    Metadata is well suited when you have a really large ad budget (>50k per month at least). This is because the power of metadata lies in the ability to quickly set up and run a large number of experiments (combinations of channel, audience, creative, and conversion assets). To evaluate these variations, all of them need a large number of impressions, clicks, and conversions to be statistically relevant. If your budget is smaller, you will either have a very small number of experiments (not fully utilizing the power of metadata), or your experiments will not have enough clicks to make informed decisions. We had expected a better explanation of this from metadata before signing up.

    It's a great platform if you're looking for something to run contests that provide leads and drive user engagement, but if they also incorporated social media management and scheduling, Wishpond would be a 10 by far. It's definitely worth looking into specifically for running contests throughout the year, for a wide variety of companies and industries.

    Pros
    Metadata, Inc
    • Best paid ops tool I've ever used (and I've used a lot): we can launch a new LinkedIn & Facebook campaign in minutes.
    • Lead gen ops: no more dealing with broken zapier zaps, we are able to automate pushing native lead gen leads directly to our CRM.
    • Attribution: see influenced & triggered opportunities/CW deals
    • Multivariate testing: Metadata scales audience, ad, creative testing so you learn what performs much faster than manual process

    • Very small learning curve, thanks to wonderful real-time tutorials and help, and drag-and-drop editors.
    • Easy to navigate - there are only 3 main sections of the site (content, lists, and emails).
    • Excellent customer service. I've always gotten prompt answers to any questions I've had.

    Cons
    Metadata, Inc
    • If you don't have a large budget and audience it's hard to meaningfully optimize. If I have 4 ad creatives, to 2 audience groups on FB and LinkedIn, that creates 16 experiments, each of which needs an ample enough budget, say $40/day, that's now $640 per day or $19K per month.
    • Limited ability to edit ads after they've been launched. You usually have to stop the ad, clone it, and launch a new campaign.
    • Can't add new ads to existing campaigns which limits the ability to optimize. If I start an MD campaign with 4 ads, and in a few weeks we see that one is working well and the other 2 are not performing, I can pause those (or it can autopause by rules), but I can't add 2 more new creatives to the mix against the high performer. I'd have to either stop the high performer, and recreate it in a new campaign (losing likes and comments), OR - leave the high performer in the first campaign, and create. a second campaign with the new ones, which will only optimize against each other.
    • Limited to a single conversion event on a landing page. I'm not able to choose either a Demo Request OR a Sign-Up conversion, I can only choose one.
    • Google search ads are doable but aren't necessarily more feature-rich or easy-to use than native, so there's no value added to doing it through Metadata in my opinion aside from unifying ad reporting.

    • They added keywords to campaigns we'd specifically said not to.
    • They should tweak campaigns with a 0.06 ROAS.
    • They should provide the services that are promised.

    Metadata's customer support is a difference-maker! They really do care how well your campaigns perform and will help you improve them.

    There is no support at Wishpond. I contacted my project manager's manager over a week ago without a reply. When I responded to the automated 'How is your experience' email saying how awful it was there was no follow-up. When I had trouble and had to escalate things it resulted in some new procedures being put in place that changed nothing and they never checked in to see if things were fixed.

    We chose [Metadata.io] because it was a smaller company and could get more personalized attention. The price was better and they seemed more eager to support us. The feature set was what we were looking for and not more - it was exactly as robust as we needed it to be. Didn't want to pay for features we weren't going to use.

    We choose Wishpond as our first option since we were a startup e-commerce. Klaviyo was a little bit expensive for us and Wishpond really suits pretty well in our budget. Besides, if you don't have so many clients, at a first glance, there are a lot of features that would not be taken advantage of. That is why Wishpond was a better option when we started.

    Return on Investment
    Metadata, Inc
    • Huge decrease in CPLs, CPMQL and Cost Per Opportunity
    • Big improvement in MQL to SQL rates
    • 90%+ of our leads from paid social now have valid business emails, before it was like 30%
    • Saving us hundreds of hours over the course of the next year doing daily manual optimization and budget management tasks for us so we can focus on strategy and testing new things

    • Negative google ROI.
    • A few conversions in September on paid social then none - negative ROI.
    • Between ad spend and Wishpond fees every month is negative ROI. Can’t wait until I can get out of this contract.
    • Emails don’t perform as well as my own for open rates or clicks.
