"Realize Makes Media Mix Diversification Easy with Powerful Control and AI Optimization"
5/5
What do you like best about Realize?

like how Realize combines ease of use with strong performance and control. The interface is intuitive, campaign setup is straightforward, and reporting makes it easy to understand what is driving results. Its integrations and broad publisher network help expand reach beyond traditional search and social channels without adding unnecessary complexity. I also value the AI-powered optimization, which supports audience targeting, bidding, and ongoing campaign improvements. Pricing is transparent, with no unexpected ad-tech fees, and the support team is responsive when guidance is needed. Overall, Realize makes it easier to diversify the media mix while maintaining control and focusing on measurable outcomes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effective Reach and Ease of Use, Needs Better Algorithm Clarity"
4/5
What do you like best about Realize?

I think Realize has access to good publishers, which allows us to cover more ground and reach users effectively. The platform is easy to use, which is really nice. I also value the contact tool targeting feature, as it is very valuable. The initial setup was very easy, especially with the guidance from the Realize team.

What do you dislike about Realize?

I think a lot of work needs to go into the algorithm from a lead gen perspective or just a conversion perspective. At times, it really wasn't clear, and oftentimes, it seemed like relaunching campaigns was the most effective solution. Whereas on other platforms, generally leaving campaigns on and letting the algorithm acquire learnings is the optimal decision. Also, sometimes we would turn on campaigns that didn't perform well in the past, and they would suddenly start performing well. So, understanding better how the algorithm works, I think is ideal.

Realize is best platform to do native advertising and to reach the premium publishers. The UI UX flow of the platform is very easy to navigate. I was able to integrate with lookerstudio for analysis. Campaign performance were really impressive, we got mass visibility. The pricing for campaign as lower as compared to other platforms. The onboading support is not thst much good. I haven't used AI features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The support needed to improve. The platform wrongly disable your account even after ad approval and then you need to spend alot time for appeal Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Great Next Step for Native Traffic Beyond Meta and Google"
5/5

Realize is the new version of Taboola, the largest Native Ad Network. If you are looking for alternative sources of traffic outside of Meta and Google, Realize (Native) is a great next step Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Realize?

Large amounts of low quality traffic. You really need to sift through the sites to find the pockets of premium traffic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Real-Time Insights Boost Ad Success"
4/5
What do you like best about Realize?

I really like Realize because of its real-time feature that shows ad results and spending as they happen, which allows me to know exactly what I'm doing instead of waiting for stats to update. The initial setup was very easy, which I appreciated as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Realize?

I should be able to whitelist domains. Last time I contacted the support, they said it's only possible on a Managed account. Meanwhile, I am on a self-service account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The volatility of the results is the main issue. Sometimes we have a streak of good days with great performance, and then that streak gets broken by sudden peaks in cost per acquisition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ease and Real-Time Results, But Slow Evaluation"
5/5
What do you like best about Realize?

I like the ease of use of Realize, it really makes the experience quite simple. Additionally, the real-time functionality is extremely valuable, allowing for a quick understanding of campaign results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Realize?

I find the manual analysis process complicated because they use humans for these analyses and it takes a long time to start a campaign. This can take from 24 hours to 5 days, and once it starts, it's another 5 days to optimize the campaign. This makes it difficult to wait so long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive Interface, Quick Campaign Setup"
4/5
What do you like best about Realize?

I like Realize's intuitive interface and easy setup, making it quick and simple to get new campaigns running. All data can be displayed with just a few clicks, and the outcomes are transparent, allowing me to show detailed results for single ads, specific sites, or on a campaign level. I also appreciated the option to manually boost certain sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Realize?

I liked the option to manually boost certain sites, but it used to be possible to adjust CPCs manually and boost them by 10% if internal data showed good results. It seems that this feature is no longer available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Realize is easy to use and the customer service is top notch. There's always someone available if I have a question, and they don't just answer it—they try to help me achieve my goal in the best way they can. The initial setup of Realize was very easy, which was a big plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Realize?

There is some lower viewability placements/higher fraud that we see on our site that we have to swat away a bit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
