Best for: A/B testing and conversion rate optimization
Last updated: October 29, 2026
Wingify is the company behind VWO (Visual Website Optimizer), a leading experimentation and conversion rate optimization (CRO) platform. VWO combines A/B testing, multivariate testing, heatmaps, session recordings, on-site surveys and personalization in one tool, so teams can find what to test and validate changes with data rather than guesswork. Wingify is expanding it into a broader Digital Experience Optimization suite (experimentation, personalization, feature management, behavioral insight, surveys, commerce, AI). It's well-regarded (strong Gartner and user reviews). The honest catches: pricing is opaque and quote-based, scales steeply with tracked users (expensive at high traffic), the free Starter plan is discontinued/heavily restricted (now a 30-day trial), there's a steeper learning curve than simple A/B tools, and the AB Tasty merger is vendor-stated and in progress.
STARTS AT
From ~$198/mo (quote)
VWO's pricing is quote-based and not fully public, and figures vary widely by traffic and source, so request a quote. Reported entry pricing starts around $198/mo (Growth, annual) — A/B testing, heatmaps and session recordings for a limited number of monthly tracked users — with Pro and Enterprise custom-priced (Pro adds multivariate testing and advanced targeting). Crucially, cost scales steeply with traffic: in-app figures for ~100,000 tracked users have been reported far higher (~$665/mo Growth, ~$1,300+ Pro), and only appear after you register. The previously free Starter plan has been discontinued/heavily restricted, with new sign-ups now getting a 30-day trial. Because pricing depends on your traffic and features and isn't transparent on the public site, get a tailored quote and confirm tracked-user limits before budgeting.
Wingify is the software company behind VWO (Visual Website Optimizer), a leading experimentation and conversion rate optimization platform. VWO lets marketing and product teams run A/B and multivariate tests, view heatmaps and session recordings to understand behavior, gather feedback via on-site surveys, and personalize experiences — all from one platform — so teams improve conversions with data rather than guesswork. Wingify is also expanding into a broader Digital Experience Optimization suite spanning experimentation, personalization, feature management, behavioral insight, surveys, commerce and AI, with an enterprise governance layer. In 2025 a private equity firm took a majority stake, and the company has described merging with AB Tasty over time. In short, Wingify is the vendor and VWO is its flagship CRO product.
Running experiments and improving conversion rates with a full toolkit in one place. VWO's strength is combining A/B testing, multivariate testing, heatmaps, session recordings, on-site surveys and personalization, so teams can both discover what to test (via behavioral insight) and run rigorous experiments to validate changes. That suits marketing, growth and product teams at mid-sized and larger businesses that take CRO seriously and want robust statistics, targeting and reporting rather than a basic split-test tool. Its heatmaps and recordings help explain why visitors behave as they do, while its experimentation engine measures the impact of changes. For organizations building a repeatable optimization program across web and increasingly mobile and backend, that breadth and analytical depth is VWO's core appeal — reflected in its strong analyst and user reviews.
Not really anymore — a change worth noting. VWO historically offered a free Starter plan capped at a number of monthly tracked users, but reports indicate that free tier has been discontinued or heavily restricted since late 2025, with existing free users notified and new sign-ups now receiving a 30-day trial instead of a permanent free plan. So you can still try VWO without paying for a limited period, but don't count on an ongoing free tier for long-term low-volume use. If budget is a primary concern this matters, because after the trial you move to paid plans whose cost scales with traffic. Confirm the current trial length and whether any limited free option still exists directly with VWO, since these terms have been changing — and factor the lack of a permanent free tier into your decision if you're a small or early-stage site.
A few, mostly around pricing and complexity rather than capability. Pricing is opaque and quote-based, with real costs only visible after registering, and it scales steeply with tracked users, so VWO can become expensive for high-traffic sites (reflected in modest value-for-money scores from some reviewers). The removal/heavy restriction of the free tier makes it less accessible for small or budget-conscious teams. VWO is also powerful and feature-rich, so it has a steeper learning curve than simple A/B tools and rewards teams that invest in using it properly. Finally, the described merger with AB Tasty under the Wingify umbrella is the company's own stated direction and is being carried out over time, so the exact shape of the combined suite may evolve. None undermine the core product (well regarded), but weigh cost at your traffic level, the learning curve and the pricing opacity before committing.
Marketing, growth and product teams at mid-sized and larger businesses that run a serious conversion-optimization program and want an all-in-one experimentation platform combining A/B and multivariate testing with heatmaps, recordings, surveys and personalization. It suits organizations with enough traffic to test meaningfully and the resources to invest in experimentation, that value analytical depth, targeting and reporting, and that are moving toward a broader digital experience optimization practice across web, mobile and backend. It's a weaker fit for very small or low-traffic sites needing a cheap or free tool, for teams wanting fully transparent, low-cost pricing, or for those who need only basic split testing without the broader feature set and its learning curve. Match VWO to conversion-focused teams that will use its full toolkit and can justify quote-based pricing that grows with their traffic.
