Branch vs. Everflow - Partner Marketing Platform

Branch well suited: Branch links are perfecting for embedding into our email service provider (SendGrid), paid media channels (Facebook, Google, ASA), organic media (Instagram, Facebook, content marketing, referral) and push notification platform (OneSignal) to be able to evaluate actions taken from users that clicked on those branch links. No matter the data from these links, they are accurate and are easily exported to our database and CRM to determine ROI, and find weak points in our major funnels.

I would say the area Everflow has been the best for us is in tracking affiliate and internal metrics for our campaigns and our external(brokered) campaigns. A scenario where I think it may not be best suited would be integrating with Shopify through API. I've had multiple times where the integration doesn't go as stated it would and had to troubleshoot. I've also run into issues with reporting being accurate with that integration specifically. (Which could be Shopify's fault as they don't play well with many platforms anyway. So could be their problem, not Everflow's just to clarify).

• Click tracking: it integrated well with Facebook, Google, Clevertap, product, etc. to allow multiple stakeholders to use this one platform for tracking.
• Sale attribution: it has a robust fraud detection and event deduplication in place to attribute sales correctly.
• Smart URL: it offers different deeplinks to support basic user platforms, thus making the URL behavior smart and personalized for users.
• Referrals: it's a ready-made platform to easily launch your refer and earn program, with all checks of fraud detection in place.
• Social sharing: it offers various goats and cards for how a link will appear on various social media channels if shared, which is particularly helpful for marketing teams.

• Multiplayers redirection is important feature. In our marketing process for [our] Ace Tutor app https://www.acetutor.io, we have a referral reward campaign for which we want to aggregate clicks from lower level links to higher level links. For example, we created unique Branch Links for 10 marketing interns, and each intern wanted to create Branch Links for their own 10 delegates, the clicks of the Branch Links from these delegates would be automatically rolled up to the right intern's Branch Link, so we can make payment following the aggregation paths. Currently, Branch Links do not support this kind of multiplayer or multi-layer redirections.

• Publishers cannot see their redirect revenue on their dashboard but the admins can. Which causes a lot of manual updating through communication and explaining to clients/publishers.
• I wish Everflow had a "Cap start date" for offer caps. Cake had that feature and I used it often.

Pretty responsive, but that's kinda expected within the space. TUNE has chats open and available right away.

Branch's links are the most consistent in the mobile space. They work across desktop and mobile, where AppsFlyer and Deeplink's didn't consistently perform in both places. Branch's measurement is more consistent across all customer touch points as well, which gives our marketing and growth teams the answers they need without any struggle.
