Celtra vs. Smartly.io

Celtra is best suited for rich media, expandable, clickable ad creation. It is valuable in terms of granular reporting as well. However, it is not suitable as a DSP i.e. we really can't make any optimizations through Celtra. It is best used for tracking ads, engagement, and performance metrics especially on mobile devices.

It is the best for visually appealing brands, basically, any hedonic goods to advertise. Best if you have a lot of visuals to represent your business and want to leverage your presence on given platforms. You can easily turn images into videos or have dynamic attributes for your remarketing campaign. As the pricing is not attractive for smaller clients, it is the best to be either a big brand to use the platform on your own or a big agency to use smartly.io features as your competitive advantage.

• I like that Celtra is under a high-quality price and minimum requirement.
• It is highly effective and easy to understand; it has competitive performance and a very intuitive interface.
• The campaigns are phenomenal, and the marketing management is excellent.
• We have access to excellent analytics and data, and we get to see if our campaigns are failing or not.
• As for formats, I can pretty much create whatever I want.

• Pricing is not attractive to smaller agencies. The base minimum was 1k per month, then 2.5k per month and it grew up to 5k per month. It means that agencies will have to choose service of competitors as Smartly.io is not affordable for everyone. It becomes a premium business.

• If the problem involves some product bugs, customer support does not leave it be. They forward the problem to engineers so it would be solved. Once we caught a problem, they fixed it through the weekend. They always keep you in the loop with the current status of the issue. Once a new person jumps in to follow up, the reaction is
• They are all the time super polite and very friendly.
• Replies in under 5 minutes.
• Customer support can jump into your account and make quick fixes if you allow them to.

Celtra gave us a reliable and straightforward way to create a marketing creation plan to capture potential customers.
