BamSEC vs. Refinitiv Eikon

other than being essentially unusable on mobile/tablet, BamSec is second to none when it comes to efficiently searching through filings and transcripts. really like how it pre-sorts all a company's documents into PRs, 8-Ks, proxies, trancripts, 10-K/-Q, et cetera we also like that you can use screening function that enables searches across multiple companies or company lists
