Excellent Yield Optimization and Data Management Capabilities Fuel PubMatic’s Competitive Edge
NEW YORK – PubMatic (www.PubMatic.com), a media technology company that provides a holistic inventory, data and advertising revenue optimization platform for digital publishers, announced that Forrester Research, Inc. has named it a leading sell-side platform.
PubMatic’s recognition was published in “The Forrester Wave: Sell-Side Platforms, Q4 2011,” which evaluated companies based on 34 criteria including the platform’s current offering, strategy and market presence.
“PubMatic has been leading the way for helping publishers maximize revenue for nearly five years and we’re delighted that our technology, innovation and commitment to service have been recognized by both Forrester and our clients,” said Rajeev Goel, Co-Founder and CEO of PubMatic. “In the coming months, we will continue to deliver industry-leading products and services that help publishers navigate the increasing complexity of the digital marketplace.”
The analysts noted that while all leading sell-side platforms offer strong publisher controls and deep levels of reporting, PubMatic specifically “excels at yield optimization and serving publisher needs like audience data management.” The company stood out as the only technology provider whose data management capabilities were cited in the report.
“Leading publishers are increasingly adopting sales platforms that enable them to gain new insights into their media and audience to identify new sales opportunities,” said Kirk McDonald, President of PubMatic. “PubMatic provides one complete solution to meet these publishers’ needs and we will continue to lead this category by offering publishers even more ways to grow their businesses.”
