Adobe Audience Manager vs. MediaMath

If you feel as though your online presence isn't quite hitting where it should, Adobe Audience Manager (AAM) might provide the insights to help you identify the areas in which it is lacking (the gaps). As a result, you can adjust your approach and optimize your customer interactions. With that said, if you currently deploy software for the analysis of customer data, you should consider whether AAM will add value. I would suggest setting some strategic objectives so that you can ensure that AAM will meet your current and future needs.

The pricing model of MediaMath with respect to agencies should be a little different, since you have to consider that agencies have various sets of clients with different needs. Not all agency clients have equal budgets to spend. So the platform fee should not be flat rather there should be a formula with respect to spend level and use for each client at agency level.

At this point, I know there are better options out there for OUR use case. This is not true of everyone, so I don't want to give them a zero because I don't like their tool or value proposition. They are a great tool, for what they do, and have a great group of people running things and providing support.

Overall usability is great, as are most of Adobe's software. Maybe a UI refresh could make it a bit easier to do advanced functions or reporting but, overall, it works very well. This is something you take for granted with Adobe solutions because when you try another vendor you realize how bad it can be.

AAM has good support, but the support is not as available, due to waiting time and queue. The instructions presented are available, but it navigation is not easy between pages. However, instructions are usually direct and straightforward, but any underlying thoughts or questions won’t be easily answered without support from their service.

Overall all DMPs have suffered from the death of 3rd party cookies and data. Regardless the close ties to adobe’s experience platform and the rest of the experience cloud stack have enabled adobe to stay competitive and keep features up; however in the end this product will eventually be an activation mechanism for the AEP Customer Profiles from the real-time CDP platform.

The main DSP I've used beyond TerminalOne MOS is DoubleClick Bid Manager. DBM has stronger 3rd party data from a deterministic standpoint as one can target Google users based on age and gender. Additionally, DBM provides access to YouTube inventory, which is a major plus given it is the primary place users consume video content.
