STM Free Mobile Tracker vs Voluum? Need advice (5)

---

I am about to launch my first campaign and need to pick a tracker to go with.

It will be a mobile campaign through either Maxbounty or Avazu.

Would love to keep costs down by using a free tracker, but every one on here seems to be going with Voluum even though it is $99 a month.

What are the advantages of using Voluum over the free STM tracker? Is one substantially better/easier to use then the other?

Thanks for the advice!

Uptime.

Voluum is capable of handling hundreds of millions of events per day.

Stm mobile tracker needs to be hosted on a server that you control which can run pretty close to Voluum's 99/mo

Ok thanks for the advice - I guess it is worth the investment for the sake of convenience

---

Yup.

Also, Voluum has multiple servers around the world, which means that generally it'll respond faster than STM tracker on a single server. Given that tracker response time directly affects ROI, that's a big deal.

Thanks a lot, it makes sense now which way to go.
