Smart AdServer is great for a marketing department, to track stats and clicks of their audience. It's a great way to engage the client without actually engaging them. We use it all the time to monitor where they're going, what they're interested in, and how engaging our posts are. I would say it's probably not a good idea for a smaller organization, as one social media manager could work it all out

I really love working with the team. If you are looking to get more targeted in your advertising approach, leverage intent data & have your sales team utilize this data for a more personalized experience - that is the best-case scenario. You do need to invest quite a bit into your advertising to be able to gather data & see [the] influence, so if your AOV would be impacted drastically by this cost, I would not recommend using the advertising experiences and chat experiences until you can invest more.

Pros
  • It is easy to use, with functionality covering mobile, desktop and even tablet. I'm always on the go, so it's nice to be able to access my server from pretty much anywhere.
  • It has a wonderful intuitive user interface, every facet of this is designed and thought over, so it's easy to navigate around the program.
  • It offers a free trial so there's no real commitment if you just want to try it out, which is nice.

  • Event Announcements. We use Sigstr to promote hosted and co-hosted events. Email recipients can click on the Sigstr to register for the event itself. By promoting events through Sigstr we have been able to increase event registration and attendance.
  • Content Sharing. New blog post, webinar, presentation, infographic... you name it, you can use Sigstr to promote it. Furthermore, you can personalize the content to target different audiences based of the sender group. Example: customer content Sigstr belongs to support, while marketing new business content belongs to sales.
  • Announcements. Product enhancements, Company news etc. You can use Sigstr to promote general announcements relevant to the audience.

Cons
  • I would like a more in-depth look at my traffic stats. I can see clicks, where my audience is going, but I'd like maybe some kind of perspective into who my audience is (18-24, adult, etc).
  • Constant updates. It's nice that they're always looking to update program, but the update can kinda get in the way of my work sometimes.
  • I'd prefer it if were a little cheaper – the free trial is nice, but getting my superiors to sign off on the cost (they're a bit old school) is a bit tough sometimes.

  • They recently purchased some new solutions that are being integrated into the platform so once that is completed it will be a much more robust solution.
  • I think updating what is considered high value vs brand awareness on the spike report could be a little more seamless.
  • For Salesforce integration, Terminus information unfortunately doesn't pull in historically, it just shows what has happened since the integration started. I think it's unfortunate because that historical data tells us a lot.

Terminus is a turn-key partner in the B2B Account-Based Marketing space. Their model is flexible and efficient which in turn provides effective results. Their sales staff is great and never tries to up-sell, but rather coach and educate our teams to be better at our jobs. It has been great to collaborate

Honestly, you can use either/or. I'm all about AdServer right now because since Adobe has implemented their cloud service, they've gotten more expensive. Smart AdServer is just one cost, and it's cheaper than Adobe Cloud

It's a great all-around platform. With each of these ABM vendors, you have to pay for all the bells and whistles they offer. Terminus ABM Platform "base" packages include everything you need to get started and you can add on bits and pieces like chat, email or personalization as your organization continues to mature through their ABM journey.

  • It's helped my organization get a better perspective on our clientele - where they're going, what they're interested in, it's been a great asset to our business.

  • It's EXTREMELY hard to assess total ROI with display advertising unless you're getting clicks on your ads. Even then you probably want additional tracking metrics such as Google Analytics, form fills, etc.
  • Our sales guys like the engagement spike reports, which can be useful for prompting them to reach out to their contacts.
