S&P Capital IQ vs. Oracle DaaS

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.

As a small company, there is a bit critical to choose Daas as the plans are high and support is available but not at that much priority. A company that wants to invest in the future can go with that. As every software has it's own pros and cons using the Oracle Daas we can build the best future sales planning and DB integration with our consumers to support worldwide level code.

• S&P Capital IQ's add-in slows down my Excel when I incorporate formulas into it.
• S&P Capital IQ's algorithms don't necessarily look in the footnotes of company filings, which can make for a less robust analysis of financials and multiples than desired.
• The user interface is not very user-friendly and thus makes maximizing the software's features difficult. It could be more intuitive to use and not so busy (e.g. not so many small icons on one web page). The S&P Capital IQ support team, however, is always available and very helpful.

Incentivized

• Prices and plans are higher not for mid level companies.
• Not supported to all programming languages.
• Need to go with more detail in user interface.
• Provide more support to customers.

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.

Better in every way, less modeled and more accurate audience segments
