Overall Satisfaction with AlphaSense

I use AlphaSense to research competitors and peer companies. I look for information about contract awards, company culture, executive moves, BD and capture staff transitions, strategic plans, changes in strategic direction and company performance if public.

Pros

  • The new AI capability rocks!
  • Expert Interviews are very helpful. i love the new focus on them.
  • The staff is outstanding in terms of proactive training and support

Cons

  • The AI capability took care of my issues with finding content
  • I'll get back to you
  • deeper competitive insights
  • more informed decisions
  • information on new markets that was either time-consuming to find other places or not available or both. The coverage of New Space is second to none
  • insight into company directions from insights into the leadership, culture and priorities
The AI engine greatly improved the usability for me. The training is excellent. Expert Talks are a huge discriminator as is the coverage of new markets. Don't listen to anyone who tells you to build profiles. Of course, you could, but TBR does a good job of that, and they don't do all the things I just mentioned. Profiles are very labor intensive to keep up to date. Keep spending your money on Expert Talks, reports we don't find elsewhere, the AI engine, new markets.
Insight into competitors' performance and culture that influence bid content. Insight into what competitors and the market think of my company and how we can respond or not - see if our strategies are validated. Support for M&A targets and ELT/SLT insight into competitors and peers so that we can match or mitigate their strategies.
I use TBR for totally different research. I use them for news about corporate direction, investment in technologies and executive leadership changes; M&A and corporate ventures; technology partnerships; and recent contract awards.
AlphaSense gives deeper insights with Expert Talks, exclusive research and the AI engine that finds everything.

Would you buy AlphaSense again?

AlphaSense is well suited to researching companies, trends, and issues to support strategic planning. It is very good for competitive analysis in terms of corporate direction and culture, insight into the scope of contracts and what the winning company says about them, and background and competitors for new markets like New Space. The Executive Talks are incredibly helpful and an AlphaSense exclusive. Don't use it for tracking opportunities -- there are many companies who do that but don't do what AlphaSense does.
