One of my favorite online tools. The real value for money at my side starts when I put 1$ in and get at least 10$ out. With OptiMonks kickass premade popup templates I’ve made so powerful campaigns (no design skills at all, I’ve grown up on Canva 😀),​ that it’s crushed my ROI. With the FREE trial, it’s a real no brainer.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Tons of free templates, outstanding design, powerful triggering settings. I've tried a couple of alternatives, but this one is delightful 👌

#### Cons

The only thing I’m missing is the built-in​ embedded forms function. That would be reaaallly astounding 😀

#### Vendor response

Thank you soo much for sharing your thoughts with us :)

### Fun and interactive templates for capturing emails

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Katya V.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Computer Software
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months
- Reviewed: November 2022

Optimonk has many intuitive and attractive pop-ups that have high customizability (to show after x amount of seconds, certain % of scroll etc). I know people have gotten great results with Optimonk so I am looking forward to split testing (they have that option) and finding the right match for our audience.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Starting out with the templates, I loved the variety of choices offered. Many industries were covered and different methods of email capturing were available, from game-like spin the wheel, to personalized questions (which is what we chose).

#### Cons

Although it was fun to set up, our conversions haven't increased as significantly as we had thought, compared to our previous popup software. I wonder if the ranking / sorting system is accurate and truly shows which ones have the highest conversion rate. Also, in my own testing of the results, I found that the pop-up did not come out exactly when I programmed it to. Sometimes it would take much longer than the x seconds / % scroll I chose.

#### Reasons for switching to OptiMonk

We found that optimonk had higher customizability for mobile

Nice combination of tools for lead generation and scarcity tactics that integrates with Zapier to any platform you use to nurture the leads.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Great to setup with wordpress. Settings and rules for targeting, appearance, lead generation, etc are very easy to implement. Support team is also great and helpful. They work closely to us to improve SEO performance within the plugin.

#### Cons

Pricing model based on pageviews can make the tool expensive, specially when you have campaigns. The pricing is calculated with the entire pageviews of the entire site.

#### Reasons for choosing OptiMonk

Pricing and easy of use

#### Reasons for switching to OptiMonk

#### Pros

Optimonk gives a fantastic customers experience on website. There is a pop up for everything whether you want to collect emails or promote your social media or collect feedback. They have even Holiday based themes for better performance

#### Cons

There are some features which are only available on the paid plan but that’s understandable

### Best way of collecting Facebook Messenger subscribers

With 80-90% open rates, Messenger marketing is the new email marketing. OptiMonk is one of the earliest adopters of boosting Messenger sign-ups that comes with lots of personalization features.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Smart form display: asking Messenger opt-in instead of forcing email sign ups when the user is logged into Messenger. That’s super useful especially on mobile devices.

#### Cons

I don’t really have any complaints, rather a feature request :slightly_smiling_face: More templates (e.g. side messages) with Messenger opt-in.

#### Vendor response

Thanks for sharing your thoughts We're just working on dozens of new templates - including some sidemessages that can be used to gather Facebook Messenger subscribers :)

- Reviewed: December 2019

My overall experience has been really good and would recommend to anyone wanting to try this for your website. The interface is really friendly and you don't need any technical skills and wherever technical skills are required, you can get in touch with the customer support; they will sort things out for you in a flash. So far it has been a good experience!

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

The dashboard is easy to understand and play around with Creation and implementation of campaigns is very user-friendly Creating custom form fields is also very easy All in all the user interface is really good The customer support team is a real champion - very responsive, helpful and lightning quick.

#### Cons

There are some limitations/wishlists from OptiMonk A lot of integration is still not available and a webhook does not really provide a great experience Certain customisations are not possible straight forward and need a workaround where you end up losing some in-built features The designs/templates could have a little more variety say maybe from an industry perspective

#### Vendor response

Dear Anik! We're glad you found the user interface and the support really good :) We would be very pleased if you could send your integration requests to our support team (support@optimonk.com), and we will investigate them. It's also a great idea to create industry-specific templates - thanks for sharing it with us.

- Reviewed: June 2022
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

The platform provides a seamless user experience and learning the interface was very intuitive. The goal was to capture more of the visitors to nurture them and convert them to customers. That mission was accomplished efficiently.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5

Out of several trialed products, OptiMonk was the most user-friendly and easy to integrate. The opt-in rate doubled when compared to the previous provider. Connecting to our automation tool was seamless. Split testing of different display options was push-button simple.

#### Cons

The analytics could have been more in-depth. There were some metrics that would have been beneficial to our analysis and optimization decisions.

Overall it was great while we used it but right now it doesn't serve me.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

My business partner setup Optimonk so I don't know the specifics on it except how it works on the front end. I like how we could choose when the pop-ups happened, how often, etc. It always worked and integrated well with ActiveCampaign,

#### Cons

When I wasn't working with my partner anymore, I ultimately stopped using this software simply because I could do pop-ups for free in my Kajabi website. I prefer all-in-one solutions to simple things like this because it's too much to manage integrations and to continue to pay for each service.

#### Vendor response

Hi Angela - Thank you so much for your thoughts, we really appreciate your feedback :)

#### Ratings breakdown

The range of functionality on the free version alone is simply outstanding. There are so many settings to configure that there is little chance you won't find a way to configure to your perfect desires.

#### Cons

There are so many configurations possible, that you can get a little overwhlemed, and lost in the menus and submenus. Perhaps a tutorial video with an expert navigating all the menus and settings (and their effects) would be helpful.
