What is the best tracker to start with for beginner?

Thinking about:

1) Keitaro
2) Binomo
3) FunelFlux

Thanks in advance

Binom is great, but it's a self hosted tracker so you also need a host for it. That's not a bad thing, but it will increase the price a bit. Great solution for high traffic campaigns though.

I've never used Keitaro so can't comment on that.

Funnelflux is great too, using a bit different logic and a visual setup that works great for some people and is good for creating specific funnels. There are both self hosted and cloud versions available. The pricing with the self hosted one is the same as with binom, the cloud version starts at $99 which is pretty much the industry standard.

There is also Voluum, which is also very good, but more pricey and the basic plan has limited functionality.

Let's not forget about redtrack, good tracker again and they have a cheaper basic cloud plan.

There is also CPVlab pro, self hosted again but with a lower price tag.

And there are several more

It's hard to say which one of them to go with, they all have their pros and cons.

The first thing to answer... do you want a self hosted tracker or a cloud (hosted) solution?

Well I can tell you that I tried Voluum and to be quite honest I was not impressed enough to continue paying $62 per month. For the discovery plan the features are limited and it’s heavily incentivised that you upgrade to a more premium tier. Furthermore you only get a million events and in the month I used it I used around 350-400k. The overcharge price is also a bit steep.
If you want a good cloud based tracker try bemob for a more fair price to performance. For cloud based tracker try Binom.
Binom has unlimited clicks, ssl domains, tons of integrations etc.
I’m switching to binom soon but I need to switch from a vultr server first.

After having used Redtrack, which was good, the one area that Voluum really shines is with support. They are easy to get a hold of, they are quick, and rarely does the platform mess up.

That said, it almost certainly wouldn't make sense for Pops and probably even Push due to the low limits on events. However, Zeropark events are free. So if you like that source, it doesn't count against your event limit.

Which tier subscription are you on for Voluum?

Please remember, I am on Native. So I'm paying a lot more for traffic and not doing anywhere near the event volume that someone on Pops would.

I'm on the middle tier with Voluum, Pro I believe? I was on the same with Redtrack. I needed the SSL and data so those are the ones I went with.

Also, you can often find a discount for either one if you look.

Yeah I understand. I think that’s their target audience, people with huge budgets. It would be great for you since you can buy native traffic directly through Voluum. I think I was just disappointed as to how barebones the discovery plan was. I was reading an older post on here outlining that they put their prices up a few years back.

The tracker itself worked fine and as expected. Traffic source integration was pretty neat even though once it got the campaign costs wrong.

IMO voluum is pretty consumer friendly if you have a massive hole in your pocket to spend on a tracker. It’s just not for me atm but OP it’s entirely up to you if you want to give it a go.

I'm biased, but hey...

Binom is the best tracker on the planet

Now that I've been using it for a longer time and I know how amazing it is, and how their support will tell you what server to buy (you can get a digital ocean VPS for cheeeep) and set everything up for you, it actually ends up cheaper and easier than any cloud solution. Plus, their support is fucking rad.

Voluum is good too. But way expensive for pops/push. And also can't do combined reports, which is insane. But their SmartAI algorithm for split testing offers and landers is fucking amazing, so... there is that

BeMob is good. It's a great, free-to-cheap Voluum clone, really. I have had zero problems with it for basic camps, it just lacks some more advanced features.

Kintura is free now too. And it's powerful af. Setting up camps takes a few extra steps compared to other trackers, but it's solid.

Cloud will be better. So many variants of them...

Thank you! A lot of people also suggest Binom.

Personally I use Binom.

It´s an amazing tracker and has everything I need.

For a beginner however I would definitely recommend to check out FunnelFlux.

It has a visual editor and I could imagine that this amkes it easier to work with it compared to the "traditional" tracker interface.

If you want to go with a cloud solution, RedTrack will be likely the best to start with, due to it's lower price when compared to the rest. They used to offer a discount to our members too, try to PM them they might have something running now : https://stmforum.com/forum/member.php?17521-redtrack

Bemob is also quite popular and the price is similar to RedTrack.

But as several guys mentioned in this thread, cloud trackers are billed per event or visit, so it can go up quickly when running a lot of clicks.

All of them are great actually. It just depends on which interface you will like more
I have used Keitaro, Binom and Voluume. Binom is definitely my winner

Hi. Keitaro or Binom. Each one has its own advantages. In case you don't want to spend money, there are free options like CPA tracker
