    Criteo
    Retail Media by Criteo's support at the start (with ERMS and Hooklogic) was pretty poor, with support SLAs exceeding 72 hours. This has changed over time to having a dedicated team--therefore the 7 rating and not 8.

    Alternatives Considered
    CitrusAd
    We know about Criteo and Crealytics, but we have not evaluated any other solution at this stage. These two are alternatives that we could integrate into our platform to give our clients more flexibility. We started with CitrusAd because they are offering the base capabilities we need now and we had experience with them.
