}}Optimizely is an American company that makes customer experience optimization software for other companies. The Optimizely platform technology provides A/B testing tools, in which two versions of a web page can be compared for performance, and multivariate testing. Optimizely also enables personalization, which may be used for making data-driven decisions. The personalization capability can be used for serving online advertising.[2]

The company's headquarters are in San Francisco, California with offices in Amsterdam, Netherlands, Cologne, Germany, London, United Kingdom and Sydney, Australia.[3][4]

History

Optimizely was founded in 2010 by Dan Siroker and Pete Koomen, both formerly of Google.[5][6][7] Optimizely completed the Y Combinator program in the winter of 2010.[8] In November 2010, Optimizely closed a US$1.2 million funding round from angel investors.[9] The company became cash flow positive in 2011. In May 2012 Optimizely announced that it had raised new funding from Battery Ventures, Google Ventures, and InterWest Partners.[10]

In April 2013, Optimizely raised $28 million in Series A round funding. The round was led by Benchmark, with participation from Bain Capital Ventures and Optimizely's existing investors Battery Ventures, InterWest Partners, and Google Ventures. Benchmark's Peter Fenton joined Optimizely's board of directors.[11] As part of a larger international expansion plan, Optimizely announced in April 2013 the launch of their platform in nine additional languages: Danish, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish, and Swedish.[12]

In April 2014, the San Francisco Business Times ranked Optimizely as the #1 place to work among medium-sized companies (101-500 employees).[13] On April 17, Optimizely held its first Opticon user conference, where they announced the launch of their new mobile app A/B testing software.[14]

In May 2014, Optimizely raised $57 million in Series B funding. The round was led by Andreessen Horowitz with participation from Benchmark and Bain Capital Ventures. As part of the round, Scott Weiss general partner at Andreessen Horowitz joined Optimizely's board of directors.[15]

In October 2015 the company released its second product for mobile and website personalization.[16][17][18] In the same month Optimizely raised $58 million in Series C funding, led by Index Ventures, with participation from firms such as Andreessen Horowitz, Bain Capital Ventures, Battery Ventures, Benchmark Capital, Citi Ventures, Danhua Capital, Salesforce Ventures and Tenaya Capital. As part of the round, Ilya Fushman of Index joined Optimizely's board of directors.[19][20][21]

On March 10, 2016 Optimizely laid off 40 employees, 10% of the workforce.[22][23]

In September 2016, the company released Optimizely X, with expanded solutions for web experimentation, personalization, recommendations, mobile, full stack and OTT.[24]

In July 2017, Jay Larson replaced Dan Siroker as the company's CEO.[25] Pete Koomen was the company's CTO in 2012.[25][26][27][28] Co-founder Dan Joseph Siroker became the company's Executive Chairman in July 2017.[29][5][30][31][32]

Software

Optimizely's experimentation platform is called Optimizely X, with tools for web experimentation, personalization, recommendations, mobile, full stack and over-the-top content. The optimization is delivered in a software as a service (SaaS) model.[33]

Conference

Opticon is a user conference organized by Optimizely focused on web experience optimization.[34] The first Opticon conference was held on April 17, 2014 in San Francisco, where Optimizely announced their mobile A/B testing product.[14][35] The second Opticon conference was held on June 17 & 18, 2015, also in San Francisco[36], where they announced a new Personalization product.[16][17][18] Marc Andreessen was the keynote speaker.
