Alphasense is accelerating our Strategy & Intelligence capabilities
What do you like best about the product?
Relevant, quality results. I appreciate the sophisticated search functionality. I also really like the preview of each result without needing to download to view and search the report. The positive/negative connotation feature is also extremely helpful for earnings transcripts. Love the keywords hits that direct me to the relevant pages to minimize scrolling.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I receive the automated emails pertaining to my saved searches, I often end up with the same headline repeated over and over and over in one email (different articles from different searches, but SAME headline). e.g., Shell Partners with XYZ on XYZ Project. The email will come to me with that same headline repeated 10 times from 10 different sources. Suppose it's good to know that many sources are talking about same headline, but if there were some way that it could be bucketed... e.g., Headline X and there are 10 different places to read about it. Would like for Alphasense to open up doors to additional research subscriptions. e.g., if you are an Alphasense member, you can access a certain number of BNEF reports per month as a subscription benefit. Expanded access to premium content in Energy sector would continue to be huge benefit!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improving our research process. Alerts us on topics we are tracking which saves time in running searches elsewhere or monitoring 10 other platforms. Reducing time to find the information needed. Very helpful in competitive analysis / peer monitoring with the sentiment and key word abilities in earnings transcripts and reports. I really need to get our own Teams content integrated to the platform soon... would be huge boost in value!
Fantastic Experience with Stream and Highly Recommend
What do you like best about the product?
User interface and functionality of the product is great, and the tools are only getting better each month.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it had a better ratings / rankings scale so that it would be easier to read the best transcripts on a name first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Stream helps me conduct research and due diligence and research on stocks I am investigating.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Stream is a great platform, and whether you use other platforms already or not, you're almost assuredly going to get great additional value out of Stream
The Best Way to Stay on Top of An Ever increasing News Flow
What do you like best about the product?
Really enjoy how comprehensive the platform is. It's easy to setup and very intuitive/flexible.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI/UX at times can be a bit cluttered and hard to zero in on what's most important. To me, this is mostly a function of the platform having so many features, so not necessarily a bad thing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
AlphaSense helps me stay on top of my industry coverage and makes sure that I know about news/activities/developments/sentiment before my clients and competitors. This provids a significant competitive advantage in terms of being able to read the markets and stay ahead.
a go-to place for Insights
What do you like best about the product?
dashboard for monitoring and strong search function
What do you dislike about the product?
user interface can be improved to be more interactive and more user education webinar/ cases etc
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
monitoring competitive moves and information collection
Excellent filtering tool
What do you like best about the product?
I'm responsible for keeping on top of news headlines and analyst reports in my industry. The quantity of news and reports can be overwhelming at times and AlphaSense helps me filter the most important items.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting acclimated to all the functions and features takes time. However, both the sales and support team are great at answering any questions I have!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
See point 1: Too much "market noise" in terms of information, news, and reports. AlphaSense does a great job helping me filter unimportant "noise".
Very powerful search tool
What do you like best about the product?
Very advanced AI technology that allows you to search for the keywords you want from analyst reports, & market studies, including synonyms; also a great thing is that search can be conditional/correlational, (e.g. search for subject X given condition or context of B), this makes sure all results are relevant
What do you dislike about the product?
A little bit less layers of the UI would be helpful - right now the UI is very document viewer like and content-heavy, feels like a legal search software, but that is expected given the nature of the software; could have aligned a bit more with financial software like factset
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Primarily use with market research to get data points and commentary about specific products we are studying; it is helpful for us to quickly navigate what we want
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

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
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
