The OneView Ad Platform (formerly Dataxu, acquired by Roku October 2019) is a solution for marketers and content owners to, according to the vendor, reach more cord cutters and measure performance using the largest TV identity dataset, where advertisers can manage their entire campaigns – including OTT, linear TV, omnichannel, and more – all in one place.
Amazon Marketing Cloud is best for multi-touch attribution, cross-channel performance measurement, and sophisticated audience segmentation. It assists brands in optimizing ad strategies through the analysis of customer journeys. It is less appropriate for real-time optimization because of data latency, small advertisers who lack data skills, and direct audience activation, which needs manual integration.
Dataxu is great for running multiple campaigns at the same time. It's reporting features are great as well as the exchanges it has to offer. For a company just wanting to run one campaign, I don't think it would be worth their time learning how to navigate Dataxu; however, for a company running to run multiple campaigns, Dataxu makes the process easier. Dataxu has great customer service representatives that provide superior training whenever needed.
A customer sees an ad for a smartwatch on Amazon, searches for reviews online, and later purchases it after seeing a remarketing ad. Amazon Marketing Cloud helps analyze and credit each step in this journey.
Analyzing past purchase data, any company in india can segment frequent buyers of organic food products, allowing advertisers to target them with personalized promotions.
The platform's mobile serving capacity is great; spending is always consistent and the impression numbers are some of the highest we've seen. We can always depend on this method of ad serving to get us the results that we and our clients expect.
The intelligence and audience information (found under the Reports tab) is helpful when writing a "story" for the client; it assists us in determining future targeting strategies. Custom Queries are also available under the Reports tab and these are extremely helpful when we need to view specific details about the campaign.
The dashboard's spend-to-date graphic helps us to immediately recognize what campaigns are falling behind so that we may adjust the budgets accordingly.
Flagging problems. For example, if a campaign has been running a week and hasn't spent any of the budgets, there could be a setting enabling it from doing so. When you have multiple campaigns running, it's hard to track this.
I give Amazon Marketing Cloud an 8 for usability. It is incredibly powerful at data insights and analytics, but the use of SQL queries gives non-technical users a steep learning curve. And the 24-48 hour data delay handicaps real-time decision-making. But its advanced attribution analysis and audience segmentation make it a godsend for optimizing ad performance.
At Haberfeld, we had our own customer service representative out of Boston. He provided superior and timely support for all of our questions and needs. He also ran test campaigns to show us what our potential impact could be before we put dollars towards anything. He even came all the way down to Nebraska to visit with us at one point. Whenever we needed something, he was quick to respond and provide appropriate resources and training.
Since I haven't used other marketing analytics software, Amazon Marketing Cloud might seem like the standard. While it provides deep insights, its usability could be improved with simpler dashboards, automation, and real-time data. Comparing it with other tools in the future may help identify areas where it excels or falls short
We work with multiple platforms, not solely DataXu. As of late, AdWords has proven more beneficial to us. AdWords is very user-friendly and they are easy to contact. If we need a question answered, we can simply hop onto a Google Chat and get the responses we need to move forward. DataXu is much harder to get in contact with and their Help Beta tab is not especially informative. If we need to serve impressions, DataXu is certainly the server to utilize
