Usability

The excellent algorithm helps to navigate well and avoid clutter from searches, features like the strength of data, searching within, data period, etc., all assist in smart searches and save the fatigue from multiple searches. Building dashboards is a great way to keep on top of ongoing projects; all info is available in one location. I also learned a couple of ways I can patch my internal data on the platform to build a story.

AlphaSense Market Intelligence

Yes, the impact has been huge. All the unproductive searches for info have come to a stop, and navigating through sponsored hits and irrelevant content has come to an end. Moreover, we have tons of great, relevant, pre-curated content per your industry and country on their repository. The user interface and other VAS on the platform make it easy to come back to your content, be on top of your content, and share content. The customer support is very prompt, and multiple ways you can interact with the team.

Alternatives Considered

Crunchbase, PitchBook and D&B Hoovers

They are all good but address only one specific data need, like some of them are super on the startups, news, deals, funding data, etc. Some of them have excellent company profiles and financial information. But I consider them bits and pieces, while Alphasense has a variety of AI-powered content that makes it easy and a one-stop solution.

Likelihood to Recommend

Some of the tools like creating my own report, sharing content with colleagues, saving searches, etc. are great features. Onboarding was a challenge, and getting used to the search functionality is a bit complex for beginners, better onboarding will ensure the platform is well utilized.
