Less well suited for scenarios involving simultaneous collaboration on analysis. This product is not the best for collaboration and is better suited for individual work and individual forms of analysis.
Read full review After extensive research of DSP and DMP platforms in the market, our agency made the wise decision to license TTD's platform and develop a long-term partnership. TTD continues to innovate and offer cutting-edge media buying solutions, access to more audience data segments, and access to new and emerging media channels like CTV/OTT and digital-out-of-home. We couldn't be happier with TTD's technology and is one of the most advanced agency users of TTD is a key differentiator for our agency.
Read full review Pros I just like the manner it handles the analytical rationalization of giving a standing and updates of the inner and outside beliefs of Marketing analysis. It facilitates me apprehend clients' desires and offers advice on a way to fulfill their desires. When I am making plans and instinctually recognise what purchasers are going to purchase, I depend upon their real-time records to validate my assumptions and tell our media buys. Automatic rewards with the media Connections. The availability of records and the alternatives to make our customer's picks understandable.

Read full review Reporting platform leaves a lot to be desired. Requires a lot of trial/error to pull exactly what you need to drive optimizations/learnings. The "stop"/"continue bidding" feature for sitelists, devices, player sizes, etc is awful. When you set something up specifically, you should not have the AUTOMATIC option to serve beyond those parameters. Trafficking video (VAST/VPAID) tags requires a manual insertion of a click URL. Completely redundant ask and is not provided by advertisers as that URL lives within the ad tag. Should not require multiple actions traffic a video tag. Creative approval process (manual) doesn't seem necessary and is not a part of peers' platforms. There is no "pause/deactivate" feature for creative, you remove them or adjust the end date.

Read full review Usability Very easy to utilize. Features are basic. Again just not too much in the way of involved customization
Read full review It's very intuitive. We had some training materials, but found that users were able to navigate through the software without needing many resources. Our only suggestion would be to add hover-over capability in the browser, so users can see a pop-up message further explaining what each button does.

Read full review We noted no issues with our limited interaction with support. The software operated just as expected and we found that we were able to navigate needs on our own. We understand that The Trade Desk offers excellent support, so we believe it will be a good resource to us in the future.

Read full review The Trade Desk is a much better product than
AppNexus . Even though both products showed promise awhile back,
AppNexus stopped innovating and The Trade Desk became specialists on data, cross site tracking and CTV inventory thus having a better and more unique product that actually adds value to your advertising efforts.
Read full review Return on Investment We are using it for analytics, statistics control, and for a single pane of glass and reviews for our senior leadership.

Read full review The good thing about having an agency account is The Trade Desk lets you add your markups to the client billing. We had a very positive response from clients regarding their perceived ROI on their ad spend through The Trade Desk. We did not have many national clients, mostly local dealerships, so it was difficult for them to allocate a lot of funds to display advertising, even though the ROI yield was acceptable.
