    Dataminr
    For any news editor, Dataminr is a must. It is the only platform I have used which I would 100 percent recommend to anyone who needs constant access and notification to all that is going on in the world's media. Various other platforms provide information, but Dataminr collates all these other platforms together into one easy to use interface. It is remarkably quick to check Dataminr after receiving a desktop or email notification and find out what is going on regarding a specific subject. As a news editor, I am required to manage a news team that produces copy for breaking stories, and Dataminr allows me to find news and commission it faster than any other platform I have previously used.

    NameScan
    In our specific case, NameScan is an interesting piece of software for administratively verifying the identity of those who have to enroll in courses or discuss a Thesis. The fact that NameScan can be integrated with other software (anti-plagiarism, for example, Turnitin) guarantees greater use efficiency. In this case, the integrated verification of identity and possible plagiarism helps us significantly limit fraud.

    Pros
    Dataminr
    • Collating various sources into one interface makes keeping track of breaking news remarkably easy.
    • The live update feature means updates from breaking stories are fed directly to the consumer. This means users do not have to go out their way to find out every last detail of a story, and can instead use their time writing the story.

    Cons
    Dataminr
    • Setting up Dataminr can be relatively obtuse. Although basic functions are easy to use, the more in-depth aspects require research and training to use correctly.
    • Topics are very broad, which can be a negative at times. It would be useful to have 'football' as a topic rather than 'sport', for instance.

    NameScan
    • The software still generates confusion, especially in the case of Asian names, often repetitive or similar to each other. In this case, the information it returns is not very accurate.
    • The numerous integrative databases that can be purchased are really very expensive.
    • NameScan is graphically unintuitive.

    Dataminr
    Connection issues/downtime occur but they are rare and generally quickly fixed. There are frequent seminars and tutorials to teach the platform. This is an excellent decision from the company and has made me more willing to learn how to use Dataminr correctly. As a result of this, I use the platform more than I would have if I had been forced to learn everything myself.

    Alternatives Considered
    Dataminr
    Before using Dataminr we did not use a similar platform, with stories discovered by simply crawling the web (TweetDeck/Reddit/news sites, etc). Because of this, Dataminr has been a game-changer for us and has revolutionized the way we have worked since it was introduced. Being able to completely remove one aspect of the job (searching for news) has increased productivity in all other areas.

    NameScan well integrated with our existing system, with less false positives results, where as with AuditGenius we get search results are not that great & sanctions list such as WorldCompliane, Dow Jones not up to mark, we have also issues with integration with our system . NameScan also offer us best competitive price .

    Return on Investment
    Dataminr
    • Since starting to use Dataminr, our traffic has vastly increased. Though not entirely to thank for the growth, Dataminr has played a role in talkSPORT.com's ComScore increasing by 150 percent over the past 18 months.
    • Increased traffic is partly due to producing more content, and Dataminr has directly led to discovering a number of stories we previously would have missed.

    NameScan
    • It allowed us to limit the admission of non-welcome people to the University.
    • It has allowed us to limit the number of frauds in the context of thesis discussions, especially doctoral ones.
    • NameScan has become fundamental in our university's internalisation to verify, in particular, people arriving from countries at risk.
