ECOS vs. FactSet Workstation vs. WealthBlock

I give 8 out of ten because the referral percentage is less than 10 percent, it should be 15 until 20 percent. The other are all OK, for the service and withdrawal is very good system. The program duration also good, not too long, so we can expect the return of our investment in a manner time frame

FactSet works for all my IR needs. I do not see a function for which I use it for that it would be less appropriate. I believe that the tool's efforts towards becoming more integrated with AI are strong and that in time the Mercury offering will be just as competitive as some of the other AI offerings out there today such as AlphaSense

Great for VC, PE, and RE firms. I-banks and brokers should use it, as well, to scale. Cost might be too high for startups or sporadic fundraisers who don't need an ongoing tool.

We need the FactSet data and capabilities to complete 75% of the financial analyses that we complete for both internal and external purposes. It is invaluable and I am not aware of any other provider that would be able to fill this gap that FactSet does

It does everything I need. It is pretty user friendly and easy to work with whatever technology interface I am using (desk top, notebook, tablet, or mobile phone). I am able to get work done whether I am in the office, at home, or traveling. The user up time is very good. They are rarely doing maintenance when I need to use the platform

I think the data delivery could be improved, but it's a good data set.

Nice Hash is also a good business, but it is different from ECOS. The Nice Hash is only a broker while ECOS is a mining company, so if I may choose, I rather choose ECOS because it is easy for the investor to gain ROI. Nice Hash requires too many technical skills.

Product is magnitudes more affordable and provides 80% of the functionality that Bloomberg has and is working to build out the remaining. The workstation is more user friendly than bloomberg but still not perfect. Not as robust as a Bloomberg Terminal and doesn't have the chat/trading features.

WealthBlock comes with its native CRM, dataroom, investor onboarding, etc. Compared to other individual tools, WealthBlock provides a seamless one-stop solution for all parties involved in the process.

• ROI is very good, around 55 percent for 24 months.
• The higher you invest, the higher ROI you can get.
• Many people still do not believe this is a legitimate company.

• hard to quantify, bc i havent brought any new business bc of it, so the ROI would be 0%. I use other systems for proposals.
• However, I use it for everyday work and equity/fi analysis and portfolio construction research at ticker level, and that part works 100%.
