Categories & Use Cases

Video specialists

Pros

  • You can work on a CPI basis on the network level.
  • Strong in the US. A lot of inventory there.
  • SSP integration very fast and good technical team.

Cons

  • Product development. They have not evolved their product significantly still offering the same videos they had 3 years ago.
  • Slow to respond to product questions.
  • Not enough scale on APAC GEOS.

Return on Investment

  • We have gotten good CPAs, but we have had to bid high CPMs.
  • They were reluctant to do a rebate deal, which is something standard once you hit a certain volume of spend, which worsened ROI.
  • No buy sides fees, which is a big plus for profitability.
