    AppNexus
    Appnexus is specifically well suited for CTV campaigns. They have the full technology stack to help you scale campaigns in any format, whether you need a lot of volume in traditional formats like banners and interstitials or if you need high-impact formats like video and other alternatives. Appnexus has a very strong set of unique publishers which makes it a great DSP for branding campaigns.

    Terminal1One MOS offers a "DMP lite" that can help advertisers begin to grow their 1st party data without leveraging a separate DMP. As precise targeting becomes increasingly important, advertisers must begin to cultivate audiences that they can then take action on in the future. Additionally, if a client requires intense customer support, TerminalOne MOS is one of the best in the business.

    Pros
    AppNexus
    • As per my experience they have strong support personnel. Solving the issues as and when required.
    • We can solve certain issues like campaign performance, inventory optimization and more with the help of AppNexus wiki. We get all the required information in the Wiki itself.
    • They have given the right platform to both buyers and sellers to workout and meet their digital marketing needs and goals.

    • It helps in managing and optimizing prospecting and re-marketing campaigns extremely efficiently using multiple source of data providers.
    • It is easy to integrate with display servers, data providers, and also other partners which make campaigns really efficient and optimize your CPA goals. MediaMath also provides you training via New Marketing Institue which is very helpful.
    • It also keeps on innovation with respect to partnerships and on boarding tools such as display collision detection tools. It was exciting to see that how easy it is to work closely with accounts team and they have amazing hands on working on these tools.

    Cons
    AppNexus
    • The platform is incredibly complex and requires a great deal of understanding of how the platform works that caught us by surprise.
    • The wiki is not enough and when we resorted to reaching out to AppNexus it was a nuisance of having several emails going back and forth.
    • No phone support is offered which would have made several things easier than exchanging confusing emails.
    • Video inventory is still not implemented.

    • Although easier than other DSPs, MediaMath's tagging process could be more streamlined
    • The reporting section could be more sophisticated/thorough - there are little to no visualizations currently
    • Platform itself looks a little outdated

    I love almost everything about AppNexus because I feel like the user data is easy to track because of the identifiers, you can see which adverts got clicked and which were ignored. We can track the location of the ad on the page fold and this makes it so much easier for future campaigns. The only thing I don't like is that the data is only kept for a year, and I'd like it for a longer period of time

    At this point, I know there are better options out there for OUR use case. This is not true of everyone, so I don't want to give them a zero because I don't like their tool or value proposition. They are a great tool, for what they do, and have a great group of people running things and providing support.

    Because I think the interface is kind of confusing at the beginning and it confuses you a lot.

    AppNexus
    Because the support team does give you support, they take 24hrs to get back to you but once they open a ticket they focus on resolving the issue for you. My only problem is that you don't have a specific account representative assigned to you.

    Alternatives Considered
    AppNexus
    The TTD platform seems to have better CTV/OLV inventory, so that is typically preferred over AppNexus (APN). Usually, if clients have an internal desk, they will use TTD, which can often lead to us bidding against them, which is also another benefit of running campaigns within AppNexus (APN). Google DSP is typically used to increase the scale for display and build larger re-messaging pools.

    Return on Investment
    AppNexus
    • The 1 USD audit fee makes it very hard to A/B test creatives and improve performance, hurting ROI.
    • We have been able to reach some users that we weren't able to get before, increasing spending, which is good for ROI.
    • We can run campaigns on TV, which is a big boost for the business, and very ROI positive.
