Optimizely DXP: Gartner-Recognized Leader for Personalization in 2026
Turning personalisation capability into business outcomes with Optimizely
The Optimizely DXP has once again been recognised as a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Personalization Engines. This marks the second consecutive year the platform has been positioned in the Leaders quadrant.
For organisations investing in AI-driven personalization, experimentation and digital optimisation, this recognition reinforces Optimizely’s strength in both vision and execution.
Why This Recognition Matters
Enterprise personalization has evolved significantly. Businesses now require:
- AI-powered orchestration that reduces manual configuration
- Experimentation analytics integrated with enterprise data warehouses
- Governance-ready architecture that supports compliance
- Developer tools that accelerate deployment and iteration
Over the past year, Optimizely has advanced across each of these areas.
The acquisition of NetSpring expanded analytics capabilities, allowing experimentation data to integrate directly with customer data warehouses. This enables deeper analysis while maintaining enterprise data governance standards.
The launch of Optimizely Opal introduced agent-based orchestration. By shifting complexity to AI-driven agents, Opal helps teams automate personalization workflows and continuously optimise experiences at scale.
These innovations reduce operational complexity while increasing the impact of experimentation and personalization programmes.
