Octagon Insurance Company Limited, a Gibraltar-based car insurance company in the UK, was having difficulty understanding why their website conversion rates were dropping, and why customers were abandoning policies before they were complete. They had limited information on their visitors’ behavior and struggled to draw cohesive conclusions on how to improve their website. They could not determine precisely why site conversion rates dropped or why customers behaved in a certain manner. They knew what was happening, but they didn’t know why.
