    Equativ (formerly Smart AdServer)
    Smart AdServer is great for a marketing department, to track stats and clicks of their audience. It's a great way to engage the client without actually engaging them. We use it all the time to monitor where they're going, what they're interested in, and how engaging our posts are. I would say it's probably not a good idea for a smaller organization, as one social media manager could work it all out

    If you can control how data can be used for marketing and knowing who to cater to your content, too, this is super useful. If there's not much, you can do WITH the data you're provided, and it'd be of no use. It's a must if you need to dig deeper into your audience, though.

    Pros
    Equativ (formerly Smart AdServer)
    • It is easy to use, with functionality covering mobile, desktop and even tablet. I'm always on the go, so it's nice to be able to access my server from pretty much anywhere.
    • It has a wonderful intuitive user interface, every facet of this is designed and thought over, so it's easy to navigate around the program.
    • It offers a free trial so there's no real commitment if you just want to try it out, which is nice.

    Cons
    Equativ (formerly Smart AdServer)
    • I would like a more in-depth look at my traffic stats. I can see clicks, where my audience is going, but I'd like maybe some kind of perspective into who my audience is (18-24, adult, etc).
    • Constant updates. It's nice that they're always looking to update program, but the update can kinda get in the way of my work sometimes.
    • I'd prefer it if were a little cheaper – the free trial is nice, but getting my superiors to sign off on the cost (they're a bit old school) is a bit tough sometimes.

    • Even more details
    • Some of the generalizations of data feel vague.

    Honestly, you can use either/or. I'm all about AdServer right now because since Adobe has implemented their cloud service, they've gotten more expensive. Smart AdServer is just one cost, and it's cheaper than Adobe Cloud

    Quantcast's advantage over other tools is that it is 1) free (as is Google Analytics), but that it is a more easy-to-use and basic tool than Google Analytics. Quantcast does not provide the depth of analytics of other tools like Google Analytics or SimilarWeb, but it provides a good starting point for someone looking to venture into web analytics.
