Lotame is a great tool for finding deeper insights about your audience and finding ways to expand your reach. I would recommend it for anyone looking to take the next step in their media strategy to begin using third-party data more effectively. The team at Lotame is also extremely helpful and engaged.
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.
Ease of use - Set up was straightforward; Exporting Data to our ad server, DSP, Twitter, etc., is one click; building audiences using is fast and there is a huge amount of resources I can put towards audience building.
Customer Service is out of this world, Lotame worked with us to find a program that would train us up, help us out and make us feel confident in our ability to use the platform. And if we have a question or problem, we've found that support is quick to respond and amazingly helpful.
We have a seat with Lotame's DSP - Lotame is helping us train up on that platform as well.
You can't see the results of your campaigns in the same day, you need to wait until next day to see impressions and clicks and general results of your campaigns.
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.
We had a list of more than 9 different DMP solutions which we evaluated on different criterias relevant for our business, such as Business Alignement & Pricing, Segment Sharing / Data Selling, 1st Party Data Collection & Storage, 3rd Party Data Integration, Reports / Exports / Forecasting, Customer Service and Roadmap, Audience Building, Additional Features (e.g. Prediction), Data Security, Multi-Plattform Links (SSPs and DSPs, also new channels like Radio...). Based on a scoring table we found Lotame as the best fit to our requirements.
The main DSP I've used beyond TerminalOne MOS is DoubleClickBid 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.
