Considered Both Products
Microsoft Advertising
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Microsoft is the best if you want to target the USA business; it has a great standing against these other platforms.
Chose Microsoft Advertising
We're using both. Basically using directly importation from google to Microsoft Advertising. If you already run ads on google, it's very easy to copy the structure on Microsoft Advertising as well.
Chose Microsoft Advertising
In my opinion, Microsoft Ads is definitely inferior to Google Ads as a platform, but there's no reason you can't use both. We have never chosen Microsoft Ads solely over Google Ads, it's only a supplement because Google Ads provides so much more scale potential from its search …
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Because of duckduckgo we have to use Microsoft advertising and it turns out as the worst user experience given the company of this magnitude. Worst.
Chose Microsoft Advertising
This is a platform that had potential if only it was run by ethically minded people. It's not.
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Not a good experience I will you skippable ads on Youtube.
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Technically, there is no comparison with the above systems - just a lack of features and a bunch of technical bugs.
Chose Microsoft Advertising
The cost per click is definitely lower than Google Ads. But the drawback of it is that the audience size is smaller as well. The reason we picked Microsoft Advertising is that it is a good complementary solution to Google Ads. We use both of them with different budgets and we …
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Microsoft Advertising supports Google Ads integration, one of the efficient paid search engine extension. More so, Microsoft Advertising has a responsive, and informative live chat option, simplifying the customer help services. Microsoft Advertising supports conversion …
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Microsoft advertising is a creative, and diverse marketing option, which makes it preferred by many enterprises. The success rate of Microsoft advertising due to its stability and consistency is another huge merit, and this results to practical results. Finally, Microsoft …
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Obviously Google is a huge competitor. Typically Google is top of the game for many advertising solutions including search. Microsoft ads has a lower scale and reach compared to Google. However, Microsoft ads audience does not overlap much with Googles, providing incremental …
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Microsoft Advertising has more trustworthy and reliable keyword targeting, but the volume is much lower on Bing.com and related networks than on Google.com and related networks. The display capabilities and performance is lower on Bing as well. The import tool is easy to use …
Chose Microsoft Advertising
It's a smaller market and different demographic, but CPCs can be lower so your ROI can be decent. Overall the interface feels a bit clunky and it's hard to find some features, but that may be because I spend most of my time in Google Ads.

We picked Microsoft Ads because it's …
Chose Microsoft Advertising
[Microsoft Advertising (formerly Bing Ads)] has access to superior traffic volume and ability / capability to spend ad dollars. [Microsoft Advertising (formerly Bing Ads)] is really the only paid search advertising option that competes with google ads in any capacity whether …
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Unfortunately, I don't think anyone has been able to properly and effectively compete with Google. They are the mammoth in the space - so therefore, I don't think either Bing or Gemini have had a fair shot to showcase their potential worth.
Again, I have found it very difficult …
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Bing Ads has a bit less traffic, however, its syndicated network is preferred because we can see where traffic is coming from. I would like to see custom mods for publisher sites to become a feature.
Chose Microsoft Advertising
You have lower volume on Bing ads but the traffic is usually better and you get lower CPC with higher conversion rates.
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Bing Ads works similarly to Google Ads (Formerly AdWords) in the fact that it is search engine marketing. It differs in how it reaches a slightly more educated audience, has lower CPC (less competition) and often a better ROI. "Green technologies", solar, wind, etc. work …
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Bing Ads is an excellent complement to Google Ads because most likely, it is reaching a different audience. Depending on where your traffic is coming from, one search engine may be better to focus on than the other.
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Less cost than Google Ads but smaller audience. The interface is not as user-friendly and it is somewhat slow. The Bing Ads audience is smaller as they only have about 20% of the search market place. So you are limited by the number of searches vs. budget usually.
Chose Microsoft Advertising
In general, Bing Ads as an alternative to Google Ads is pretty weak. As mentioned, while it does have its use cases, many times these are limited as well. With Bing, it seems like there is always a large drop off in the quality of traffic versus advertising products, which …
Chose Microsoft Advertising
Bing is definitely most comparable to Google; in terms of audience sizes, it has about 30% of the traffic that Google Ads can drive; however, its costs are much more efficient, and this additional inventory is less competitive. Additionally, Bing has some features not available …
Chose Microsoft Advertising
As mentioned, it is overall more cost effective and you cannot afford to ignore all that Search traffic.
Ubersuggest
Chose Ubersuggest
Moz and Google Search Console need to be used along with Ubersuggest for best results. Hence, I still use them. I have tried Semrush but it is slightly pricey for small businesses hence I considered Ubersuggest instead.
Chose Ubersuggest
Very good and easy for those starting out. There are other more robust and better featured products, but they are more expensive. The others also have phone support options, which I have found very useful in the past.

For larger companies I would probably look at someting else, …
Chose Ubersuggest
We use each SEO research platform for different purposes. I believe they complement each other. Ubersuggest strengths, according to my experience, are related to content ideas, comprehensive keyword research to determine competitors' backlinks, and difficulty in achieving the …
Chose Ubersuggest
UberSuggest is an excellent starter SEO tool. Though it is not as powerful as Semrush and other expensive SEO tools, it really does everything a small business or agency needs. We have been using it for 3 years and have had no complaints. It is extremely easy to use, super …
Chose Ubersuggest
Thought it would be easier and wanted to support Neil. Waste of time and money and would never work with his company or his tools ever again.
Chose Ubersuggest
Ubersuggest is much easier to use, not overly complex and much more affordable. You can get results in less than 10 minutes without much work, whereas with competitors you need to really study how to use them first.
Chose Ubersuggest
It's on the cheaper side, so for starters on a budget, you can use the free version or the cheaper paid one. Other tools offer way more functions but can also be overwhelming that way. Ubersuggest is going with the times. If you are a beginner or small company, use Ubersuggest. …

User Testimonials
Microsoft AdvertisingUbersuggest
Likelihood to Recommend
Despite using our account for advertising with every other social media company, Microsoft flagged ours as fraudulent. After dealing with them for weeks, we finally got to a manager, who said that they didn’t know anything, couldn’t provide any information, and was unable to do anything about it. It seems odd, but it would flagger account every time we try to upload the campaigns from Google directly into their ad manager. I would suggest if you try and use their platform, don’t tell them you’re using Google cause they seem to have a thing against it. Once your account is flagged, they have no reasonable way of resolving it, nor they are able to offer any support. You’re better off to just try a different way. Ultimately, just don’t use Microsoft advertising if you can possibly avoid it. Hopefully soon DuckDuckGo will have their own advertising platform and we can eliminate Microsoft given the terrible time we have working with this one of many, social media platforms.

Ubersuggest is well suited for people who needs to conduct a basic keyword research to rank content in google. Whoever, the tool can be limited for people with more expertise and SEO knowledge. Nevertheless, having more free tools than other similar platforms, I recommend it to those who are starting in SEO.

Pros
  • Familiar interface, offers editor for bulk changes, adding negative keywords is much easier than in Google Ads
  • Nice reporting tools within the interface, detailed reports can be made fairly easily
  • Had very nice tools to help import/export ads directly from Google Ads, which saves a ton of time

  • Monitoring broken links - helps optimise your Google ranking
  • Researching hashtags and keywords for website and social media to keep relevant

Cons
  • Bing's ad platform could definitely use some improvements - it hasn't been updated in a long time, and it feels very outdated.
  • We feel that the optimization algorithms don't always perform as well for Bing Ads as they do in Google Ads (optimize for conversions, etc.).
  • It would be great to have even more integrations with LinkedIn audience targeting offered - right now, you can just make some bid optimizations in a couple of areas; we'd really like to get more robust options there, and maybe even things like cross-platform tracking.

  • Nothing really--it's complete as it is for the price.
  • Numbers are not always correct but this is basic with multiple tools.
  • They could add a page scan to see how well a page scores.

Usability
It's very easy to use overall. It has an import from Google Ads to make things simpler. Overall, I would say you can get up and running very quickly. It's similar to other platforms, so if you have used them, it's intuitive.

Ubersuggest is relatively easy to navigate, even for beginners. The layout is simple and intuitive, which makes it accessible for users with little to no SEO experience. It doesn’t have the overwhelming complexity of tools like Ahrefs or SEMrush. Users can start using the tool right away without needing extensive onboarding. You can quickly enter a domain, run a site audit, or perform keyword research without having to dig through tutorials or guides.

Support Rating
Our Bing Ads reps are very good and attentive. They've offered good recommendations and are quick to resolve unexpected issues and problems. Occasionally they have roped in technical support folks that have been friendly and helpful too. The general helpline for Bing Ads is also very good, especially when compared to Google's customer support.
Read full review
They have a lot of information on their website, and also training and contact options in the tool. So you can learn on the go while trying the tool. And if you are stuck, support reacts really fast--sometimes the same day, sometimes the next day due to time zones. Payment is easy and easy to cancel.

Obviously Google is a huge competitor. Typically Google is top of the game for many advertising solutions including search. Microsoft ads has a lower scale and reach compared to Google. However, Microsoft ads audience does not overlap much with Googles, providing incremental reach. Although Microsoft ads lags a bit behind in adapting the new updates that Google comes out with, their customer service is very good and they are likely to go out of their way to adapt their platform to your needs whereas their competitor does not

Return on Investment
  • We've had a very hard time spending our budgets on Bing which has caused us a lot of extra work on our end. We've essentially had to move that money back to Google or other platforms.
  • It does have an easy import from Google so you're not doubling efforts.
  • The CPCs tend to be less expensive than Google - which is always good for business owners.

  • Ubersuggest helps us with content ideas which turns into ROI eventually.
  • Ubersuggest helps our company team easily find competitors for any project we are designing.
  • Ubersuggest Content GAP is a great alternative tool we use aside from another SEO platform we use.
