  • Easy to obtain information quickly on the dashboard.
  • Easy to get your links and they are already appended.
  • We don’t believe that the freight tool, Project 360, captures or flags accurately, and in some cases, marks fraudulent activity where it is not appropriate.
  • The exporting of reports can be more streamlined and user-friendly.
  • It would be good if you can customize your homepage or overview layout more.

  • Appsflyer does deep linking well. It was reliable and works better than any past partner we've used. We no longer invest time and resources in fielding internal flags about broken links.
  • Appsflyer does particularly well at telling the story on industry landscape, identifying areas of opportunity for our brand to grow based on the depth and breadth of their experience in mobile.
  • The Appsflyer team offers best in class customer service. The account managers are knowledgeable, responsive, bright, invested and a pleasure to work with.
  • The AppsFlyer dashboard is rather basic and requires a lot of elbow grease to get to a productive output. It can, of course, be customized precisely to your needs, but at an incremental cost.

  • Access to all the data in multiple ways (API, Datalocker, web)
  • Visualization of results isn't super clear.
  • Cost integrations are sometimes not as granular as I want.

  • Data export. Cohort data is available.
  • Dashboard view that is very easy to use.
  • Cost attribution to each partner.
  • The time it takes to download reports, a lot of the time if the file is too big, it then won't produce the reports.
  • Price. I heard a lot of mobile app clients has to pay very high price to use Appsflyer as their attribution.
  • Customer service. It takes a while to hear from them. I believe Customer service is based in Israel.

  • They allow for any event to be attributed within specific ranges.
  • They have an excellent fraud protection suite in Protect 360.
  • They account for cohorted data pretty well.
  • Protect360 should come included, instead of as an added fee.
  • Visually seeing cohorted data should be as easy as Adjust's.

  • Protect360 is a very good and easy to use product. It saves us money, contributes to making our data cleaner. Hence, we make better marketing decisions and it is easy to export and share a report with our partners.
  • I used many MMPs in the past, but as far as I know, AppsFlyer is the one with the least issues.
  • AppsFlyer is more user friendly, therefore the UX is better on AppsFlyer than the other MMPs.
  • AppsFlyer doesn't pass costs on CPE campaigns and it is not possible to inject the costs in at the site ID level.

  • Fraud protection tool is really helpful in doing source analysis and this has helped filter our top funnel well. We were able to remove all irrelevant sources from our targeting.
  • Attribution is well built and the deepest level of integration helps get the data segmented in an oriented manner. Raw reports are great to study.
  • OneLink has been a great tool that we have used to improve our promotions and retebtion.
  • Cohorts could be more detailed and insightful with more layers that can be added.
  • Fetching the reports sometimes takes much longer than expected.
  • A more customized front dashboard would make the product shine brighter.
