That changes the pick. Here's my order:\n\n**1. Everflow** - My default recommendation for most agencies. It was built in the performance-advertising world, so multi-advertiser setups, click-level analytics, SmartLinks, and fraud tooling are native rather than bolted on. Agencies and networks are a core customer segment, not an edge case. Entry is around $750/mo on the Core plan (6-month contract), with mid-market programs landing $1,000-$3,000+. Best capability-per-dollar in the category.\n\n**2. TUNE (formerly HasOffers)** - The one to pick if true multi-tenancy is the hard requirement. TUNE explicitly supports building multi-tenant environments where an agency manages multiple clients, each with separate logins, reporting, and configuration. That's the thing most SaaS tools fail at. Scale plan is ~$1,500/mo billed annually with 2,500 conversions included; custom above that.\n\n**3. impact.com** - The enterprise answer, and widely rated the stronges", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
