Overall Satisfaction with AlphaSense
We use AlphaSense primarily to aggregate, categorize, sort, and prioritize incoming news/PR/sell-side notes/etc. Lately have been also using it more and more for our lookback searches too and starting to play with the integrations in the hope of fixing our SharePoint woes. We probably use it overall less than BamSEC or Bloomberg or just Google search, but it meets the use case of being able to feed different sources and filter by source, theme, keywords, etc.
- Tagging
- Smart search
- Alerts
- Team sharing

- make entitlements easier to transfer/manage - A MUST - FactSet who is their service provider for this does it so...
- email alerts
- mobile app
- AMR research
- Team integration
- better use of time for research
- Less effort keeping track of incoming news
- Fixing our unorganized SharePoint (just connect to SharePoint and search on AlphaSense)
Rather than changing how we perform on that task (huge part of our job) it's instead freed us to also devote time and attention to other stuff.
Before AS, keeping tabs on our space was a full time job. Now we get to do our full time jobs (where keeping up to date is necessary but by no means sufficient)
They are all unique and we actually still use them all. But if we had to pick one (minus the obvious lack of financial data...) it's AlphaSense because of how much easier it is to use. The others are worse at getting documents and even snippets Out, and then have much worse markup/bookmark, etc capabilities
