Terminus ABM Platform vs. TubeMogul (discontinued)

Terminus ABM Platform is well suited for organizations beginning their ABM journey. It is easy to implement and there is a great team to help you do so. Ongoing customer success teams ensure you are taking full advantage of the platform and work to help you develop an ABM strategy that fits your business needs.

Of the DSPs in which I am familiar, TubeMogul's platform is the easiest to obtain premium publisher inventory... something they definitely push on their clients; but it is something they should be bragging about. It consolidates your deals into one easy interface from which you can either conduct an "on demand deal" or do a direct reservation. Their on demand deal is super easy since TubeMogul buys the publishers' inventory beforehand for its clients to then use. All you have to do to get access to this inventory is click a button. So simple

Incentivized

• Serving account targeted ads across a wide range of display ad providers
• Matching account based browsing data to target lists
• Identifying need and interest in particular accounts with intent data
• Identifying anonymous web traffic on our site from target accounts
• Reporting on ABM activity and metrics

Incentivized

• TubeMogul is great at managing publisher relationships. We have global demand and are currently working with several different teams at TubeMogul to monetize the different regions.
• Managing our block list has been effective as well.

• Support times are iffy. We've had slower replies and resolutions to issues since they acquired Sigstr and now support both products.
• Display advertising generally has low ROI, in part due to "banner blindness". If you're not continuously developing engaging creatives, you're going to see very little return with this platform.
• Their UI needs serious work. Some options are locked after you move to the next screen in their campaign wizard (nothing should ever be locked in draft) and unless they've recently changed it, you can't delete dead draft campaigns - just archive them.
• There are a few serious discrepancies in the analytics when it comes to identifying which end companies have people who have viewed your ads (i.e. Microsoft has huge numbers because Azure is their product).

Incentivized

• Setting up PMP deals needs to be more seamless
• Missing functionality with reporting
• Easier view in platform to see which placements have spent

Terminus is a turn-key partner in the B2B Account-Based Marketing space. Their model is flexible and efficient which in turn provides effective results. Their sales staff is great and never tries to up-sell, but rather coach and educate our teams to be better at our jobs. It has been great to collaborate

I am not aware of the reasons to cancel a certain platform, but if we were i'd assume it's because of the missing features, lack of quality inventory and brand safety measures. I assume the contact would be renewed if above-mentioned reasons changed

Drift has banners available in their email tool, furthermore, we are able to mimic a Sigstr banner in HubSpot when we build emails by placing the banner image with a link in the bottom of an email, it's just a more manual process. I can't recommend any other solution over Sigstr, they own what they do and don't try to reach in their product marketing and I respect their product for that.

TubeMogul is comparable to other DSPs. I would say it lacks in simplicity. Too many platforms, TubeMogul included, try to be too technical with many bells and whistles, while some do help campaign optimization, many are unnecessary. We select TubeMogul when we are looking for other sources of inventory that we can scale against using our fist party data.

Incentivized

• Combining chat, advertising experiences & a very tight contact list - we saw a 684% increase in on-site engagement.
• 900% increase in deal size after using chat with our advertising campaigns
• 50% higher attendance for our events when leveraging our intent data for targeting

• Real time optimizations to campaign. By having access to a dashboard we are able to pivot to stronger performance and pivot away from weaker performance.
