AdStage vs. Rakuten Advertising

AdStage is great if you're an agency or an in-house marketer managing a lot of ad budget, a lot of campaigns, or a large number of clients and you want to get the day-to-day tasks cleared to focus on higher-brain-stem tasks. Bid and budget management are replaced by rules. Holiday sales are replaced with flighting. All of your team members can log in, access their accounts, set up their reports and have them send to clients without having to lift a finger.

Great company, clear communications, fast quarterly distributions and a fun way to get paid for shopping that you are already doing. I highly recommend this service. Why would you pass up the opportunity for free money? And the Chrome extension is a wonderful add-on! Great way to remind yourself when you are on a site that Rakuten honors.

AdStage has been great and the only reason we wouldn't renew is if we decided to build this all out internally for API access. But, customer services is great, the product is great and I'd definitely recommend it.

AdStage had great support. They got back to me quickly every time, they always had or found an answer for what I was looking for, they took my feedback well, and they were knowledgeable with the platform and any issues I had. I have worked with a lot of other companies that are slow and AdStage definitely isn't one of them.

AdStage has by far the best UI and custom functionality of any of the platforms we demoed

Rakuten has more features and when it comes to pricing, Rakuten Advertising is really worth its price because of its functionality and also the customer/client support is superb!

• In terms of hours saved, it's hard to pin down, but we definitely spend more time on the meaningful, strategic, or artistic tasks now than we used to.
• AdStage is also a great tool to roll out during the sales process because our clients love to hear that we're making decisions automatically with data and automation rather than just hiring more junior people to push buttons.
• During black Friday this year our team all setup campaigns to flight, meaning they weren't sitting around the turkey with their laptops out. That's an ROI in company culture that's hard to measure, but extremely valuable.

• If a product has a good approval, it will give you more chances to get sales through the system
