    We’ve seen a huge engagement boost in our person-based campaigns, compared to traditional ABM campaigns.

    StackAdapt's programmatic buys are great for a quick awareness campaign to reach the most eyeballs. Solid user segmentation from 3rd party sources that is available almost immediately. The platform is less proficient at converting users, though I've never had sufficient volume to test if this works better for enterprise-level clients with more conversion data

    Pros
    Influ2

    • We get to see who is engaging with our content and identify engaged prospects that our sales should go after
    • We had a noticeable drop of CPL under the guidance of Influ2 customer success

    • Audience targeting - there are so many options for both B2C and B2B audiences, from browsing behavior audiences to account-based marketing audiences to CRM lists. There's a way to find your ideal audience no matter their industry.
    • Pixel setup and management are pretty easy. It uses a universal pixel that you can easily place on your site. We use Google Tag Manager for this. Then, you can create any number of conversion events and easily implement them, also with Google Tag Manager, so we can trust we're getting good tracking.
    • It seems many display ad platforms lack optimization tools, but StackAdapt makes it easy to adjust, add, or remove audiences, pause certain website categories, exclude batches of websites, pause individual ads, and really fine-tune the targeting as you see what works and what doesn't.

    StackAdapt
    • There has been occasional slopping maintenance of the campaigns, and we have to follow up with questions about spending spikes or significant changes in delivery CPMs.
    • Account rep knowledge can sometimes be lacking. When we question our reps about performance, we sometimes get confusing or nonsensical answers.
    • The reporting UI is definitely clunky and unintuitive.

    The platform is easy to use and understand whether it is being used as self-serve or a managed service. The audience targeting is solid, and array of placements is versatile. With these, the level of engagement for video content is usually great

    It is very user friendly and if any team members need further help, we are able to easily access their customer service team for hands on assistance with an actual human being, not a robot. Their team has been incredibly kind, understanding and thorough. It is really a great all in one tool for a business who relies greatly on advertising campaigns.

    When talking about specifically ABM INFLU2 ranks on first for me as it is easy to use and setup in accordance with other software. Also the leads generated are quality leads. Each campaign can be personalized and reports of each campaign give a detailed idea of how the campaign has performed.

    StackAdapt is significantly less expensive than The Trade Desk. StackAdapt doesn't have campaign minimums, unlike The Trade Desk, meaning you can experiment with a lower ad spend to gain client confidence before investing at a larger level. Plus they don't lock you into an annual contract or anything long term. It feels very similar to The Trade Desk but without the high contract.

    • We are using Influ2 to generate demand, identify the most engaged contacts from the target audience and pass them to sales. Since we offer a variety of products, Influ2 also lets us identify buyer intent in a particular product and reach out to the prospect with the right value.

    • Excellent traffic from our ads. Traffic exceeded our forecast.
    • Excellent management of our budget. We did not spend near as much as we budgeted for the response we received through our test.
    • The lead conversion was not expected to be high due to the type of content we deployed, but we received zero conversions, well below anticipated when compared to other ads for the same content.
