Chose Contify
Contify allows customization and helps me develop my own watchlist where I can just add a bunch of companies to different lists and it'll start tracking them for me, it will also allow me to structure the dashboard as per my business hierarchy whereas, Crayon is focused more …
Contify has provided my organization with powerful features increasing market intelligence by offering email alerts, user management, taxonomy generator, and custom feeds that help us make informed decisions. It increases the capacity for in-depth investigation starting from …
Prior to Contify, we didn't have the insight that we do. With a lack of time, we were unable to collect the competitor data and updates as doing it in-house is a nightmare. If you were to manually track all information, updates, social media, etc., so much of your time would be …
Contify has the most helpful feature. It enables me to
search for competitors on various websites and social media. Almost all of the
information we need is readily available to us. We get actionable intelligence
Each of the tools I have described share the same kind of premise: the main thing they do is source and collect media content. Then to varying degrees they run filters against this content and produce a range of data visualisations and ways of slicing the data and content. …
I have used Lexis Nexus and Thomson One. I find Factiva to be the most user friendly of these services. I much prefer Factiva's layout on their website when I search for articles and I also prefer its search builder over Lexis Nexus and Thomson One.
At the time, Factiva was already being used by the company I worked for - they had developed procedures specifically for using Factiva, so there wasn't really an option. I've used Lexis, Westlaw and Bloomberg exclusively for legal research, so there wasn't really an overlap …
In terms of features, Contify is the best. It is used to locate competitors across a variety of web properties and social media platforms. It uses AI to track information on customers, competitors, and other industry segments. Another benefit I've found is their analyst team's willingness and ability to develop specific taxonomies for my industry. It enables us to collect and share data across the company. I believe that automatic tagging is still a viable option for learning and can be made even more effective.
Factiva is particularly useful when I work on securities litigations involving shareholder lawsuits -- i.e. shareholders who bought and sold shares during a specified class period when the company was misrepresenting, for example, its financials. Specifically Factiva is quite useful in helping me understand what company events were known by the market and when they were known. Factiva has also been useful in helping me on various research studies. It is less relevant for other types of litigation that I work on (i.e. Patent litigation, etc).
Contify is the competitive intelligence system that we trust because it is a fully customizable platform that meets the requirements of my company, it is a solution that provides a quality service with numerous resources and a unique user experience, in addition to offering a robust interface and simple use its characteristics take all the credit.
Contify has provided my organization with powerful features increasing market intelligence by offering email alerts, user management, taxonomy generator, and custom feeds that help us make informed decisions. It increases the capacity for in-depth investigation starting from intelligence, it is a wonderful tool that offers success because it is Unequivocal, simple and deliberate.
Each of the tools I have described share the same kind of premise: the main thing they do is source and collect media content. Then to varying degrees they run filters against this content and produce a range of data visualisations and ways of slicing the data and content. Factiva's strength lies more in the sourcing of content than in the manipulation of the results (much like the others do with more sophisticated dashboards and visual interpretations). We chose it because of the integrity of its sourcing breadth. It doesn't matter so much about the display of results because the source material you're working with isn't as dynamic as say social media.
