TubeMogul (discontinued) vs. Zeta Marketing Platform

Of the DSPs in which I am familiar, TubeMogul's platform is the easiest to obtain premium publisher inventory... something they definitely push on their clients; but it is something they should be bragging about. It consolidates your deals into one easy interface from which you can either conduct an "on demand deal" or do a direct reservation. Their on demand deal is super easy since TubeMogul buys the publishers' inventory beforehand for its clients to then use. All you have to do to get access to this inventory is click a button. So simple

• Good for very basic management of a search program.
• Not good for much else since it is buggy and lacks many features that competitors offer.
• Also may be good for someone who is looking for a low-cost DMS.

Incentivized

• TubeMogul is great at managing publisher relationships. We have global demand and are currently working with several different teams at TubeMogul to monetize the different regions.
• Managing our block list has been effective as well.

Incentivized

• Good customer service.
• They were flexible in allowing us to access backend data.

Incentivized

• Setting up PMP deals needs to be more seamless
• Missing functionality with reporting
• Easier view in platform to see which placements have spent

Incentivized

• Buggy!
• Lacks many features competitors offer (like labeling).
• No clear roadmap for the future with their SEM product.

I am not aware of the reasons to cancel a certain platform, but if we were i'd assume it's because of the missing features, lack of quality inventory and brand safety measures. I assume the contact would be renewed if above-mentioned reasons changed

TubeMogul is comparable to other DSPs. I would say it lacks in simplicity. Too many platforms, TubeMogul included, try to be too technical with many bells and whistles, while some do help campaign optimization, many are unnecessary. We select TubeMogul when we are looking for other sources of inventory that we can scale against using our fist party data.

Poorly. For example, Kenshoo's offering is fast, customizable, works with all publisher platforms, and more. IgnitionOne just doesn't stack up well against the competition and isn't investing in the product like it used to.

Incentivized

• Real time optimizations to campaign. By having access to a dashboard we are able to pivot to stronger performance and pivot away from weaker performance.

Incentivized

• Did push through implementations but was buggy
• Fast UI
