    Comscore
    Comscore is one of the leaders in the space when it comes to cross-channel planning/reporting tools. They are priced less premium compared to other providers who have the same capabilities. I like how there is a single identifier for users where we can measure holistically across different media channels for publishers

    Any publisher looking to monetize their blogs would be a great fit. The size of the publisher probably doesn't matter. They have a wide selection of advertisers and publishers can sign up for free. Advertisers that are looking for great partners for their affiliate programs would be good fits. One of the benefits is that Impact really focuses on recruiting high-quality publishers.

    Pros
    Comscore
    • Allows users to measure a total audience views across multiple platforms, and take those platform-specific views and convert them into a single, translatable metric.
    • The platform presents the data so that a user is not only looking and inferring action or viewership across multiple platforms but through a single identifier that clarifies or makes sense of that cross-channel data.
    • Allows you to slice up a single campaign and surmise how it will perform across various subsets of media.

    Impact
    • User interface could be improved a little, as it is a quite difficult task to find the content or links
    • Approval from the advertisers sometimes takes a huge amount of time. If they can somehow reduce the response time, it will be great
    • New affiliates might find the onboarding process a little difficult

    Impact has had a major impact on our business. It is pretty easy to use if you don't have multiple accounts with them, so be sure you keep things streamlined. Otherwise, it can be confusing if you have to bounce between different accounts you've applied to. While they are managed under a single login, they can be difficult to distinguish between when trying to see how successful your campaigns are.

    We've been reaching out requesting support for two months and no one has responded. They completely ghosted us. We've emailed the original sales rep, our account manager, our sales rep and account manager's bosses, and others. Still no response, though I can see the emails have been opened multiple times. I've never experienced worse support.

    Alternatives Considered
    Comscore
    comScore Xmedia is by far the most granular and local offering. Google Analytics is a solid supplemental to the real campaign data you glean from comScore and SimilarWeb presents a nice high-level picture of the total viewership from a recurring or historical perspective.
