SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Nov 29, 2017) - Verto Analytics (http://vertoanalytics.com), the consumer-centric measurement company, today announced continued market momentum with a 48 percent increase in month-to-month revenue since the beginning of Q1/2017.
The company's growth has been largely fueled by a high demand for research and measurement solutions that help brands and publishers overcome the challenge of media fragmentation. Verto also tripled its U.S.-based customers in 2017 with the addition of several Fortune 500 brands and publishers, establishing itself as a next-generation alternative for providing single-source, cross-platform audience measurement.
"Our vision is to be the industry's go-to source for consumer behavioral insights," said Hannu Verkasalo, CEO of Verto Analytics. "We put the consumer in the center of our measurement methodology, and doing so gives companies the ability to see how behavior and mindsets are evolving in a very transparent way. With a holistic understanding of a single consumer's cross-platform journey, how audiences engage with media on a daily basis, and the effectiveness of media and advertising, our customers are delivering more seamless experiences that drive engagement, loyalty, and results for their businesses."
Specifically, Verto launched three products in 2017 to give brands and publishers a better way to segment, measure, and target:
- Smart Poll: A comprehensive research offering for brands and market research professionals that combines attitudinal survey research with passive cross-device metering. Smart Poll makes it possible to tie customers' segmentation models and attitudes to deep passive behavioral data and cross-platform audience insights.
- Audience Profiles: The first single-source audience measurement solution to combine behavioral, demographic, competitive, and device-specific insights into one package. With day-in-the-life charts, unduplicated reach, and audience breakdowns, publishers and advertising sales teams can get the deep insights they need to differentiate their audience from competitors and win more advertising revenue.
- Verto Watch: An online research portal that provides on-demand access to cross-device behavioral data and competitive insights across apps, sites, and devices. Verto Watch serves small and large companies that need quick access to consumer market research to validate assumptions, track competitors, and track market trends.

- Liz Musch, Member, Board of Directors: Musch, a veteran advertising and technology industry executive, joined Verto's board to offer support as the company scales its product offerings to customers and market research partners.
In addition, Verto received industry-wide recognition for its measurement technology and market research, including published research from some of its customers:
- Verto was named a winner of AGTT's Screenforce Innovation Day for its work with MindTake around Verto's audiomatching technology, allowing for single-source measurement of video and content across all devices.
- Verto was also recognized as a leading player in the global clickstream analytics market for 2017 by QY Research Group.
