Bye Bye SiteVista – Hello Litmus

It seems only yesterday that the guys behind SiteVista let me take a look at what they were cooking, but if you look at my original post it was over two years ago!
I gather that SiteVista was successful and I did see its name cropping up all over the place, but for whatever reasons they guys decided to revamp it and rename it – Litmus was born!
Paul gave me access to a beta account on the new system a couple of weeks ago, but I didn’t get a chance to write about my experiences with it (besides they needed time to iron out some of the bugs).
The new interface is very slick and incredibly fast.
They’ve increased the number of browsers they’re testing against dramatically to include a number of weird and wonderful combinations, so you too can cater for the oddballs 🙂
(I wish whoever was looking after sites like the CRO would use services like this! )
One of the really nice features they’ve added is the option to share tests with the public via an easy option in the dashboard.
So, for example, you could go here to see the tests I ran on an MT4 install.
They’ve also added an email testing suite, so that you can iron out potential issues across a wide range of email clients. Want to know how your newsletter looks in AOL for example? Now you can.
If you haven’t got an account I’d heartily recommend you signup for a free 30 day trial. You can then whine at your web designers and back it up with proof! 🙂
