I would recommend Basis [DSP] for specific clients. Boutique agencies that do not require very complex programmatic solutions are the best fit. It is not very well suited for very big clients that want to run multicountries campaigns with objectives that are very much performance focused. Their dashboard is very good and the platform is easy to use so new entrants to programmatic will find it very useful.

  • Basis DSP does a great job of keeping their clients informed of new and upcoming features on their platform. They regularly host webinars to help keep their clients informed of what's up and coming and how to use new features.
  • Client relations with Basis is incredible. They're available on a regular, consistent basis. In addition, they check in throughout the on boarding process and beyond to help their clients understand they system.
  • The analytics tracking capabilities built into Basis DSP is fantastic. They provide many different options on how to pull and organize reports for clients.
  • The additional training offered through Centro Institute is fantastic, especially for beginners. Going to Chicago and training at the headquarters for a couple of days has helped with my company's success in building a programmatic advertising clientele list and building successful campaigns.

Cons

  • More detail on how and when the exchanges review submitted ad tags would help us set better expectations for our clients and client success teams during launch. Often a delay in ad approvals can result in lagging campaign metrics that must be made up later, often at the cost of performance.
  • More predictive tools / the ability to stop a campaign from bidding when a certain impression threshold is reached (in addition to the dayparting and budget rules that are currently in place and used for every campaign).
  • For some reports, such a geolocation reports, being able to visualize it on a map of some kind would make the data export more meaningful and less manual for our operations and client success teams seeking to explain to clients where their campaign was exposed.

We have a dedicated account rep. She makes it seem like we are her only client, she is very responsive, helps each time we have a question and understands our campaign goals. Anytime we need support, our rep is available either email or call and if she is not going to be available, she will let us know ahead of time to provide back up and inform them of our current campaigns so they can better assist us.

There are a ton of tactics and strategy to implement in the DSP platform. There isn't really a selection of the different types of campaigns or tactics to choose from, you just have to learn as you go. Once you figure out the strategy and goal of the campaign it is very easy to implement the tactic and to achieve its goals.

Advangelist, StackAdapt, Simplifi, Trade Desk, Media Math - overall most of the other platforms we reviewed were perfectly fine and can get the job done quite well. We have mostly stuck with basis because of the relationship that we have, the fact that they have continued to provide stellar support, and have a platform that delivers on everything they promise.

  • Affordable display option - The SiteScout platform runs comparable to other self-serve display platforms, and offers a very large network from which to choose.
  • More visibility for our brand - We've used SiteScout as an awareness tactic, and received millions of impressions at a reasonable cost.

AdNativia Screenshots

Screenshot of a dashboard screenshot from AdNativia that provides an overview of an advertiser’s account performance. The interface displays key metrics such as the total number of ads running, impressions, clicks, and overall spend, allowing for tracking and analysis of advertising campaigns. With a glance, one can appreciate the volume of traffic generated and the efficacy of the ads, highlighted by the number of clicks versus impressions. The graph at the bottom illustrates the trends over the last 30 days, presenting a comparative view of CPC impressions, clicks, and click-through rate (CTR) against the budget spent. This visual representation is an example of AdNativia’s approach to data transparency and its commitment to enabling advertisers to monitor and optimize their campaigns.Screenshot of a screenshot from the AdNativia platform that showcases the 'Manage Your Ads' section, which provides a user-friendly and efficient management system for advertisers' campaigns. The interface reveals various options for each ad campaign, such as the ability to edit, pause, or even clone an ad, giving advertisers the flexibility to quickly duplicate successful campaigns without starting from scratch. Each ad is listed with an ID, name, pricing model (CPC - Cost Per Click), current status (e.g., Active), and type (Text + Image Ad).Screenshot of a screenshot that displays the 'Create Ad' interface of the AdNativia platform, highlighting the initial step in crafting an advertisement. Here, advertisers can begin the ad creation process by entering essential details such as the ad's name, title, and the click-through URL that leads potential customers to their designated webpage. 

The process's step-by-step progression marked at the top, guides users from ad information to pricing, to ensure a seamless creation experience.Screenshot of a screenshot that presents the 'Traffic Filter' feature within the AdNativia platform, a tool that enables advertisers to curate the flow of traffic towards their ads. With options such as "Whitelist" or "Blacklist," advertisers can specify whether to exclusively allow or block traffic from certain sources. The "Filter By" dropdown menu is set to "Publisher ID," suggesting that advertisers can target or exclude specific publishers from displaying their ads.

Below this, the "ID List" textbox awaits a list of Publisher IDs, separated by commas, which provides a straightforward method for advertisers to fine-tune where their ads will appear. This specificity allows for greater control over the ad spend and enhances the ability to target ads more effectively to the desired audience.

The addition of macro commands offers advanced customization for tracking and optimizing ad performance. Macros like `{CAMPAIGN_ID}`, `{USER_IP}`, `{COUNTRY}`, `{DOMAIN_ID}`, `{DOMAIN_ENC}`, `{PUBLISHER_ID}`, `{PLACEMENT_ID}`, `{CLICK_ID}`, and `{CLICK_COST}` can dynamically insert relevant data points into the ad URLs, allowing for granular tracking of user interaction with the ads. These tools are essential for advertisers who want to analyze data and optimize their campaigns based on user behavior and ad placement performance.Screenshot of The screenshot highlights the 'Budget Settings' section of the AdNativia platform, where advertisers can fine-tune their campaign costs according to the quality of traffic they desire. With options to select from Top Level, Middle, and Low traffic quality, each with corresponding Cost Per Click (CPC) rates, advertisers have the flexibility to allocate their budget efficiently. 

For precise budget management, the platform allows setting different CPC rates for each traffic quality tier—Top Level CPC, Middle Level CPC, and Low Level CPC—with minimum rate thresholds to maintain competitive pricing.
