    This solution helped us when we were stuck trying to explore data deeper and didn’t have enough resources to prepare data for further analysis. The software solves data integrity problems bringing more granularity to all insights. Integration with data visualization tools and well-arranged insights shows how each of the company’s marketing channels performs in real-time. Improvado is also useful for risk mitigation when launching or adjusting marketing strategies. It may also become a valuable tool for businesses, who are aiming at automation and the elimination of routine processes. ETL processes automation unleashes marketing analysts’ potential granting them more time for research of marketing reports.

    Pros
    Improvado
    • ETL processes. Once adjusted, Improvado never fails to streamline data from our advertisement platforms to the data warehouse.
    • Variety of data sources. Improvado extracts data from over 200 sources, including both well-established platforms and the ones that are rapidly gaining momentum.
    • Full-cycle support. Improvado provided us with a dedicated manager available 24/7. Any issues that arose during the product integration were settled in a matter of minutes.
    • Flexibility and client-focused approach. After the integration, we adjusted our marketing campaign and needed new ad platforms to be integrated. The vendor allocated the development team ASAP to add new connectors to our existing network.
    • Professional services package. The company doesn't provide dashboard views by default. However, we had no time to figure out how to do it ourselves, so we hired a team of Improvado's analysts that set everything up for us.

    • Create and manage a detailed plan for a marketing campaign: when you create detailed project plans and then task and role levels, SAS Marketing Operations Management (SAS MOM) makes it easier to coordinate between projects with very little, if any, issues.
    • Share, reuse and leverage existing marketing assets: Like some marketing tools, SAS MOM allows you to create and reuse assets across various channels.
    • Manage project collaboration and execution: You are allowed to set up a workflow that helps move processes along without having to manage each step of the project.

    Cons
    Improvado
    • Improvado didn’t have all the integrations that we needed. However, they offered full coverage and quickly found ways to extract data from the sources we required.
    • The user interface for BI tools may be confusing to inexperienced users. Personally, I didn't have any problems. However, some of the junior marketing specialists from my department needed more time to adapt to the UI. Otherwise, the interface is great.

    • It would be good to have a Storyboard feature to summarize and tie together some of the dashboard metrics.
    • Missing feature: Hubspot CRM integration.

    Alternatives Considered
    Improvado
    We chose Improvado for the following reasons:
    • Their data transformation framework cleans, normalizes and prepares data for loading into our data visualization tool;
    • We connected our CRM to our analytics tool and as ad account;
    • Extensive social media reports - the marketing team can view our ads, posts, comments right from the dashboard.
    • Scheduled reports and immediate data sync options help us to get the reports with the most accurate data at the time we need them;
    • Google Ads auto-connect new ad accounts.
    Our marketing team evaluated Funnel.io and has opted for Improvado because of the following drawbacks:
    • With Funnel we’d have to set up an extraction process for each campaign and account manually;
    • The more accounts you need to connect or integrations to use, the more you’ll pay;
    • Limited data storage options;
    • Complicated account export. We had to filter accounts to export through the custom filter rules.
