Comparison
Adxerv vs Google Ad Manager
Google Ad Manager is a publisher-side ad server tied to Google's demand ecosystem. Adxerv is independent: it serves and measures for advertisers, agencies, networks and publishers without owning any inventory or demand.
Positioning
The short version
GAM is free at low volume because the exchange monetises your inventory. If independence matters — because you buy media, or because you don't want your delivery data feeding the same company that sells you the media — an independent serving layer is the point.
