2. Funnel Tracking
It is not enough to set up conversion funnels. Getting insights on the journey of your target audience through your funnel matters.
Oribi allows you to track every move a user makes on your funnel. Most importantly knowing where they drop off on the funnel.
If your target audience continues to exit your funnel at a high rate without converting to sales, it means that something is wrong with the funnel. Funnel tracking on Oribi reveals all these to you. Plus gives you actionable steps to optimize your funnel.
For instance, you set up a funnel to promote a product or service. Oribi will show you the number and percentage of users that visited your page, the number that created accounts, activated their accounts, started a free trial, and upgraded to a paid plan.
You got to know the percentage of users that began a funnel and completed it. You can view the breakdown of your funnel, compare periods to know a particular time that drove more conversion.
There is a filter option to track the performance of your funnel via channels, devices, and countries. You can do all these without setting up any rules or coding. Just a single click and you see data presented in a simple and understandable format.
3. Campaign Tracking
You will be flushing money down the toilet if you spend money promoting your products and services on the wrong channel.
The campaign tracking feature on Oribi helps you get the sweet spot of your campaign. Plus provides you with the actionable steps to continue to optimize it for more conversions.
For example, you have a campaign running on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Google. Oribi evaluates how your ads are performing on each channel against your goal.
You can track campaigns and compare them to one another using the UTM. You don’t have to set up any tracking code, unlike Google Analytics where it is a must to track multiple campaigns.
You will see unique sign-ups for different campaign channels. Plus their respective conversion rate. You can filter by date to know the days that drove more sign-ups and conversion.
4. Visitors Journey
The behavior of visitors who land on your website should be a concern to you. Having an accurate insight into it can help you understand what your prospective customers want and know if you satisfy them or not.
The visitors journey feature on Oribi pinpoints every action of your user starting from the moment they land on your website. For subscribers on your email list, you can use their email addresses to track their journey on your website.
This will help you understand them better and personalize your emails to them to increase your conversion rate.
Oribi tells you the following about visitors to your website:
- Duration
- Device used
- Number of sessions
- New or returning visitor
- Channel
- User flow and interaction with pages
- Country and location
- Rate of activeness
You can use the filter option to organize different segments and understand the behavior of individual users.
There is a custom filter for you to dive deep into the actions of users. For example, you can find visitors who clicked on a sign-up button, subscribed or unsubscribed to your newsletter, downloaded a freebie, etc.
This feature stands Oribi from its rivals like Google Analytics where you have to look at the user flow which is complex to understand the behavior of users on your site.
Plus you have to set up a User ID on Google Analytics to track users who signed into accounts and prevent false session reports.
5. Ease of Use
Unlike other web analytics that requires you to have coding skills or be a data analyst, Oribi makes everything simple for you.
There is no learning curve because it does the analysis for you once the code goes to your website. The features are easy to explore. You can monitor and track campaigns. On your dashboard, you can create a magic event to group events you are tracking.
For example, you have products you are promoting, you can add the product page URL to page visit events.
Then Oribi uses the funnel feature to track how visitors to your page move from one stage to another before converting to sales.
6. Insights & Trends
To ensure that your marketing efforts pay off, knowing the insights and trends on your website is key. This allows you to know what you should make a priority. Oribi provides you with insights and actionable steps you need to take.
For example, you can know what is trending in a particular location and see if you can optimize your campaign to leverage such opportunities to boost your sales. Plus discover your top-performing and non-performing pages on your site.
If you are running a campaign, you can see the channel that is driving more visitors, leads, and conversions. You can compare campaign channels, devices, locations, and dates to see which yielded more positive results.
Oribi provides you with real-time trends on key metrics and insights on what caused the trends to be it positive or negative. On your product page, you can see the pricing plan that your visitors prefer most and while your conversion rate is increasing or decreasing.
7. Integration
Connecting Oribi with other of your favorite tools will make you achieve more in your efforts to optimize your marketing campaigns and drive conversions. Oribi falls short in this area because it connects with a few tools.
Also, it doesn’t support the integration of apps that are not officially on its platform via API. Even the Zapier integration which allows you to connect with a large number of third-party apps is still an upcoming solution on Oribi.
Google Analytics beats it when it comes to integration. On GA, you can connect with more apps including the use of Zapier and API. Below is a list of tools that connect with Oribi at this moment:
- Intercom to personalize messages to your leads
- Activecampaign to capture website visitors to your email list and track their actions on your website to make better email marketing decisions
- Klayvio for building segments for high target customers
- Hubspot to build workflow base on how users interact with your website
- Google Ads to create remarketing lists based on the behavior of website visitors
- Facebook for retargeting visitors to your website on Facebook.
- Mailchimp to create personalized emails and custom segments
Note: Zapier, Hubspot, and Salesforce are upcoming tools to feature on the official integration list of Oribi
8. Pricing Plans
Oribi has three pricing plans and we will look at them below.
Business website plan
This is the least pricing plan Oribi offers. It has Optimize, Growth, and Optimize sub plans. I will recommend it for small businesses.
