I used Criteo for Retargeting advertising, utilising audience matching. In terms of formats, I used all available static assets as well as dynamic carrousel with a product feed.<br>The only issue for us was the low matching rates of audiences in the Criteo network.

I've had experience using Marketing Solutions by Criteo for re-targeting in my previous company, so had the opportunity to utilise again when I moved to my new company. When we first started our audience was still small so we could not re-target but after a while we were able to grow our numbers and retarget. We have worked with both regional scale and local scale account managers, and have run the ad through an ad agency and on our own.

Marketing Solutions by Criteo is one of our main partners for retargeting campaigns being responsible for dynamic retargeting. This type of campaign is important to move users through our conversion funnel, after they visited our website, viewed a product or added an item to the cart and haven't yet purchased by showing users items they have interacted with or similar ones.

Marketing Solutions by Criteo was a great resource for re-engaging with customers no matter when and where they visited us and whether or not they converted. Our partnership with Criteo and the retargeting solution has allowed us to boost campaign performance and lead conversion. The success of our company and all the employees relies heavily on sales.

Marketing Solutions by Criteo is used by my organization, mainly by the AdOps and Media Solutions teams. It is an extremely useful tool for display retargeting campaigns to ensure we are hitting the right consumers based on their shopping and behavioral habits for clients who are looking to base their campaigns on CPC (cost-per-click).

We use Marketing Solutions by Criteo as a programmatic partner that gives us the ability to have granular targeting and provide our visitors with precise advertising. We believe it allows for a better experience for our readers on our website when they see more tailored ad messaging. It has been a super simple platform to use and to navigate.

We moved away from AdRoll thinking we could get even better results! Very bad decision, big waste of time and money. Even though they service seemed easier to use and this company has a certain reputation the experience was a disaster! We are quickly going back to AdRoll! Also the account manager at AdRoll was much better than the Criteo person. Only thing better in Criteo they take care of the design of your banners, but it wasn't good enough to bring results...

Criteo Dynamic Retargeting is used by the Digital department of our agency to drastically increase ROI of our clients' e-commerce media plans. The ability to dynamically serve ads to users who have viewed specific products on the website has increased conversion rate and boosted overall sales by more than enough to keep the tactic on the media plan.

We are using Criteo for dynamic retargeting for one of our e-commerce clients. Criteo helped us in targeting various website including Facebook in terms of showing the product ads. The ROI from retargeting ads is minimal and it's helping us to use our marketing budget more efficiently. We get notifications from Criteo when to increase or decrease the bid to use our Criteo budget effectively. I would rather say with minimal effort it gives maximum ROI.

We are an advertising agency, and use it for one client specifically. The solution is isolated to one department, as well. Criteo is our dynamic remarketing solution and we use it to drive product sales based on our product feed.

We use Criteo to promote our items, but there is only one department which uses it; the department is called "Webshop," with around about 5 employees. We use it to strengthen sales and promote the reputation of our company. Even items of the current season or sale-items could be pushed with Criteo.

Criteo Dynamic Retargeting is being used to remind customers of their recently seen items. It addresses the problem of customers forgetting about our items. It helps a lot to get recognized and be remembered. As a user, I find the ads to be a bit overbearing, but as a graphic designer, I do know how important that can be.

Currently we are using Criteo in marketing for our advertising campaigns for our masters, courses and careers. The business problems we have detected is the adaptability of the images to the different spaces, in addition to the little personalization of the tool.
