The free price tag is always a very inviting factor when choosing a ad network, however, free comes with a cost in this case. Expect zero support and zero reliability should something go wrong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OpenX? We have have used OpenX for about 3 years. It's constantly being hacked. Security holes and vulnerabilities run rampant and it always takes a loss of data or corruption of files to be reported before OpenX will do anything about it. There is also very limited support. The community forum is a graveyard of unanswered questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering OpenX: The entire software needs to be revamped, not repackaged as Revive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OpenX solving and how is that benefiting you? Honestly? None what so ever. We recently switched over the Google DFP for Small Business. It's a much better solution.

You get what you pay for." 1/5 What do you like best about OpenX? Broad reach for display units. Cheapest CPM prices out there for IAB standard units. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OpenX? Extremely low quality (shady) inventory: We were continuously uncertain where our ads were running or whether they were visible at all. We saw incredibly low click through rates/survey completion rates from this inventory. Customer service liaisons were primarily concerned with pushing additional spend as opposed to rectifying issues, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering OpenX: I would only recommend using this inventory when in desperate need of cheap reach which does NOT need to perform to any measurable KPI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OpenX solving and how is that benefiting you? At times I am called upon to distribute survey units or pixel packages at an extremely high scale without receiving remuneration from the advertiser. This inventory can be used to preserve margin while still delivering on the contracted number of bonus impressions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
