I have never had any issues using the product, my biggest complaint is that admins cannot change their usernames and the ones that are generated are very hard to remember.

Highly comparable. thinkorswim was a great platform and Fidelity has achieved competing against it. Ease of learning curve with training and the ability to configure exactly what the user wants to see is a huge plus. The customizations available are a major bonus and Fidelity's overall customer experience is a beacon in the marketplace.
