Likelihood to Recommend Prior to adopting Cronycle, our research team had a variety of different ways in which they would discover, store and share information. These methods were often inconsistent, with many smaller teams or sub-groups of researchers operating independently of others. In many cases, content that was potentially useful to more than one colleague was not being shared at all. We had thousands of different sources, accessed through varying methods and stored in different locations/systems, and very few colleagues would have had an idea of which sources other team members were using. Furthermore, we became aware as a team that while between us we were pulling in a lot of information, much of what was being discovered was not necessarily being acted upon, or indeed being read by the colleague to whom it was most relevant. We also needed to become more targeted, and indeed more selective, in the information we were seeing, and Cronycle -specifically through the Sources Library, the Feeds, and the tagging and notification functionality - has enabled us to do just this. There has been a genuinely transformative outcome to our information gathering ability, borne out by specific metrics, which Cronycle has also provided us with via the Enterprise account.
Read full review Very likely to recommend to a colleague if he deals with researching companies on a day-to-day basis since it captures real-time market data, financial information such as income statements and balance sheet items, as well as news items around strategic updates and analyst reports from top investment banks.

Read full review Cons For some reason logging on for a few months does not go as easy as usual, because nowadays I need a least two attempts to log in. I think I do only use the core functionality of Cronycle: getting indication info by keywords via multiple sites. Vice versa: if people come to me with a suspected issue, I double-check via Cronycle by entering that issue as search in found results. A low occurrence often indicates the suspected issue likely is not so severe. Read full review Not very easy to navigate - needs user to spend time. Should have an intelligent search option to enable targeted search. Should have more granular coverage in terms of financials. Read full review Support Rating Any issues with the platform have always been resolved quickly. I have never previously worked with a third party software provider whose support team is as responsive.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Hootsuite publication prep and scheduling is great, better than Cronycl (a manual process) Cronycl management of feeds, filtering creation of topical boards are excellent,
Hootsuite doesn't offer this. Cronycle I find it easier, more attractive, and better filtering than Buffer, though Buffer was slightly better at the publication prep.
