## Reviews

### "Very useful info packed in a poor UI" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *19 October 2021* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Factiva by Dow Jones has access to a lot of databases, news sources and generally has most of them updated in near real time.
> 
> **Cons**: Querying the data through the archaic looking UI is a bit of an painful experience. The report/data builder is very confusing and takes some effort to get to the data that you need. Even once you get the data - it opens up in a plain text format which is generally difficult to read. The newsstand is another great feature but noone can read end to end screen news in the way it opens up on their web browser. Least they could do is improve the general UI to drive consumption.

### "Très bon outil de recherche presse" — 5.0/5

> **Louise** | *27 January 2024* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Outil facile d’utilisation qui permet de rechercher de nombreuses publications de presse sur des sujets précis 
Possibilité de filtrer par année, type de publication, antériorité, etc.
> 
> **Cons**: Sur des noms de société parfois communs, de nombreux articles ressortent et il est très compliqué de savoir ceux qui parlent de la société en question
