAS, Oracle. Performance Optimization is just one of the many areas in this space.<p>The enterprise marketing platform is an area ready for disruption. Few large, expensive and slow players. Most offering clunky proprietary products, that require a huge learning curve.<p>After (if?) Optimizely solidify presence in this space, they can move up the food chain: tagging, re-targeting, DMP, personalization, campaign management, content management, etc.<p>So far they&#x27;re off to a good start. And worst case scenario, they&#x27;ll be acquired by Adobe and will become the new version of Test &amp; Target.

Congrats.<p>&quot;Triple digit year-over-year growth in annual revenue since launching in 2010.&quot;<p>Is easily misleading without context.<p>I don&#x27;t expect companies to divulge revenue numbers, but a company founded on data driven insights for site content, could probably choose more appropriate metrics to share.

Random thought: Companies like optimizely have key data on its customers (conversion rates) and it may be valuable to a VC to have a board seat &#x2F; access for the data alone. Not alleging any malfeasance here, just think it is an interesting angle.
