How to choose
Which research features should I compare?
Start with the work you need to do: compare company financials, screen equities, review earnings estimates or read research reports.
Check market coverage and data freshness alongside those features. A platform's fit depends on whether its coverage and update pace match the companies and markets you follow.
How can I compare platform costs?
Check the free-plan and free-trial details, then compare the paid starting price where one is listed. Pricing may instead be available on request.
Equibles offers a free plan, with paid access beginning at $9.99 monthly. CFRA Research shows pricing on request alongside a 14-day trial, while EquityRT starts at $294 per user monthly and also has a 14-day trial.
Where can I use the platform?
Check the web, iOS, Android, Windows, macOS and API indicators to see which options fit your devices and integrations.
For instance, FactSet Workstation lists web, Windows, iOS and Android. FINVIZ lists web access.
Does it offer an API or open-source code?
Use the API and open-source marks to check whether a platform offers a public API or code you can inspect or modify. A public API can let other software connect to a platform; open-source code is available under a licence.
Check the licence terms before relying on open-source code, and confirm that any API supports the connection you need.
