ClickCease

I tried all the rest, and I went with the best.

Opmerkingen: It's rare when you test out all of the competitors in a market segment, and one of the stands SO FAR above the rest, in all the areas that are most important (effectiveness, price, management, implementation, and support team). This has been our consistent experience with ClickCease.

Pluspunten:

To think that fraud doesn't exist within many industries, is turning a blind eye to the facts. Our OWN clients used to engage in click-fraud on a slow day, before we worked with them to improve their leads, and Google Ads close rates (and put them into the top place, and now they are so busy, they don't have time to think about such things). After doing long demo tests of PPC Protect and ClickGuard, it was immediately apparent that ClickCease NOT ONLY had a superior SYSTEM, but they had a proper TEAM to work with you, help guide the onboarding (which honestly, is quick and easy, even if you're not wildly skilled with these types of solutions), and to jump in and explore different use-cases and options at the drop of a hat. I've NEVER felt rushed, I've ALWAYS found their team to be knowledgeable, friendly, and responsive. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and I just worked through a number of conceptual use-cases, as we are seeing easily $2K+ fraud/month savings for some heavy accounts. The fact that we pay... $50 per account, and our SMALLEST account is saving $55 (on a slow month), and our busiest is saving $2,876.20/month... it's the definition of a "no-brainer". And THEN you get Ad-Spy? That's a standalone product by another vendor (and I've bought them before) AND it's better.

Minpunten:

I buy and return a LOT of software, because it doesn't live up to the hype. I have -100% cons for ClickCease.

Redenen om over te stappen op ClickCease: Management interface, price, speed to successful implementation, and SUPPORT. I felt like my questions were a BOTHER to the other companies, (and I mean, come ON, I'm writing THIS glowing review after 6+ months of using ClickCease, if you don't have time for your customers, they don't have time for you). AdSpy? Did I mention... AdSpy? We are using it so spy on new areas and industries we want to expand into.. they don't market it for this, but we now know who wants to answer the phone when we offer our services.

PPC Business Must- have

Opmerkingen: Overall the day we turned it on we noticed an immediate difference. It's like breathing for the first time.

Pluspunten:

Google doesn't block 100% of fraud and it's good to have REAL numbers when comparing Adwords invalid click rates and comparing it to your own Device ID data. Clickcease keeps PPC honest and really gives us insight into when we're wasting dollars on Adwords and WHICH competitors are clicking on our ads and their own. Pretty interesting stuff if you use it the right way.

Minpunten:

Display ad placement blocking features and excluding low quality sites is a recently added feature that still doesn't perform optimally. And we wish it worked on Youtube.

Most reliable option Click Fraud wise

Opmerkingen: Customer service is at the top, you have a follow-up since the first step that it really helps to develop the "skills" of this tool, dashboard, and reports are friendly enough for any level, all this comes with a price so you need to verify if the ROI regarding the fraudulent cliks it worth your time, it offer a free trial so you can easily verify the advantages of the tool

Pluspunten:

Custome service support, since the free trial option you have a constant support from the agents, you find webminars tutorials with all the "how to" in order to use the tool, you can generate automatically reports in order to report Google

Minpunten:

At first sight is an expensive tool, obviously is a money that you can get refund is you apply to it...after this point it depends on Google, if you are able to recover 20% of all the fraudulent clicks you will cover the expenses

Not worth the cost

Opmerkingen: We were initially pretty happy with ClickCease and had a great onboarding.
We then realized after a few months that this wasn't helping at all and was pretty costly for limited benefits.
We decided to cancel and were offered 50% for a few months, but eventually the price became unattractive again.

Pluspunten:

- Simple user interface and user experience - Fairly easy setup

Minpunten:

- Very high cost compared to the value provided - Google Ads is limited the blocked IP addresses to 500, making ClickCease partially useless - Google Ads would deny our refund claims on the basis that ClickCease algorithm is generating false positives and their anti-fraud algorithm is already covering all bases

Essential part of our Google Ads success

Pluspunten:

The click fraud feature as part of the software has saved us hundreds of dollars in the first few months of implementation!

Minpunten:

Customer support is a bit lacking. I'd love to have some more help from customer service to see if there's anything we could be doing better.
