For what it's worth, using Clutch was one of the reasons we ended up making Apptimize. We ran into several bugs including one that was crashing the app we were working on and issues with its probability distribution. And the reporting was very simplistic.
Are you using Clutch now? If so, it'd be awesome if you could give us a try.

#6This looks interesting - although having never really considered using A/B testing on native apps before I did spend a few minutes looking around the site for examples of things to track. Maybe you could show an example project on the site showing what was changed and how that affected sales, etc.?

#8Our organization often comes up with its own secondary metrics based on user data (not just CTR or usage). Is this possible when using Apptimize?

One of the biggest reasons is probably the reason behind using any software as a service rather than doing it yourself: you can concentrate on what you do best and not spend time managing things yourself. A couple of our users switched from using open source alternatives for that reason. We've put a lot of time into our infrastructure and decoupling things so we're very resilient against outages so you don't have to. We've also put a lot of time into making our library more robust and well tested than any alternatives we've seen to date.

I'm guessing because it's better than what they could integrate and build up with an open-source alternative in a short amount of time and thus more cost effective.
