Only for big spenders.
We use Metadata to manage our lead gen campaigns on Facebook and LinkedIn. We define the budgets here, manage ad creatives, manage audiences and run experiments across these channels. We also have an integration with Bombora to target audiences that have shown intent across defined topics. We have used their onboarding and campaign advice on a bi-weekly basis before running things on our own.
- Insights in one place.
- Providing ROI data by connecting to our Salesforce org.
- Single UI to manage campaigns.
- Content on ad creative best practices.
- Bombora integration was not automated (at the time).
- Does not support all creative types.
We use Metadata to help support paid ad campaigns on LinkedIn and Facebook. The Metadata team provided support for campaign set up, budget allocation, and testing to help optimize ad performance. Metadata was brought on to help augment a small team.
- Data visualization
- Running lots of ad variations and tests at once
- Consolidating account management and ad execution on multiple platforms in one interface.
- It was difficult to set goals on the individual campaign level vs. all ad campaigns
- It seems like the automation in-platform is better than what Metadata provides so you can have better results running ads natively.
- They have some work to do to improve the user experience for running experiments because it is one of their best features but it's hard to use.

Take your ad strategy to the next level
Metadata makes it easy for small teams to do more. Skip the traditional route and bring all of your ads to one place. It helps you improve your audiences, targeting, and retargeting, and eliminate the stress of advertiser UI. It brings all of your reports to a central hub giving an un-siloed view of your ad landscape.
- Audience Matching
- Customer Support/Technical Support
- Reports
- Attribution views
- Audience views
- Multiple Goals
Metadata helps us with creating audiences, targeting them with ads, and enriching those conversions in our MA software. It can be used for target social, search, and display advertising and also helps optimize spend based on which ads and channels are performing best - whether you want to optimize to pipeline, MQLs, SQLs or whatever.
- Optimized and highly target social advertising
- Lead enrichment
- ROI tracking
- User experience could be a little bit better
- Sometimes things don't work quite the way you want them to
- If you're new to the platform, its easy to get lost in the system and not know what to do

Review for Metadata.
Although I don't have much recent experience with the tool, We have a very large Techstack and Metadata is certainly one of the tops in terms of customer success and support. They are extremely responsive to any needs that have come up in the past. The interface is also very simple to use and navigate.
- Audience creation functionality.
- Top-tier support.
- Pricing is competitive and affordable.
- The bidding section is confusing.
- Creating and organizing campaigns is not as easy as other software.
- I wish I could build more complex logic into audience segmentation (like you can in Marketo).

Unlimited campaign experimentation without the hassle
We started using Metadata.io to test Linkedin-level targeting on other platforms like Facebook, where we saw good engagement due to the relevant targeting. It's also great that we can easily launch campaigns on multiple platforms with a few clicks, and that we are able to see the aggregated performance of different audiences and ads in one place - not having to manually download reports from different ad managers. Our customer success team was eager to help to set up the system and educate us along the way.
- Intuitive UI
- Report on audiences and ads
- Easy campaign setup on multiple ad platforms
- Editing the currently running campaigns instead of having to create a new one to change small things
- Quicker rollout of new platforms and Hubspot integration

Great job at b2b custom audiences.
We use Metadata.io to manage all of our Facebook and LinkedIn ads, as well as Google search ads. There are two primary reasons we use Metadata.io. Their ability to upload business emails and match them to a Facebook audience is a game changer that greatly extends our reach. It is also great for allocating and optimizing budgets across Facebook and Linkedin to higher performers.
- Facebook audience creation using work emails.
- Cross-channel budget optimization (automatically).
- Uniform reporting.
- 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.

Nice features but could do a lot of things better
We use metadata to build targeted lists of people for Facebook and Linkedin advertising as well as easy campaign launching and management the lists are great and very helpful, that is the main reason we use the platform. The marketing automation is nice to have but I don't care for it. Metadata has reporting functionality but we do not use that feature very much.
- Building Lists
- Campaign Management
- Reporting
- Automation
- Software bugs
- Customer Success Process

Likely Very Good For Some, But Not A Great Fit For Us
Our marketing team utilized Metadata.io to consolidate all of our paid ad campaigns within a single UI, allowing us to deploy campaigns across Google, Facebook and LinkedIn simply. Metadata hosted all of our ad copy, creative, and landing page experiences in a central location, while also providing us with access to additional audience-building tools separate from the traditional ad platforms.
- Ad Management
- Audience Building
- Customer Support
- Ease of Use / User Interface
- Campaign Management
- Ad Spend / Budget Management

Metadata.io has been great for us!
Metadata.io has been a great tool to focus on advertising spend on the channels it's most productive. Rather than split up budgets by channel, we now split them up by assets and judge performance based on closed won in Salesforce rather than just the conversion in the platform. This is extremely valuable in evaluating ROI not only per channel but by advertising type, which allows us to focus more on what works and less on what doesn't.
- Full Funnel ROI
- Experiment to find best results
- Customer Support
- More advanced settings from the Ad platforms to metadata.io would be nice
- More intuitive dashboards
- Ability to re-use campaigns without having to duplicate and copy.
Metadata.io lets us see full cycle lead-to-opp revenue reporting so we can understand how Marketing generates money for the business and get away from top of funnel vanity metrics like number of clicks and landing page conversions. Metadata.io provides a B2B targeting layer on top of social networks (Facebook & LinkedIn) that helps us serve ads to the right audiences.
- Paid Advertising Revenue Reporting
- B2B Audiences for Traditionally B2C Advertising Platforms
- Automated Budget and Spend Optimization
- Cleaner campaign build structure in native platforms
- Edit campaigns in platform rather than relaunch

The B2B Marketing Tool We Always Wanted for Paid Social Media
Metadata really help us with getting valid business email addresses and contact info for leads so sales can have successful outreach, attributing MQLs and pipeline to specific ads, making launching new paid social campaigns and building audiences so much faster, and quickly giving us actionable reporting on our campaigns. For a small team like ours, this tool has allowed us to spend much less time managing budget and optimizing ads and given us more time to focus on testing new content, ads, and audiences. We manage all of our Facebook and LinkedIn campaigns through this platform.
- The onboarding process, live training, and support we get from our customer success team are second to none!
- Metadata has greatly helped us to hone in on our very niche B2B audience with new audience types not available natively in LinkedIn and Facebook.
- Thanks to Metadata, we can now attribute MQLs and, more importantly, sales pipeline to specific ads which makes optimization so much more efficient and also helps us create more banners and ad copy like our top-performing content.
- We've improved our lead quality significantly now that we are getting business emails for the majority of leads (something that seemed impossible previously) and thanks to Metadata's lead enhancement, we're now providing our sales teams with more information about each lead and their company so they can have more productive outreach.
- Nothing major to mention here, every month there are new enhancements. The software is easy to use (if you do the training and onboarding correctly). In only a few months we've seen the product evolve greatly and provide many new features that we asked for.

Metadata is a good alternative when you don't have internal resources for ABM Management
We used [Metadata.io] to help us do microtargeting of our ABM campaigns on Facebook and LinkedIn. [Metadata.io] account managers handled the day to day management of our campaigns and we had weekly meetings to update the status and brainstorm about new campaigns and ways to optimize the activities we were doing.
- Understood ABM concepts
- Interaction with the company's management was easy
- Reports were sent regularly and I knew where we stood
- Dashboard was hard to utilize, they needed to walk us through it
- Knowledge of LinkedIn nuances were less than expected
- First 6 month intro pricing was affordable but then prices spiked
