AppsFlyer vs. GroundTruth

Appsflyer is excellent for running numerous campaigns across many clients and keeping track of real-time performance. Attribution is top-notch and the platform is up to date with the innovations in the area while keeping its effective & trustworthy information. Exporting reports could be a bit more friendly but all in all, a truly great MMP.

Starting to work with more clients on targeted Advertising and geofencing. The platform is simple to use, guides through the process and has excellent reporting features. GroundTruth can login and setup a campaign which can run the next day itself. Their Excel sheets are very difficult to use and it's impossible to upload bulk locations into this campaign. It can take several business days to setup a 200 point campaign because the mass upload isn't good in my opinion.

AppsFlyer works well with our use cases already, and is working on addressing the gaps (of trackers UI)

Incentivized

The UI can be used by anyone with a little understanding of the business. However, may features are somehow hidden and the UI is a bit confusing for beginners. It's not so easy to know where each feature is. It is also not easy to figure out how certain values are calculated.

Overall support is good, fast to respond and helps us with both tool related queries as well as publisher related escalations when it comes to fraud or attribution, as they step in and help justify on our behalf. They have a very small team though in India, it's time for them to scale up the team probably and assign exclusive support folks to large clients.

Appsflyer is generally a more comprehensive and robust platform offering advanced analytics, detailed attribution, and strong fraud prevention features compared to its competition in the market. Also, Appsflyer is a pretty old and well-known name in the market.
