    Considered Both Products

    Chose AppsFlyer
    Both were entirely bad, especially Kochava. Poor CSM support and very little attention given to their clients. We use Firebase for all other in-app analytics and measuring the success rate of any given feature.

    Branch is good but they have limited attribution and integrations with publishers. Also, the dashboard is not as comprehensive and requires a lot of manual work to do analysis. Kochava is much more expensive for the same type of services, hence we prefer AppsFlyer which is the …

    Kochava was bad. A lot of bugs at that time, and it charges for every event triggered. We used Kochava for only around 6 months and we moved to AppsFlyer.

    Chose AppsFlyer
    We actually did an integration with Kochava. Our integration was Server To Server. It did not work out - we never got the right attribution. It was also a challenge to verify a real end-to-end campaign with a mobile network. To be fair, this was done 3-4 years ago, and Kochava …

    AppsFlyer is by far the best one because of ease of use. They have great cost aggregation, are cheap to use, and have strong technical expertise and a good customer success team. Their solution is sophisticated enough, has great reporting views, and is a sound, technically …

    It was priced well with great support so it was a no brainer for us to go with AppsfFyer. Also, Appsflyer was integrated with everyone we wanted to use where the competition was not. This was the major deciding factor and also the price point is very startup-friendly for indie …

    Adjust is the best, followed by AppsFlyer. The rest are a joke and should be ashamed of themselves for putting out products that don't give marketers the insights they need to facilitate growth or identify fraud.

    I personally recommend AppsFlyer over the other tracking software because it's easy to use and we can get all necessary details at one click. And especially the Protect360 feature is the best fraud tracking module that I have ever seen.

    Chose Kochava
    Kochava is good from pricing point of view when you scale up. Both are equal in terms of core features and attribution. However, UI wise AppsFlyer is better.

    Chose Kochava
    Honestly, Kochava is at the bottom of the haystack as an MMP, and we often only use it when it is suggested by our clients. However, if we start to see improvements we will consider using them more often. As of now, it is not competitive with the aforementioned platforms.

    Appsflyer is excellent for running numerous campaigns across many clients and keeping track of real-time performance. Attribution is top-notch and the platform is up to date with the innovations in the area while keeping its effective & trustworthy information. Exporting reports could be a bit more friendly but all in all, a truly great MMP.

    Usability
    AppsFlyer
    The UI can be used by anyone with a little understanding of the business. However, may features are somehow hidden and the UI is a bit confusing for beginners. It's not so easy to know where each feature is. It is also not easy to figure out how certain values are calculated.

    Support Rating
    AppsFlyer
    Overall support is good, fast to respond and helps us with both tool related queries as well as publisher related escalations when it comes to fraud or attribution, as they step in and help justify on our behalf. They have a very small team though in India, it's time for them to scale up the team probably and assign exclusive support folks to large clients.

    AppsFlyer
    Appsflyer is generally a more comprehensive and robust platform offering advanced analytics, detailed attribution, and strong fraud prevention features compared to its competition in the market. Also, Appsflyer is a pretty old and well-known name in the market.

    It is a wonderful option
    with favorable virtues to be applied in the company's marketing process, it
    allows us to obtain information through consultation and analysis, they are attentive
    and friendly when offering their service and support, it also includes
    functions such as a fraud tool for the management of push consent, very useful
    for additional reports in analysis teams, is also competitive because it is
    providing adequate payment alternatives.
