Singular, headquartered in San Francisco, offers their mobile marketing and analytics platform of the same name. The company Singular merged with Apsalar in 2017, and combined technologies to offer a single platform under the Singular brand.
It's great if you have to provide reports (either internally or for clients) on a regular basis. It takes a little time to set up your structure (surely comparable to the time you'd spend in another tool and definitely faster than doing it manually), but then it saves so much time on an ongoing basis. It's also really important when you want your reports to look good -- which is pretty much all the time! No more Word documents here and Excel spreadsheet there with mismatched formatting all over the place. Now you can have one streamlined look, which allows you to view the data more easily and not get tripped up on the report itself. Honestly, I think it's appropriate in pretty much any situation! I guess maybe if you were just pulling one report one time, then it might not be worth the time it takes to set up, but even then it depends -- you still have the benefit of one clear, streamlined look for all your data. And it's less error-prone.
Singular is perfect for companies that have limited BI developer resources. If you work with more than a few media partners, Singular aggregates all pre-install metrics and automatically connects it to your BI data / MMP provider. This use is perfect for executives/directors that want to have a quick snapshot of their marketing spend. Singular also works well for media buyers that want to export Singular report as a base for creating optimization reports.
Simple drag and drop interface. No complex programming or integrations needed.
Custom options for advanced users. The baseline graphs and charts are very helpful, but depending on what point you're trying to get across it's easy to create your own for maximum understanding
Easily accessible. Save time, trees, and money. Every month we simple forward a dashboard link to our clients. No complex reports necessary.
Currently it's missing Amazon Ads integrations, which I have submitted a request for.
There should be options to transfer dashboards to other accounts, as needed. For example, when a client engagement ends, being able to transfer the dashboard to the client account would be cool. I'm sure the capability exists.
Offline-reporting capabilities or sending PDFs through email of the dashboard may be very valuable to people reviewing data that don't currently have internet access.
Singular (formerly Apsaler) team is beneficial and provides a quick resolution to all the issues. Not only the online team, but we have also had multiple interactions with the team face to face in the office. To have a better understanding of the platform, the team has helped us by providing training sessions, which included thru and thru the working of the platform.
Either the reporting was too complex or too basic. I didn't want to spend months and months learning how to integrate new dashboards with all different platforms. Additionally, the other dashboard companies don't allow for enterprise reporting. I have some clients with 50 Google Ads accounts, and you cannot pull all that data into 1 dashboard.
As this is my first job after completing my graduation, therefore I do not have any prior experience of working with corporates and organizations. Hence I have only used Singular (formerly Apsalar).
