    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

    I really love the platform of Reddit on which it is based, as it provides me the actual taste that our target audience seek and with Reddit for Business, it allows to get exactly the same. We can easily analyze the current trends and see which tags or comversations that are happening in the community, so we can follow the same and be the part of the flowing river. We also have had good experience regarding the ads campaigns we made using the Reddit for Business, we certainly been targetting the actual users, which makes our brand more relevant and gets skipped way less.

    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.

    For usability, there is no way we can deduct any points. We have been using it for a month now, and I am using it every day to analyse the audience and trends. This helps me put the creativity and my time in the right direction instead of wasting on the other aspects that Reddit for Business covers. This have helped me significantly to generate more tractions for the brand and helped us gain significant audience. In last 6 months, we quadruple in our views and double in the followers.

    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

    So although we use both platforms together, but we rely upon the Reddit for Business way more due to the fact of the platform (Reddit) it gathers the info from. So it helps our brand to position in the market better and accurately.

    • I have noticed that using Reddit for Business, we can loop into the trends way faster than we used to do.
