“Criteo easy for teams with low bandwidth, but quickly losing business. ”

3.0
Jun 18, 2025
We've been using Criteo for over 4 years now and so far it has been good (not great). What we've seen in the last few years is that retailers are starting their own retail media networks and Criteo is quickly falling behind.

Criteo Commerce Max Likes & Dislikes

Like

I like how criteo's effective retargeting tailor ads based on individual used behaviour, which greatly improves personalization and conversion rates.

Like

Communication on their end and the functionality of their platform. It is very easy to manage our paid search digital campaigns at retailers that use them for now.

Like

1. Very good DMP and audience targeting algorithm which runs on Programmatic or Biddable commands easily 2. Interactive and easy to use dashboard 3. Integration and implementation went smoothly 4. The product team is always ready to help 5. Super secure payment gateway

Dislike

Reporting isn't always real time, so there can be some delay in seeing the impact of changes made to campaigns.

Dislike

They are significantly more expensive than any other platform that does the same (Criteo, WMC, etc.). They are also losing lots of their retailer partners but will not scale back their price.

Dislike

I don't have much to add. However, I recommend as a Digital enthusiast that they enhance their AI more so that the budget allocation and publisher exclusion can be learnt from past learnings.

    Great for retargeting but has room for improvement

    Oct 3, 2024
    It is great for retargeting and can help improve conversion for e-commerce business, but the main problem is, it is lacking transparency in reporting and limited control over ad placement making it less flexible for us who wants to control our campaign granularly.
