Engage Update 1.93 – December 12th 2015

The Engage 1.93 release went live on Saturday 12th of December 2015.

The big benefit in this release is the addition of folders for all your Automated Mailouts.

Other notable enhancements include introducing the utm_term and User ID fields to the Google Analytics link tracking dialog and the inclusion of web tracking events in contact history.

As always, there are also a few tweaks and bug fixes to to the Engage platform included too.

As Engage users have been creating more automated campaigns, an increasing need was identified for an extra level of organisation.

In this release, you can create automated mailout folders to store all your automated campaigns in and move automated mailouts between folders.

Web tracking has been one of the biggest product releases this year and we are already seeing some exciting things being done with it!

Engage will now show when contacts have matched a web tracking goal in the contact history screen.

 

Google’s Universal Analytics tracking module allows you to track visitors across multiple devices and sessions.

Engage now allows you to append your own User ID (uid) parameter to tracked links, which is used by Universal Analytics for more accurate tracking.

Ubiquity have also added the utm_term parameter to the dialog if you want to use this with Google Analytics.

There are a lot of very exciting features on the roadmap for 2016.

Here’s some of what is being worked on over the next few months:

• Improved A/B testing functionality
• User interface improvements
• Closer web tracking integration with the rest of Engage
• Better integration with other platforms
