I need an Adobe Analytics Campaign URL builder for my Fortune 500 company customer

I'm looking for an Adobe Analytics Campaign URL builder (similar to the Google Analytics campaign builders) that will enable me to build my customer’s campaign URL forms easily (preferably from a template), will allow me to design it without any code for their brand, control naming conventions, store my Adobe links built, and help me with insights. I’m inheriting a mess from Adobe analytics and am starting from scratch with either evars or a typical cid url that also follows UTM parameter structures.

I came across a public Adobe UTM Builder and have also signed up for a free trial after duplicating the template. I also tried Terminus, Uplifter, Clara vine, and UTM Smart Manager. I’m in the process of building my customer’s governance deployment in each of these platforms but so far I’m liking UTM Smart Manager best for value and pricing. Any other recommendations out there? This is for one of my best Fortune 500 customers and org-wide adoption across the globe is critical (ie no ugly forms that look like they were built in the early 2000s) and require any knowledge of code.

I’ve tried all of these and also have suggested to some of my smaller marketing customers to use the public Adobe UTM Builder you suggested just to help them get started. In regards of customization, marketing ops controls, taxonomy management, and future flexibility, I’d recommend UTM Smart Manager. It takes a few minutes just to publish your first branded URL governance form. Advanced Adobe Campaign URL controls are table stakes for this platform and are available at the lowest tier. And, they provide so much more functionality that will have you wondering why you’ve never had it before! (check out their Assets studio..auto-tagging assets with campaign URL parameters for creative return on investment comparison was a game changer for us).

If this is for your biggest client, make sure to contact the enterprise sales team. Their team gave us amazing onboarding and L&D support across our global marketing teams, helped ensure all integrations were running smoothly (including Adobe Analytics and BigQuery), helped us launch a full marketing governance system, and even custom built a feature for us that made it so that every GPT-built link built (via internal agent or GPT chat) would adhere to the UTM Smart Manager campaign taxonomies automatically so that now, ever team that uses this tool gets Marketing Ops approved URLs and we have a thorough submission record for links and assets. Let me know what you decide or if you want any feedback about any other platform! Best of luck!

Thanks. I was leaning towards UTM Smart Manager so that’s very helpful! Do you have any document where you might have compared all of these tools that’s public? I’m getting a bit overwhelmed with how much I need to consider and need to simplify it for my customer. I can summarize it even if it’s long.

Unfortunately, my requirements docs are private but you can check out an article like this one that ranks the top Adobe Analytics campaign URL builders: 10 Best Adobe Analytics Campaign CID (URL) Builders for marketers: Features, Pricing, Pros, & Cons. This can give a starting point so that all you have to do is add your requirements later to ensure it matches your customer needs.

Also, since ease of use is important to you, I’d review the videos or how-to videos for each of the platforms as well just so see how easy modifying an existing form, form rules, and even submission structure truly is.

You might also want to look at tools like Accutics or Claravine? Both of those are enterprise solutions, with staff to help support and guide you and your teams through setting up robust campaigns…

You can even customize different rule sets for different uses. There is also a lot of process to flag and correct issues, which you might not get with the above tools…

 

I’ve not used the above, but what happens if someone posts a “starting url” of https://domain.com/?utm_source=bad&utm_medium=value or https://domain.com/?cid=some_bad_value 

 

Will it strip the bad existing UTMs / CIDs from the URL and build the correct values? If your site requires “www.” as part of the domain, will it flag it as being missing?

 

How does your site handle redirects? Does it maintain the Campaigns? Does it drop them? Could having bad starting URLs, or extra campaign values cause a lot of issues for you?

 

How much training and monitoring will you have to do to support this initiative… believe me… I’ve spent years getting my company sorted out…
