The Trade Desk Platform Likes & Dislikes
The ability to create templates for different channels and use them to set up new campaigns. This is a huge time saver. Their audience AI (or Koa audience) tool. This tactic often outperforms others, and sometimes even retargeting. Their omnichannel optimization tool. This tool allows us to prioritize serving ads from multiple channels to the same users for a true omnichannel experience.
They support many branches of business
I like how we can access many different formats within one platform e.g. CTV, Display & Audio. Great how we can retarget users from different campaigns. e.g. from a user who has seen audio, retarget with CTV ad. This increases full funnel activity hitting the same users in different formats. great hands on support with Campaign QAs/ set up/ optimisations / support etc.
While overall Kokai is an enhancement to the platform, its functionality has its downfalls in comparison to Solimar (the previous UI). I find it easier to revert to the old platform when I need a glimpse at a campaign's performance - especially if the campaign is not currently live. Losing the ability to manually set up PMPs and contract groups in Kokai is a big downfall for me as well. Their fees are also higher than other DSPs.
1) Too many settings 2) Not dummy proof 3) All that data and still not enough insights to gather
- more complicated to use compared to other DSPs. - Report's don't download immediately compared to other DSPs. - High added costs that aren't always explained e.g. data/feature costs

Exceptional Service and Proactive Account Management Stand Out in Ad Tech Industry
The account managers at TTD are extremely responsive, helpful and proactive. In a world dominated by a few select companies, that usually translates to lack of help and disinterest from the major players, something that is a stark contrast to what TTD offers.
