Sentrum for SaaS & Apps

See what's really driving installs and trials

Attribution is a mess. Sentrum cuts through the noise with clear creative and audience breakdowns so you know where your growth is actually coming from.

Built for app and SaaS marketers who need clarity on what's driving real growth — not vanity installs.

Sound familiar?

These are the problems saas & apps teams face every week.

"Meta says 500 installs, my dashboard says 200."

Attribution discrepancies between Meta and your analytics make it nearly impossible to know what's actually working.

"We're spending $50K/mo on app installs but CAC keeps climbing."

Install volume looks healthy on the surface, but cost per trial and cost per activation tell a different story.

"We tested 30 creatives last month and have no idea which ones actually drove trials."

Creative testing at scale is meaningless without clear performance attribution. You're flying blind.

"Our audiences overlap so much I think we're bidding against ourselves."

Audience overlap inflates costs and muddies attribution. You need visibility into how your targeting interacts.

You don't need more data. You need a diagnosis.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about using Sentrum for saas & apps.

How does Sentrum handle attribution discrepancies for app installs?

Sentrum analyzes Meta's reported install data alongside your conversion events to highlight discrepancies. While we use Meta's API data as the source of truth for ad performance, our diagnostics help you identify which campaigns and creatives show the largest gaps between Meta-reported and actual installs — so you can adjust budget allocation accordingly.

Can Sentrum track cost per trial, not just cost per install?

Yes. Sentrum tracks any conversion event you have set up in Meta — including trial starts, activations, and subscriptions. This means you can see true cost per trial and cost per activation, not just cost per install, giving you a much clearer picture of which campaigns drive real growth.

How does Sentrum detect audience overlap across ad sets?

Sentrum monitors performance patterns across your ad sets that indicate overlap — such as correlated CPM increases, declining efficiency when multiple ad sets scale simultaneously, and delivery competition signals. When overlap is likely inflating your costs, Sentrum flags it with specific recommendations.

Is Sentrum useful for SaaS companies running Meta ads?

Absolutely. SaaS companies face unique challenges with Meta ads: long conversion cycles, attribution gaps, and the need to track metrics beyond installs (trials, activations, subscriptions). Sentrum's diagnostic approach decomposes CAC changes into their root causes — CPM shifts, CTR decline, install rate drops, and trial conversion changes — giving you clarity on where to optimize.

Stop guessing. Start diagnosing.
