Comparing Media Planning and Buying Software to GaleForceMedia

There are many media planning and buying software options on the market, which can be overwhelming when trying to decide which is the best choice for you and your team. GaleForceMedia has decided to break down just a few of its competitors to demonstrate how we are the premier choice for media buyers and agencies everywhere.

GaleForceMedia v. Strata

Strata is a major media planning and buying platform, but one of the biggest downfalls is that it is not independently owned. FreeWheel controls Strata and several other platforms, which is beneficial if you are using them, but it can be tough to integrate Strata with other systems needed for media buying. Not only that, Strata is the most expensive of the options we are listing in this blog, so it is not the ideal option among smaller agencies or buyers.

GaleForceMedia v. Mediaocean

Mediaocean, another mainstream media planning and buying platform, has several other capabilities within its software. This can be a positive when you are working on other aspects of your advertising and marketing plan, but for media buyers and media-only agencies, it can be too much to deal with, especially when you have to switch to different tools to complete your media plan. Additionally, with features you aren’t fully taking advantage of, it can be like throwing money down the drain.

GaleForceMedia v. Advantage

The final media planning and buying solution we will touch on is Advantage. The main downfall of Advantage is that it simply looks outdated. Without a fresh, easy-to-use interface, users may be turned off from using it altogether. They also do not have a recommendations capability, which is crucial – and a huge help – for planning out the next quarter or even year of media buys.
