Chose Lotame
We had a list of more than 9 different DMP solutions which we evaluated on different criterias relevant for our business, such as Business Alignement & Pricing, Segment Sharing / Data Selling, 1st Party Data Collection & Storage, 3rd Party Data Integration, Reports / Exports / …
Having used other DMPs, I would consider Lotame to be a leader in the field. The full control and flexibility of tagging and creating a taxonomy within the system allows more granular reporting. Lotame's usage of affinities to help identify interest segments is also something …
Both BlueKai and Krux offered a lot of the same services as Lotame, but their pricetag put them well out of our range. In fact, we were told flat out by one DMP, "unless you have >100MM page views a month, it's not worth talking to us".
There are alternatives in the market - Visual DNA, Bluekai/Oracle/ Adobe Audience Manager, Krux. They all offer a similar offering, however, I prefer the easy UI which is very intuitive even for beginners to the DMP world.
MediaMath is a cloud-based digital advertising platform designed to help marketing teams handle advertising data, audience segmentation, and programmatic marketing on a unified platform. It allows businesses to create, launch, and manage marketing campaigns and identify …
I thought MediaMath stacked up well against Adform Flow. While they both have excellent customer service, I preferred interacting with the rep from MediaMath. They made us feel more looked after. I was not involved with the pricing, but I believe we went with MediaMath because …
We also use Google Display & Video 360 (DV360) - Overall MediaMath is easier to work in because of tagging and campaign structure, but sometimes DV360 has audiences that fit our current needs more than MediaMath. MediaMath's support team has consistently been better than DV360 …
Rocket Fuel, Trade Desk, AppNexus and DBM. We did choose MediaMath for the ease of use of the platform and the presence of an open API to connect all the tools we did need and develop the tools we will need to keep ourself ahead of the competition.
The main DSP I've used beyond TerminalOne MOS is DoubleClick Bid Manager. DBM has stronger 3rd party data from a deterministic standpoint as one can target Google users based on age and gender. Additionally, DBM provides access to YouTube inventory, which is a major plus given …
We are now using Conversant, which is a great all-in-one tool (and is actually a part of the Mediaplex/ValueClick family) and has helped us drive better ROI than we did with MediaMath. We pay more for Conversant compared to just MediaMath, but they do all of the back-end work …
Lotame is a great tool for finding deeper insights about your audience and finding ways to expand your reach. I would recommend it for anyone looking to take the next step in their media strategy to begin using third-party data more effectively. The team at Lotame is also extremely helpful and engaged.
The pricing model of MediaMath with respect to agencies should be a little different, since you have to consider that agencies have various sets of clients with different needs. Not all agency clients have equal budgets to spend. So the platform fee should not be flat rather there should be a formula with respect to spend level and use for each client at agency level.
Ease of use - Set up was straightforward; Exporting Data to our ad server, DSP, Twitter, etc., is one click; building audiences using is fast and there is a huge amount of resources I can put towards audience building.
Customer Service is out of this world, Lotame worked with us to find a program that would train us up, help us out and make us feel confident in our ability to use the platform. And if we have a question or problem, we've found that support is quick to respond and amazingly helpful.
We have a seat with Lotame's DSP - Lotame is helping us train up on that platform as well.
You can't see the results of your campaigns in the same day, you need to wait until next day to see impressions and clicks and general results of your campaigns.
At this point, I know there are better options out there for OUR use case. This is not true of everyone, so I don't want to give them a zero because I don't like their tool or value proposition. They are a great tool, for what they do, and have a great group of people running things and providing support.
We had a list of more than 9 different DMP solutions which we evaluated on different criterias relevant for our business, such as Business Alignement & Pricing, Segment Sharing / Data Selling, 1st Party Data Collection & Storage, 3rd Party Data Integration, Reports / Exports / Forecasting, Customer Service and Roadmap, Audience Building, Additional Features (e.g. Prediction), Data Security, Multi-Plattform Links (SSPs and DSPs, also new channels like Radio...). Based on a scoring table we found Lotame as the best fit to our requirements.
The main DSP I've used beyond TerminalOne MOS is DoubleClickBid Manager. DBM has stronger 3rd party data from a deterministic standpoint as one can target Google users based on age and gender. Additionally, DBM provides access to YouTube inventory, which is a major plus given it is the primary place users consume video content.
