    Cap IQ is well suited for analyzing security pricing and valuation, tracking stock performance over time, looking up comparable transactions, and analyzing valuations on an industry basis. The service is also well suited for charting and data analysis purposes.

    Comscore
    Comscore is one of the leaders in the space when it comes to cross-channel planning/reporting tools. They are priced less premium compared to other providers who have the same capabilities. I like how there is a single identifier for users where we can measure holistically across different media channels for publishers

    Comscore
    • Allows users to measure a total audience views across multiple platforms, and take those platform-specific views and convert them into a single, translatable metric.
    • The platform presents the data so that a user is not only looking and inferring action or viewership across multiple platforms but through a single identifier that clarifies or makes sense of that cross-channel data.
    • Allows you to slice up a single campaign and surmise how it will perform across various subsets of media.

    Cons
    S&P Global Inc.
    • The scope and depth of the collected data can be increased.
    • The UI with little icons and buttons may be difficult at first but may become intuitive. The UI isn't horrible but might be better.
    • Global data coverage, but US and UK markets have the greatest details. MENA and APAC lack.

    S&P CIQ Pro has great data, however, the new pro version is currently difficult to use given how slow the data is to process

    Alternatives Considered
    S&P Global Inc.
    We had Capital IQ in addition to Bloomberg. It was much easier for a new person to use Capital IQ than Bloomberg. The ease of use was a huge selling point for us. Yahoo finance on the other hand is free, but you cannot gather all the data you may need in one location like you can in Capital IQ.

    comScore Xmedia is by far the most granular and local offering. Google Analytics is a solid supplemental to the real campaign data you glean from comScore and SimilarWeb presents a nice high-level picture of the total viewership from a recurring or historical perspective.
