Optimization powered by machine-learning, scalability powered by automation, and customer service powered by awesome people
Pros
- Acquisio does so many things to deserve praise. But where they excel above all others is in customer service. Everyone, and I mean everyone, from Client Service representative to the developers to the CEO, demonstrates that they value the relationship with their customers above all else. And that feels awesome.
- Acquisio is focused on automation, scalability, and systematic performance improvement.
- Acquisio's campaign cloner allows us to set up a campaign once and not only duplicate it from AdWords to Bing but sync the two, as well. This is a huge time saver and obviously also helps us to maintain consistency across the two publishers.
Cons
- Some of the areas of account administration lack search, filter, and sort features. Where those features are missing, locating the desired account can be difficult.
Return on Investment
- From just one of Acquisio's products we see an ROI of 1273%. The more we apply the tools Acquisio offers, the more profitable we become.
- For our clients, Acquisio has helped them reduce their CPC and Cost/Conversion by nearly 50%.

Acquisio for Sexy Reporting and Streamlined Campaigns
Pros
- Our list of campaigns was massive and our team was small, so we found that Acquisio helped us streamline much of the tedious work.
- Another reason (and probably the most important) for picking up Acquisio was for the reporting features: fast, easy, and looks great.
- Another strength for Acquisio is working together with your team and having the queue of changes to go through a single point to avoid massive mistakes.
Cons
- The few times we needed assistance from our Account Manager, it was not good at all. You won't be able to get them on the phone. All problems are addressed via email after long waits for responses. I wouldn't recommend Acquisio for novices.
Return on Investment
- Acquisio is definitely the premium solution to saving time and energy if you're already a seasoned [user] and understand what you're doing already in the campaigns.
