What people like

It's a genuine full-stack alternative to Google's ad platform – demand-side, supply-side and ad server all in one – built specifically to keep data inside the EU.

Worth knowing

It's built for agencies and large advertisers rather than small businesses, so the learning curve and minimum spend are both steep.
