    Peace of mind

    Date: Jan 20 2021

    Summary: Overall it works great. I hope to at some point implement ClickCease on all of my clients' pay-per-click accounts.

    Positive: ClickCease automatically identifies clicks that may have come from a competitor or spammer, saving me the time of trying to ascertain that on my own. It make it easy to block those IP addresses so that I get peace of mind knowing I won't waste money on those clicks.

    Negative: I do wish I didn't have to pay additional subscription fees for more than one domain.

    Real Clicks Only = Real ROI

    Date: Jan 20 2021

    Summary: I highly recommend it for any accounts that have suspicious spend activity. It's not a tool that's required for every account, but it makes a significant difference for those few accounts that need it.

    Positive: After implementing ClickCease, I've watched my clients Average Cost Per Conversion go down 400%! We finally are able to deliver leads at the national average for their industry.

    It's very easy to implement.

    Negative: No complaints, but I have to use 50 characters in this box.

    Love saving money and stopping the bots and competitors

    Date: Jan 16 2021

    Summary: Very easy and seamless. Just works in the background. I just check the report every month to see how much I have saved and I love being notified about my competitors.

    Positive: I love seeing how much you save and that all those nasty little bots are stopped and my competitors can't do the same.

    Negative: Still, working out how to send my reports to google so I can see what I can claim back from the bot attacks. That would be the icing on the cake.

    Helps minimize ad spend

    Date: Jan 15 2021

    Summary: All my clients and I love click cease. I recommend giving it a try if your are managing Google ads for a business/personal use.

    Positive: Since ever I used ClickCease I don’t have to now worry about fraud clicks on my paid ads. ClickCease would know and block all bots and fraud clicks and prevent them from clicking my paid ads. It has features to enable countries and automation based on your businesses preference. It would automatically block all fraud IPs and exclude that from my Google ads. I ended up saying up to 800 dollars and more worth of ad spend by implementing it for one of my clients.

    Negative: So far I have got great experience using this tool and I have not experienced any cons yet.

    Literally the best out there.

    Date: Jan 15 2021

    Summary: Saves us 30% of our PPC budget. I’d even say ClickCease are essential to a healthy bottom line if you’re in a crowded market.

    Positive: Customer service is great and not being defrauded by competitors day after day is even better. Saves 30% of our overall PPC budget.

    Negative: The only negative is that they don’t get their message out enough. I’d say a large percentage business owners who do their own PPC haven’t even heard of click fraud.

    This software has saved us tons

    Date: Jan 12 2021

    Summary: Very good product even with its limitations on the call only style ads. would definitely continue to use this program for protecting my digital ads.

    Positive: It helps stem some (a lot) of the malicious activity that we all know is pretty rampant when using pay per click advertising. Well worth the cost for the peace of mind knowing that you have some protection.

    Negative: there have been a few instances that the software wont catch someone until they have clicked 5-7 times.
    Also it seems to be limited on the per per click call only style campaigns.

    Must Have for All Advertisers

    Date: Jan 12 2021

    Summary: Good and recommend service to have for all advertisers. It helps us to prevent click frauders and also help us track the keywords that we are ranking for which is delicate enough for business owners like us to stay on top of the game in our industry.

    Positive: My company have been using ClickCease for 2 years now. Without hesitate, this is the best software I have used. I use it to track necessary keywords for my business and also it helps me to block click frauds (we know there are haters everywhere trying to exhaust your ad spend). ClickCease helps me in such a way that it blocks them to save my ad spend. Voila ClickCease
