TubeMogul (discontinued) vs. Yahoo DSP

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.

Customer demographics that are not typical of ours are being served by our marketing efforts. We've seen fast expansion as a result of the exposure Yahoo has given us. Because of the low cost per click, users can see results right away. The more traffic there is, the better.

Incentivized

• Customer Service. Extremely responsive and easy to work with.
• Media formats. Provides a number of different media buying options other than standard preroll.

Incentivized

• Predictive Modeling - always performs well for Conversion & CPA based campaigns; out-performed other DSPs with similar tools.
• Email Receipt Retargeting - no other DSP offers the ability to do this, so it is 100% proprietary, as far as I know.

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.

Incentivized

• Site List Transparency - we weren't too thrilled that our site list was only partial
• Performance was less than desired - our client wanted to see better click through rates and video completion rates

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

All are advertising tools, insights, reports, advertising, analysis, which help in our daily lives for the implementation of customer campaigns, each one offers different options, without them, the company would not really survive because our focus is on programmatic media and performance. We show exponential growth because they all combine to provide us with a wide range of options that cover the needs of advertisers.

• Positive impact on monetization of US and Australian inventory.
• TubeMogul has given us more access to PMP and automated guaranteed deal opportunities.

• AdTech helps us determine where to steer our audience, and where to project our next campaign.
• AdTech helps us view data based on user likes, clicks, and analyze trends among our audience.
• What I don't like about AdTech is that it can sometimes put some people out of a job, as it streamlines work to the point that some on payroll may be...well, unnecessary.
