Marin helps us to track and handle advanced keyword bidding.

Marin helps us to track and handle advanced keyword bidding.

Pros

The most liked feature by me is that Marin helps me to do tasks in bulk to Google And Bing Ads.

Cons

Sometimes graphs don’t correspondent to the chosen filters which is very irritating.

Good For Program Management

Reviewed on 2024/03/05

Pros

We use Marin Software for PPC campaign management. The dimensions feature allows us to apply company-specific values into the final URL for offline tracking, and we can roll up and report by those same dimensions easily. Marin's cross-platform reporting makes is easy to pull data for initiatives that are executed in more than one platform.

Cons

Marin's automated bidding is transparent, down to the keyword-level. The only downside with automated bidding is the "Impression Share" target. If a campaign is budget capping and not hitting the IS target, Marin will continue to bid up to increase impression share, which just makes the campaign hit the campaign daily budget faster.

I have used the bidding algorithm for 6 years and it is really solid for large google ads accounts, however anything else I don't use Marin for since it is just not very good at performing manual tasks, the ads editor is much better for that.

Pros

The bidding algorithm which we have used for 6 years, anything else is not worth mentioning.

Cons

Support is bad.
Interface is unintuitive.
Setup is a pain in the "new" Marin One, it was a lot easier in the old Marin Search.
A lot of features are not working in Marin One even though they launched it 2 years ago, so you have to toggle between One, Search and Social which is a real headache.
Eager to collect payments, but not eager to help setting up clients in the new Marin One platform.
Can't answer simple questions about how to setup CPA bidding for facebook, but refer to old guides for the old interface.

Alternatives Considered

Optmyzr, Clerk.io, Skai and Acquisio

Reasons for Choosing Marin Software

Black box scenario with Finch, Marin gives more transparency.

Reasons for Switching to Marin Software

I have used it for a long time with the old platform which has been a solid solution, but the new Marin One platform is just completely buggy and half the functionality is not even working after 2 years. I don't think Marin will last in 5 years if they don't improve.

Marin Software for YOTEL

Reviewed on 2024/03/28

Pros

I have worked with Marin Software prior to joining YOTEL. The most important thing for us is that the bidding automations reduce my team's workload whilst still allowing us to step in and take control at critical moments. Marin is also very transparent about the way that bid adjustments are calculated which is important for us to understand what is happening

Cons

I think the user interface doesn't necessarily make it very easy for new users to appreciate all the features that are available.

I'm a one person team and for obvious reasons sometimes get behind on the marketing tasks. The calls with the Marin team always feel like a refresher for the week instead of what it might feel like when you're always behind! The customer support on top of an awesome dashboard of analytics (customized to your needs) is an incredible value to us.

Pros

I love the ability to pull in all of our campaigns and look across our efforts at one dashboard. We're a small team who was working with a firm to pull this data. For about the same price, we're getting all the data and a roadmap to further optimize our campaigns.

Cons

I didn't love the interface but they just did an overhaul and made some serious improvements. When I've been looking for something within Marin that isn't there, the team is all ears and often able to come up with a solution. They're pulling data from Marin into a web query so that I don't have to manually pull my marketing reports every Friday. It has been a great relationship.
