    It works well if you have a small budget that you want to fully control. If you don't have to know where your ads actually ran, this will work.

    I've use Sizmek as media analytics and reporting tool. Unless a site doesn't work properly with Google DoubleClick, I rarely recommend Sizmek over DoubleClick. It can do everything DoubleClick does, but with almost twice the hassle. One Area that makes it easier to track is that ads are given individual tracking ID's that creative can look up and search by when indexing and testing to make sure all ads are working and input.

    • Sizmek's trading desk was a total miss when I tested it a few years ago.
    • I briefly used Abakus and did not find it intuitive, accurate or helpful. It has a long way to go before it can compete with the likes of VisualIQ.

    We use them for some campaigns, but no longer use them exclusively. They also charge a monthly platform fee of $99. We spent 100K a month with them.

    For me the main point here is the support, all the adservers offer more or less the same functionality and capabilities. The real advantage you will gain using Sizmek will be their customer support team and their open approach with other vendors.
