Alphasense
What do you like best about the product?
The software is AI embedded and offers excellent search results without making much effort to build query unlike Factiva which uses a lot of complex coding for it
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is lot more complex compared to peers which makes it difficult to use. I would have preferred a cleaner and easier interface for new users who dont know features and might get overwhelmed
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using it for tracking business news and research. It helps me become more efficient since the AI makes the search more contextual and removes junk results easily
A database that increases research productivity/efficiency
What do you like best about the product?
You can complete a research project in a fraction of time that it usually takes via google searches, company websites, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can't think of anything that is obvious. Maybe they can add more data sources (more medical conferences, for instance)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am researching diseases and biotech companies. The output is accurate, relevant and concise.
Best news alerts, competitor tracking, and analyst/market insights platform
What do you like best about the product?
The interface is excellent. The PDF search tools are extremely valuable given so many reports needed for access are pdfs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Setting up the alerts function is not entirely intuitive. For existing alerts, it is difficult to modify, rather than deleting and creating from scratch
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Analyst report consolidation so easy, old company materials that need to be dug up
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Best analyst coverage platform. Great way to consolidate former documents for any biotech strategy professional
Worth it for the equity research alone
What do you like best about the product?
The breadth of equity research
Clarity about what does and does not contribute to your equity quota
Centralization of company-published documents
Smart search capabilities (helpful, but still needs more development)

Smart search capabilities (helpful, but still needs more development)
What do you dislike about the product?
The smart search capabilities are still somewhat in development- i.e., Google's search can often generate more relevant content, but it's way better than a strict logical search.
The company and search alerts (email) aren't very well targeted yet. Part of this is user error- I haven't spent much time refining the alterts- but I suspect many people would not. I mostly delete the emails

General market research, competitive intelligence, and specific fact finding
The access to extensive equity research is a huge boon, and the easy search of earnings transcripts often turns up really great content

Time saver to scan across multiple items at once
What do you like best about the product?
I work in the competitive intelligence function and I particularly use the analyst research reports and the feature in alpha sense allows for scanning through key words pertaining to our business. Instead of manually reading through several reports, the AI-based text, positives and negatives feature helps with saving time to scan across major industry conference presentations. I am looking forward for the earnings transcript calls. The team was also very helpful to help set up my dashboards. The platform is very intuitive
What do you dislike about the product?
Not all brokerage research was available to me and this had to be manually added in several cases.
Alphasense should also work with vendors such as Frost & Sullivan and Science and medicine syndicated research service providers to provide more market research related reports in one place. This can offer a comprehensive view for market researchers.

Insightful reports

The ability to search for company reports, investor reports, and news separately is beneficial, in my opinion.

Some of my search results didn't yield anything and I was not sure what mistake I was making. It would be helpful if the software gave you cues on errors.

I researched specific topics like "fintech industry in the country XX" in which the tool is beneficial. It also helped me get investor reports when the company's website was down.
