Speaking about the advantages of DOOH over traditional OOH advertising, Aninda Banerjee, MD, Enkon OOH shares, “Programmatic DOOH solutions along with AI and growth of influence on social media are challenging the traditional Out-of-Home advertising in the recent years. DOOH has created its dominance over the traditional offline out-of-home advertising. Advantages of technologies are known to all and DOOH offers constant traffic, better visibility and many more attention-grabbing elements through online display advertising coupled with enhanced creativity and right kind of targets.

"Traditional OOH advertising has become a challenge and requires a lot of human-efforts for implementation which is not the case with DOOH. In India traditional OOH is unorganised and the local municipal bodies are trying to streamline it. In many cities traditional OOH is becoming unauthorised due to changes in policies. Traditional OOH has influence of unauthorised installations. There is severe lack of uniform policies in India. DOOH allows to monitor, track, modify, manage, and display content at your own discretion and in real-time as well. DOOH advertising is aptly suitable as such media satisfies these demands with greater effectiveness and efficiency. And it is not possible with traditional OOH offline advertising", he adds.
