As an equity focused investment manager, it is a great all-in-one platform to work from. It solves all our needs for data and Excel integration, modeling, news, market research, economic research and other investment research work. If you are a day trader, its maybe not as useful, but for a manager with normal turnover, it works great

Cons
No answers on this topic
  • Excel add-in formulas are not constructed in an intuitive way and too often require assistance from help desk
  • No chat function for help desk, which means delayed assistance time or talking with non-native English speakers, some of whom can be difficult to understand
  • There should be an AI chatbot that can answer routine queries; for more advanced questions, a human rep can be connected
  • Portfolio performance metrics should be downloadable using Excel add-in rather than being available only on Workstation

We need the FactSet data and capabilities to complete 75% of the financial analyses that we complete for both internal and external purposes. It is invaluable and I am not aware of any other provider that would be able to fill this gap that FactSet does

Usability

FactSet Workstation offers a plethora of tools that I don't find I often use daily; however, the overall usability of the product is very user-friendly. As an example, I often use the search bar at the top of the workstation to find a specific metric I might need in a flash. The company frequently checks in through surveys and user feedback to identify areas where they can improve the usability and experience.

I think the data delivery could be improved, but it's a good data set.

Bloomberg has more info/data than FactSet Workstation which I pointed out earlier. To be fair, I believe Bloomberg is more expensive. Refinitiv - I have used Thomson Reuters Eikon in the past and I did not like the inflexible interface, FactSet Workstation is much more flexible. To be fair, Refinitiv may have made some upgrades since but my mental impression still lean towards FactSet Workstation because of ease of use.

  • Having a an all in one system that does everything speeds up training and learning curve for users
  • Cheaper than main competitor Bloomberg
