- Business Problems Solved
The Verizon Media or Oath DSP, formerly known as One by AOL, is utilized by trading desk users to create programmatic media ads for large companies across multiple markets. This platform has proven to be particularly valuable for the Programmatic Department at PlatformGSK, where my team and I use it to buy programmatically for our clients. The pay-per-click service offered by Oath allows our clients to purchase ads on Yahoo spaces and effectively target potential customers, especially those who primarily use mobile devices. With transparent reporting, accurate targeting, and enhanced brand safety, the platform offers a preferred choice over traditional programmatic ad marketplaces. In addition to its benefits in the client acquisition process, Yahoo Search has played a significant role in helping us attract new clients at a low cost.
Another use case for this product is its ability to assist with audience targeting and display advertising monetization. Oath is employed by our programmatic team to accurately target audiences and effectively monetize display advertising for our media company that operates multiple websites. The predictive audience features in Prospecting and the retargeting procedure have proven valuable in our advertising efforts. Additionally, ADTECH serves as a consolidated platform for managing accounts and streamlining work processes within our organization, providing easy access to materials for everyone. Brightroll has also been used as a video buying vehicle, offering efficient pricing and connecting us with skilled contacts who understand the needs of agencies and clients alike.
While One by AOL was initially implemented to address ad-tech needs and assist with remnant ads, it is now being phased out due to various issues. However, the platform's various features continue to be beneficial in meeting the diverse requirements of advertisers and publishers alike.

An excellent alternative to Google Ads
New client acquisition is only one of several business issues that I'm working on. New clients have come to me at a very low-cost thanks to Yahoo Search, and that's been a huge help. Prospecting can also benefit from predictive audience features. The procedure of retargeting is also basic. Yahoo Gemini allows our company to display advertisements on Yahoo search results, which is essential for gaining new customers and is good for business.
- For any other marketing initiatives, Yahoo! is an excellent supplement.
- Since many individuals see our ads, the return on investment (ROI) is rather good for us.
- It's a simple system to utilize in terms of inventory management, branding, and other aspects of customer support.
- A more user-friendly interface is needed because the current one is difficult to use.
- In comparison to Google Ads, Search Ads see substantially less traffic.
- I found the system to be substantially sluggish than any other platform I had ever utilized.
- We now have more places where our company can be found.
- DSP helps us to contact our target audience more effectively.
- Search, native, and video ads are all part of their advertising mix.

Like being punched in the face every day you go to work? Then ONE by AOL is for you.
The business problem ONE by AOL was meant to address was to fill our ad-tech void to help with remnant ads. It's only being used by our marketing team and will eventually be phased out due to a multitude of problems. Keep reading to find out about our headaches.
TL:DR - Clunky system boosts Advil sales.
TL:DR - Clunky system boosts Advil sales.
- Customer support is great.
- Data sources show lots of customer insights.
- Awful UI.
- Slow system.
- Negative: Time spent where it shouldn't be spent.
- Negative: A marketing team begging to move to a different platform.
Google Ad Manager is like an angel coming into your organization to save you when you've been battered, beaten, and bruised. The entire UI is a wonderful breath of fresh air. It just "works" where ONE doesn't. The costs, the learning curve, the data organization all outweigh EVERY SINGLE feature of ONE by AOL.

Quick & Simple
This is being used by our programmatic team in order to help target for our clients.
- Targeting is positive.
- Easy to work with from a planning perspective.
- Has shown positive performance.
- Viewability is not always the best.
- Can not always stack up against premium partners.
- This hasn't been proved well enough.
I think that each has its own positive qualities. The Oath platform is better for video whereas the TTD is better for targeting and has better levers to pull for geographic constraints.

AdTech: Simple, Streamlined, Fantastic
We use ADTECH to help display our work on several different platforms. It works as a way of consolidating a lot of different material into one format, so that everything is a bit more streamlined. It makes managing all of our accounts a lot easier because everybody in our organization can access the same amount of material. Everyone can be on the same page, everyone knows what everybody else is talking about. It's like having a giant bulletin board for your entire work process. It makes meeting easier because pulling and viewing content is much easier.
- Adtech follows an algorithm that learns as you use it. It helps process data based on you (or your user) to help determine the best experiences for your client. Pretty neat.
- Adtech helps streamline work by consolidating workflow. Everybody can be on the same page because everything is accessible to anybody in the organization (security pending, obviously). It helps because the data is available if you need it – and you don't have to fetch anything for anybody.
- Adtech is best for larger organizations – and the developers who help create the technology understand that. Working with an interface like Adtech is simple, and easy to use. I can't remember what I did before it!
- The algorithm is a little...well, dumb, at first. And at times it can stay dumb. We've had users complain of clicking on a click-bait headline for an article, and getting ads that represent something else entirely (off to the side, of course). This doesn't make our clients happy.
- AdTech can be prone to crash at times – randomly – it's a little unpredictable, you may want to make sure that your database can handle a streamlined workload. Doesn't work well with older tech.
- Customer service at AdTech is okay, but there's always room for improvement. The support is good, but I don't like being put on hold.
- AdTech helps us determine where to steer our audience, and where to project our next campaign.
- AdTech helps us view data based on user likes, clicks, and analyze trends among our audience.
- What I don't like about AdTech is that it can sometimes put some people out of a job, as it streamlines work to the point that some on payroll may be...well, unnecessary.
Maybe Google Analytics? But even that doesn't offer the same amount of services as AdTech – and I think that's because this is what AdTech does, and Google is spread a little thin. I use several different platforms, but I did have a lot of fun working with Adtech. Bottom line is, if you're a social media manager and you're tired of using other programs, give AdTech a shot.
