Comscore Ad Metrix vs. TrackMaven

ComScore is great for the research portion of media planning. It's robust with data insights on your client's audience and its competitors, and it manages to house everything in an easy to use platform. It helps gain learning and insight into what channels and tactics we should invest in and what partners are out there in the space.

If your brand is looking for understanding competitors and normalizing data across disparate follower counts/footprint size, Trackmaven is great. Users need to understand the power of Boolean logic. TrackMaven needs dedicated users and time spent in building reports in order to understand how to use it.

• Breaks down categories of those who who are more likely to visit our site that come from XYZ backgrounds by percentage.
• Compares our site stats to other competitor statistics.
• Allows us to better target our viewers with specific ads.

Incentivized

• Tagging and filtering features in the real time activity feed
• Customizable email alerts when our content or the content of others go viral.
• Visualizer provides a bar, line or area graph that can easily be exported as a CSV, JPG, PDF or SVG.

• Training would be an area of improvement. I have had to self train in most reports and am not as well versed in the tool as I would like to be.
• No other major issues with the tool as of yet

• For the foreseeable future. TrackMaven is focused on measuring social sharing. We wish it also captured information about pageviews and monthly unique visitors -- the kind of data that lives inside Google Analytics -- or integrated it through an API. It would be exceptionally helpful not just to have all those metrics in one place, but also to easily measure correlations between them.

More than likely, yes. This is a company with people I trust that offer an exceptional product.

The staff is available pretty quickly for questions, but are not really around in-person to meet with me and my team. They are able to solve my problems online and do work sessions as needed via skype.

We use both tools, but Ad Metrix helps significantly for determining industry trends and other more helpful data. We are actually in the process of removing the other tool since Ad Metrix gives us what we need.

I inherited TrackMaven, as it was already being used when I started working here, but I really like it! It's much easier to use and has an incredibly fast learning curve so I feel like I'm using all of the features of the tool right away. The customer support team is very helpful and works hard to make sure that you are really using the product to its full capabilities, rather than just scratching the surface

• I am able to plan quickly and effectively
• Save money on just having one digital tool
• Plan audiences at scale

Incentivized

• Paid Search & Social - TrackMaven has given us the ability to develop smarter social advertising and reach our audience with the right messages
• Account Analytics - the account overview we receive in TrackMaven of our own social media accounts is duplicative of what we already get through other software
• Funnel Analysis - If we can better see which efforts are paying off with leads, at a granular level, we can use our social spend budget more wisely
