“An Honest Look at Cheq Essentials: Pros, Cons, and Unanticipated Hurdles”

4.0
Apr 11, 2025
Cheq Essentials was pretty easy to set up, though I had some issues knowing which optional tagging to use. They have good support. The interface had some bugs. For instance, I had to redo the campaign segments a few times because they wouldn't save. I think the price was very reasonable.

One thing that was particularly nice was the ability to set different parameters for exclusion by campaign. Some campaigns had a higher instance of fraud, and we had to be more vigilant. The support was friendly as well.
