Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about KISSmetrics vs AB Tasty.

Yes - every KISSmetrics customer receives a complimentary 1-hour hands-on onboarding call with our analytics team. We work directly with you to set up tracking for your specific business model, configure your first reports, and ensure you are measuring the KPIs that matter most. We also provide step-by-step documentation, best-practice templates, and ongoing support from analytics specialists.

Yes. KISSmetrics does not feature-gate any capability. Whether you are on our $99/month plan or an enterprise plan, you get full access to funnels, cohorts, revenue reports, A/B testing, people tracking, segmentation, and every other feature. Pricing scales based on event counts, not feature access. Plus, your bill is capped at $99/mo for the first two months so you can explore the full platform risk-free. You never have to upgrade just to unlock a report type.

Most analytics tools track sessions - anonymous visits that expire after 30 minutes. KISSmetrics tracks people. Every visitor gets a persistent identity that follows them across sessions, devices, and months of activity. This means you can see the complete journey from first anonymous visit through signup, activation, purchase, and repeat behavior - all tied to a real person, not a cookie.

Absolutely. Revenue attribution is a core strength of KISSmetrics. You can connect every dollar of revenue back to the marketing touchpoint that drove it - whether that is a paid ad, organic search, email campaign, or referral. Use first-touch, last-touch, or multi-touch attribution models to understand the true ROI of your marketing spend.

Most teams see actionable insights within the first week. Basic tracking setup takes 30-60 minutes with our JavaScript snippet. With the included onboarding call, our team helps you configure the reports that matter most to your business on day one. You do not need a data team or months of configuration to start making data-driven decisions.

KISSmetrics is built around the individual person - not aggregate metrics or anonymous sessions. While AB Tasty has a different primary focus, KISSmetrics gives you a complete view of each customer's lifecycle - from first touch to revenue and beyond. You can answer questions like "Which customers are most valuable?", "What actions predict conversion?", and "Where exactly are we losing people in the funnel?"

For many teams, yes. KISSmetrics combines person-level tracking, funnel analysis, cohort analysis, revenue reporting, A/B testing, and behavioral segmentation in one platform. Teams that previously needed separate tools for product analytics, revenue tracking, and experimentation often consolidate to KISSmetrics - reducing costs and eliminating data silos.

Migration is straightforward. You can run KISSmetrics alongside AB Tasty during the transition - there is no need to rip and replace. Our onboarding team will help you map your existing tracking to KISSmetrics events and properties. Most migrations are complete within 1-2 hours for analytics setup, 1-2 weeks to migrate experiments.

No. AB Tasty provides experiment-level reporting but lacks behavioral analytics, funnel analysis, cohort reports, and revenue attribution. You need a dedicated analytics platform alongside it.

KISSmetrics A/B testing is code-based, which offers more flexibility but requires some technical setup. AB Tasty's visual editor is better for teams without developer resources.

Both serve e-commerce well but differently. KISSmetrics tracks the full customer journey and revenue attribution. AB Tasty optimizes specific pages with visual tests and conversion widgets.

Yes. Some teams use AB Tasty for visual A/B tests and KISSmetrics for deeper analytics and revenue tracking. However, KISSmetrics built-in A/B testing may eliminate the need for a separate tool.
