CAKE is the Cadillac of Tracking Software
Being the best platform in the industry doesn't always mean it is the easiest. But that can be said about any sophisticated SaaS platform. I think CAKE creates a good balance for inexperienced users to navigate and get things set up on a simplistic level. However, for those who are advanced users CAKE would not be complete without a killer support staff and client service team. These are the people that bring everything together and make for a great overall experience.
PROSCAKE is by far the most intuitive, customizable and reliable tracking system in the marketplace. The UI is clean and easy to navigate. The setup and deployment of new campaigns is simple. The reporting granularity is amazing. CAKE is simply an all-around amazing tracking platform. There is not another system in the marketplace that comes close.
CONSThere are a few quirky things here and there, but nothing that disrupts our core business. Reporting visualization needs an upgrade.
Reason for choosing CAKE
All of the other players in the market are good at one thing, marketing. But don't get caught up in the shiny interfaces and low-ball pricing. One look under the hood and each of these platforms come up short to the overall functionality that CAKE provides. At the end of the day, a platform should cater to the specific requirements the client has. So from my perspective, I chose CAKE because I wanted the most capable and feature-rich system supporting my business.

A Costly Disconnect: Our Frustrating Experience with CAKE Affiliate Software
Our experience with CAKE has been nothing short of a nightmare. From the outset, the platform promised to streamline our affiliate marketing efforts, but it ended up causing significant financial damage and immense frustration. The most glaring issue was the astonishing disconnect between their business and IT departments, leading to miscommunication and unfulfilled promises. While CAKE did eventually refund our payment, it barely scratched the surface of the financial loss and wasted time we endured.
PROSIn our experience with CAKE Affiliate Software, there wasn't much to celebrate in terms of positive aspects. The refund they provided in response to the exorbitant and unexpected bill was the only silver lining in an otherwise frustrating and costly ordeal. Unfortunately, the disconnect between CAKE's business and IT departments and the subsequent issues we encountered overshadowed any potential benefits the platform may have offered. While we appreciate the refund, it remains a small consolation in the face of the substantial financial damage and wasted time we endured during our association with CAKE.
CONSOur experience with CAKE Affiliate Software left us deeply dissatisfied. Months of dedication and effort went into setting up their platform for our affiliate marketing program, only to culminate in a shockingly high five-figure bill that completely blindsided us. The most glaring issue that emerged during our tenure with CAKE was the alarming disconnect between their business and IT departments. It seemed as though these two vital components of their company were working in separate universes. This misalignment resulted in a litany of problems that ultimately culminated in a disastrous financial outcome for our organization.
Reason for choosing CAKE
We initially opted for CAKE over Everflow due to CAKE's enticing promise of a highly customizable platform for our affiliate program. The prospect of tailoring the system to our specific needs and requirements seemed like the ideal solution. However, in the end, CAKE failed to deliver on these promises of customization and flexibility. This disconnect between expectation and reality left us deeply disappointed and disillusioned with CAKE's capabilities, ultimately leading to a significant financial setback and wasted time.

Ain't it Sweet?
I made the best decision to work with CAKE when starting my business. Tracking and learning any platform can be overwhelming at times just because there's always a lot going on. Without the support I've received from each team member at CAKE. I may not be where I'm at today.
PROSThe platform provides every tracking tool I need to track my leads.
CONSI don't like that I can't get someone on the phone over the weekend. If there's a tracking issue in this business you can quickly loose thousands of dollars in minutes. Submitting a ticket doesn't cut it when you need immediate help. Luckily, I have an AMAZING customer support manager who will go beyond the call of duty to help me if it's an urgent situation.
Reason for choosing CAKE
I worked at CAKE and new the people who worked there. I've also used CAKE with other companies I've work with. I thought about going to PX due to price.

Great Product + The Best Customer Support
We spend a lot more money with companies like Google/Facebook/Microsoft and don't get half the support that Cake gives us. Our account manager has always been there to help me and their ticket system has always been quick to resolve issues. Can't say enough good things about Cake support.
PROSEase of use. I don't have as much time as I'd like to dedicate to our affiliate program so Cake makes things a lot simpler and quicker for me. Our affiliate program used to be an in-house hacked together solution. Cake has saved us so much time.
CONSI'm still learning some of the technical aspects to affiliate marketing and feel some of their knowledge base articles aren't simple enough.
