This platform is needed and effective because it reaches new audiences and helps our clients to grow in new areas that Google cant access.

Google Ad Manager is like an angel coming into your organization to save you when you've been battered, beaten, and bruised. The entire UI is a wonderful breath of fresh air. It just "works" where ONE doesn't. The costs, the learning curve, the data organization all outweigh …
Chose Yahoo DSP
I would still say that The Trade Desk and Google DV360 would rank in the top tier for DSPs, while One by AOL would rank in the second tier. That said, the progress and advancements in the last few years from AOP to ONE by AOL to the new Verizon Media platform are worth looking …
Chose Yahoo DSP
I think that each has its own positive qualities. The Oath platform is better for video whereas the TTD is better for targeting and has better levers to pull for geographic constraints.
Chose Yahoo DSP
We moved away from ADTECH (which recently announced it's closure) because it was not being updated and maintained properly to use as an ad server in today's media.
Chose Yahoo DSP
Maybe Google Analytics? But even that doesn't offer the same amount of services as AdTech – and I think that's because this is what AdTech does, and Google is spread a little thin. I use several different platforms, but I did have a lot of fun working with Adtech. Bottom line …

Brightroll transparent reporting and lower cost was the primary reason that it was selected when compared to the other competitors Tube Mogul from Adobe and Ad Roll. Also Yahoo audience network was more suited to the campaign's need in terms of reach and audience type. The …
Chose Yahoo DSP
Any good media person would have a mix on their plan and Brightroll was the "reach" portion. Unfortunately, despite the efficient pricing, the overall performance of the campaign was less than desired. Too cheap, perhaps?

Rubicon Project is super appropriate for Publisher monetization. They excel as a supply side partner. Rubicon Project is less appropriate for Advertising buying tools. Their demand side tools have a way to go for development.

Customer demographics that are not typical of ours are being served by our marketing efforts. We've seen fast expansion as a result of the exposure Yahoo has given us. Because of the low cost per click, users can see results right away. The more traffic there is, the better.

  • Predictive Modeling - always performs well for Conversion & CPA based campaigns; out-performed other DSPs with similar tools.
  • Email Receipt Retargeting - no other DSP offers the ability to do this, so it is 100% proprietary, as far as I know.

Cons
  • If possible to update the reporting to have less delay time on the data.
  • The reporting portal cuts off the bid request data after a period of time.

Return on Investment
  • Rubicon Project has made it easier to optimize so that we could get the fullest ROI on our inventory through their alerts on which deal needs troubleshooting.
  • They also send a daily report which notifies you which advertisers have low render rate which is very helpful when figuring which creatives need to troubleshooting.

  • AdTech helps us determine where to steer our audience, and where to project our next campaign.
  • AdTech helps us view data based on user likes, clicks, and analyze trends among our audience.
  • What I don't like about AdTech is that it can sometimes put some people out of a job, as it streamlines work to the point that some on payroll may be...well, unnecessary.
