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. Read full review Supermetrics is better because of its ease of use and it mirrors most of the metrics on ad platforms. For some similar reporting platforms, metrics are often called something slightly different or are not able to pull the same data as presented on the ad platform; Supermetrics is the closest you'll get to exact data alignment.
