    Criteo
    Well suited--customizable enough to go to market efficiently and quickly. Not well suited--Plug-in multiple demand sources, improved targeting integrations with first-party data.

    Magnite (Rubicon Project)
    If a colleague needed a platform with fast customer service and detailed reporting to sell their mobile inventory then I would recommend Rubicon Project. However, if my colleague needed a platform that gave instant current reporting data then I would be less likely to recommend Rubicon Project to them.

    Support Rating
    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.

    Magnite (Rubicon Project)
    • Rubicon Project has made it easier to optimize so that we could get the fullest ROI on our inventory through their alerts on which deal needs troubleshooting.
    • They also send a daily report which notifies you which advertisers have low render rate which is very helpful when figuring which creatives need to troubleshooting.
