## AdStage Reviews
  ### 1. Saves Time but a bit pricey.

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Emily B. | Marketing Assistant, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 04, 2021

**What do you like best about AdStage?**

The reporting tool was amazing as it saved hours of creating reports and emailing them to clients.

**What do you dislike about AdStage?**

The integrations were a bit faulty. I would connect certain platforms (Google Analytics)  and have no data from them despite triple-checking on my end to be sure I had done the process correctly.

**What problems is AdStage solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Reporting and efficiency in doing so. The white-label reports are a great feature and the template variety is extensive considering how new the platform is.

  ### 2. Adstage is great, but not for everything...

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 08, 2018

**What do you like best about AdStage?**

Automation of reports and setting up rules to guide system behaviour. Ability to create custom metrics, which has just been released, is a game-changer.

**What do you dislike about AdStage?**

Still some learnings to be done. Not as fluid as the native solutions, however, developments recently makes for great justification . AdStage focuses on where the money is, namely Facebook and Google, which makes sense, we are however a pure LinkedIn business so the total value was lost to us. It also seemed like the adoption of platform elements to the tool took longer than necessary. Finally, currency conversion proved a big problem for us.

**What problems is AdStage solving and how is that benefiting you?**

1. Scaling of the business, using existing resources and optimising deployment
2. Utilising machine learning to automate some of the more repetitive tasks within LinkedIn 
3. The ability to devest from time-consuming, yet relatively low reward activities

  ### 3. An Expensive Solution Still Working the Kinks Out

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** J.P. V. | Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 30, 2019

**What do you like best about AdStage?**

Being able to create custom metrics for your ad accounts and then base rules or alerts or widgets off those custom metrics is pretty useful. Want to know the combined cost for a Purchase on App or Website? Or maybe what the approximate gross profits for your campaigns are if you have 30% COGS? Boom.

**What do you dislike about AdStage?**

The platform is fairly new so new features are being added and bugs pop up. Maybe your rules will run, and maybe they won't. Maybe they'll switch the authorization token to a different user. Maybe your reports won't run as scheduled.

And if something does go wrong, better hope it's not on a Monday - because the team is slammed with tickets from the weekend and best case you'll hear back at the end of the day. Worst case? Talk tomorrow - hope it wasn't important!

**Recommendations to others considering AdStage:**

Given the price point, strongly evaluate what you're looking for AdStage to do. It's nice to have all the features in one place, but if you only need automation there are less expensive, more robust options out there. Same for Reporting.

**What problems is AdStage solving and how is that benefiting you?**

AdStage was brought on in our agency to solve both client reporting and also account automation. While there were some cases where the benefits of having automation rules helped reduce busy work on the accounts (manual bid/budget changes), mostly it's actually created more work for us in terms of finding bugs, jury-rigging workarounds and trying to force it to be better at each component piece (Reporting, Automation).

  ### 4. Useful Tool

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Deanna S. | Client Success Specialist, Marketing and Advertising, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 28, 2019

**What do you like best about AdStage?**

The variety of reporting widgets across different platforms

**What do you dislike about AdStage?**

AdStage can be a littly clunky - having to add accounts, then make them "turned on", and wait for them to sync before you can setup/create any dashboard.

**Recommendations to others considering AdStage:**

AdStage can be a helpful tool with automation of reporting for clients, as well as, creating rules for marketing campaigns. It is a newer tool that you can see them progressively rolling out updates and features to make it even better.

**What problems is AdStage solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We've used AdStage to share weekly dashboards to our clients as well as, running some automations for marketing campaigns

  ### 5. Good platform with some bugs

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 28, 2019

**What do you like best about AdStage?**

Flexible and easy to use.  The ability to see real-time data in a single dashboard across multiple clients is a huge help to our business.  Support team is very responsive.

**What do you dislike about AdStage?**

Dashboard creation can be an arduous process and if the dashboard is too big it chokes, which is frequently frustrating.

**Recommendations to others considering AdStage:**

It's a good product and affordable, if you're willing to deal with minor hiccups.

**What problems is AdStage solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use AdStage for delivery and performance monitoring across social platforms.  It keeps us up to date at-a-glance without having to toggle UI's and accounts.

  ### 6. It's great if you do lots of reports

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Online Media | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 28, 2019

**What do you like best about AdStage?**

Easy to use, even when I was a beginner using it was easy to navigate

**What do you dislike about AdStage?**

I didn't use it a lot because I didn't need that comprehensive of reports

**What problems is AdStage solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It was great to track social advertising 

  ### 7. Reasonable reporting software -management, not so much

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 15, 2018

**What do you like best about AdStage?**

Easy report building
Clear, easy metrics

**What do you dislike about AdStage?**

Printing too faint on reports
Limited formatting options
No opportunity to add comments or additional verbiage in the report body

**What problems is AdStage solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Solves time consuming reporting grunt work
