Adverity makes two products.
Adverity Connect handles data integration and is the subject of this page. Adverity Atlas is a separate marketing knowledge layer. It works on Connect data or any other warehouse you already use. Also building an agentic marketing team? Adverity Atlas is where that conversation starts.
Supermetrics is a marketing data connector used by 200,000+ companies in 120 countries. It connects data from 150 native sources directly into Google Sheets, Looker Studio, BigQuery, and other destinations, with no technical setup required. It is fastest to value in simple scenarios: a small team pulling paid media data into a spreadsheet or existing BI tool can be running within hours.
Adverity Connect is an enterprise-grade marketing ETL. It collects marketing data from 600+ sources, applies transformation, and harmonizes metrics so they are comparable across platforms. Data lands in your warehouse or 40+ destinations. Four quality monitors run on every fetch, flagging issues before data arrives. Built for marketing data specifically, not adapted from a general-purpose tool. Six hundred customers use it today, from direct-to-consumer brands to global media agencies.

When to choose
Your team needs transformation and you're not on Supermetrics Enterprise.
Supermetrics locks data blending and Custom Fields behind the Enterprise tier with no exceptions documented as of June 2026. Any team that normalizes data across multiple paid media platforms, or needs to calculate cross-platform KPIs, runs into a hard wall on any sub-Enterprise Supermetrics plan. Adverity Connect includes transformation from the first tier.
Connector reliability is a commercial risk, not just an inconvenience.
A brand running significant paid media spend cannot afford to discover stale data days after a connector broke. Connect's four universal monitors run on every fetch: volume deviations, schema changes, duplication, and timeliness failures are all flagged before data reaches the warehouse. That alert comes first, not a Monday morning discovery that last week's dashboard was wrong.
Your Supermetrics setup has outgrown the tool.
A team that started with Supermetrics for basic reporting and has grown to 12+ sources across multiple destinations is stacking per-source, per-destination, and per-user charges. And still has no transformation below the Pro tier. At that level of complexity, Connect delivers transformation at every tier, continuous quality monitoring, and unlimited workspace nesting as part of the standard package.
When to choose
You need a fast, low-cost start for a simple use case.
If you are a small team connecting two or three paid media platforms to Google Sheets or Looker Studio, with no transformation requirement and no warehouse, Supermetrics delivers that at a fraction of Connect's price floor. It is fast and genuinely easy to set up.
Your team lives in Google Workspace or Microsoft 365.
Supermetrics has native integrations with both environments. For teams whose entire reporting workflow runs through Google Sheets or Excel, and who want to keep it there, Supermetrics fits that workflow better than a warehouse-first tool. The connector goes where your team already works.
You are an SMB agency running straightforward paid media reporting.
Supermetrics has 200,000+ customers, a strong agency community, and a product designed for teams that need to pipe platform data to a dashboard with minimal configuration. If your client base is relatively contained, your reporting workflow is consistent, and you don't need to normalize data across campaigns, markets, or platforms, Supermetrics is a reasonable starting point. For agencies managing complex multi-client programs, inconsistent naming conventions, or enterprise governance requirements, Connect is the better tool.

Most migration anxiety comes from the unknown.
It shrinks fast once you map what you actually have.
Adverity Connect's implementation is not self-serve. Every customer gets a dedicated account manager from day one: not a ticketing system, not an onboarding checklist. 44% of Adverity's G2 reviewers cite support as the standout positive, the single most mentioned theme across 263 reviews. Supermetrics is built around a self-serve model; their service layer is an add-on to a product designed to be used without it.
Adverity Connect onboarding takes 30 to 60 days. Your account manager works through the transition with you: mapping existing pipelines, setting up connectors, confirming data quality before the old system is switched off. You run both pipelines in parallel until the team is confident. Nothing gets cut over until you say it does.
A tool that doesn't fit your data requirements, breaks connectors without alerting you, or can't accommodate your org structure is not a neutral choice. It has a cost that compounds every month.
Enterprise-grade ETL, without enterprise-grade complexity.
