Review summary

Users appreciate Microsoft's knowledgeable live chat support, decent analytics, and cost-effective ad delivery. However, many face frequent, unexplained account suspensions and poor customer support. The app offers limited campaign management compared to desktop, and users experience complex login processes and payment problems. Overall, the app works well for monitoring but lacks full functionality and responsive support.
Pros
  • Good support with knowledgeable live chat representatives
  • Provides useful analytics and data to track advertising campaigns
  • Generally effective at delivering ads that can cost less than competitors
  • Allows adding funds via the app, improving usability over browser-only options
  • Some users find the app easier or better than Google Ads with helpful recommendations and tools
Cons
  • Frequent and seemingly unexplained account suspensions causing frustration
  • Poor customer service with lack of clear communication on suspensions or violations
  • Limited functionality in the app compared to desktop version, making campaign management difficult
  • Complex and cumbersome login/authentication process with multi-step security
  • Payment issues such as charges without ad placements or delayed fund additions

They block accounts without telling exact reason. Tried three times to solve it, always the same jargon. Guess I never ever can't and want to use this. Google ads is better. No I will not go through this the third time, all I ever get is 'sorry can't help'

Worst...just created the account even the account creation was not complete. I was just about to enter payment details and i got an email of violationg their so called policies and suspended my account. I apealed that how can i violate your policies when i did not even use the account and ran any ad on it even i just entered my email address to create the account. But after few hours i got the email suspension upheld because i am violating their policies i don't know how. Worst experience

My account was suspended when I tried to add funds through the app. When I reached out to support for review, they cited a violation of the user agreement (suspended permanently). I’ve been using this account for years without any issues. In the past year, I’ve only had one or two campaigns running ads, and I haven’t made any changes. I don’t understand what caused the suspension, and they haven’t provided any details. It’s really disappointing.

The main problem is when I try to add money to my account using this app and switch to my bank app to confirm the payment, I switch bank to this app and see only blank page. Paying via browser works fine.

Worst advertisement network. Your account will get suspended even you don't create any campaign. First they will disable the account and then irritate you. Better to go for google ads. Also they have ancient dashboard which they don't know how to make user friendly. Specially there keyword planner is most oldest thing on earth

I spend over an hour of my time setting up my account to literally get my account suspended for no reason since I'm a first time user. I spend thousands of dollars monthly on google ads and decided to see if bing ads is any good and now I know why Google is champion. Thank you for wasting my time Microsoft and you won't get a penny from me but thats probably a good thing since you don't care about customer acquisition means you don't care about your customers.

Banned over a year ago because of the stupid egregious policy violation on new account and still angry. I downloaded this app just to give it a well derserved 1 star. Other still complains about the same thing which means there's still no improvement made.

In terms of the basic needs, it's all there. But there's a lot of work to do in terms of being able to really make changes like you can on Google Ads. You only have some metrics, you can only customize columns so much, you rarely have any visualisations, overall it is pretty lacking.

Hundreds spent on ads, all clicks coming from spam websites! This is criminal. Hundreds of clicks, zero conversions! Shadiest ad platform, they try to cover it up too by not telling you what sites your clicks are coming from. Only way I found out was from my analytics software.
