Magnite vs. TubeMogul (discontinued)

Rubicon Project is super appropriate for Publisher monetization. They excel as a supply side partner. Rubicon Project is less appropriate for Advertising buying tools. Their demand side tools have a way to go for development.

TubeMogul is a great video demand site platform. Transparency is something they do well within the dashboard; you can look for very specific details to see what sites your advertisement is being served on as well as a slew of KPIs to measure your campaign. If you're looking for high quality sites, I would look at another company.

• If possible to update the reporting to have less delay time on the data.

Incentivized

• Not as much inventory so it is harder to scale with Tubemogul than other DSPs.
• The separate placement types are too rigid. Interactive and Standard Preroll should be one product.
• Viewability optimization isn't as strong as Doubleclick.

I am not aware of the reasons to cancel a certain platform, but if we were i'd assume it's because of the missing features, lack of quality inventory and brand safety measures. I assume the contact would be renewed if above-mentioned reasons changed

Between the two platforms for similarly targeted campaigns, I have not seen any real difference in metrics like click through rate and completion rate. When stacking on a viewability threshold, DoubleClick tends to scale a bit better than TubeMogul. While I am a HUGE Google products fan, I have to say TubeMogul's Optimization Goals feature is awesome and something DoubleClick does not have. The ability to prioritize your goals is a huge plus. Coming from an agency, ensuring delivery usually is king. Having the ability to then tack on your viewability, CPM/CPC, completion rate, CTR, CPA, site diversity preference goals is awesome
