  ### 4. Great tool for competitive research.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** November 12, 2020

**What do you like best about Pathmatics by Sensor Tower?**

It's difficult to say what I like best. The ability to search competition for our clients is great. The different types of information provided re: where the competition is running, what type of ads, number of impressions is invaluable. Also how they are purchasing (either direct or indirect) is just plain interesting to me as a media planner. The Insights around COVID-19 have also been very valuable. I also really appreciate their customer service and check-ins with our rep. She' s great.

**What do you dislike about Pathmatics by Sensor Tower?**

The only thing I dislike is the recent change to the Native Content. It is more difficult to access.

**Recommendations to others considering Pathmatics by Sensor Tower:**

We are not a large agency and Pathmatics has worked with us when other similar platforms haven't even returned our calls. The system is amazing and the team really listens to client requests.

**What problems is Pathmatics by Sensor Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are providing a service to our clients that they could not get elsewhere without having to spend a lot of time searching all over the internet for it. With Pathmatics most of what we need is contained in one place. One benefit we have realized this year is that with the addition of tracking Facebook and Twitter we are able to provide some additional insight in a quick quarterly "one pager" we provide to the client that gives them data immediately after the end of the quarter while we do a deeper competitive dive.

I use Pathmatics as a research tool. I'm happy with the ability to understand where brands are running and what type of media they're running.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jordan C. | Associate Media Director, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 07, 2020

**What do you like best about Pathmatics by Sensor Tower?**

I think the dashboard is really great, perhaps one of the best I've seen among several competitive tools. The data seems robust as well and appears to capture a good amount of impressions and spend. Site delivery details are also impressive and provide a good window into understanding the top sites that my competitors are advertising on.

**What do you dislike about Pathmatics by Sensor Tower?**

Social channels are limited to only Facebook and Twitter which is unfortunate. There also needs to be an easier way to sort through creatives as there can be thousands depending on the time period. Finally, the product selection under the advertisers is very limited and makes it difficult to isolate particular products under an advertiser.

**Recommendations to others considering Pathmatics by Sensor Tower:**

While the tool isn't a solve for everything, it provides a great picture of competitive activity from a spend and creative perspective. The tool is also easy to deploy and train new users.

**What problems is Pathmatics by Sensor Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are mainly using the tool for competitive spend requests, particularly for social media. The platform provides an efficient way to gather data as the selections are intuitive to find and reports easy to export. We also use the tool to track display and video media activity for our competitors, and the tool gives good insight into which formats our competitors are using and which websites they are running on. The tool has also been helpful in letting us understand the creative that our competitors are running so that we may use these learnings to inform the development of our own creative.
