Integration with MS Powerpoint is one of my first recommendations, it is an advance to be able to integrate FactSet with other products to be able to expand the capacity of accounting departments. The scalability of FactSet is amazing and is related to its integration plugins. The ROI achieved through FactSet also continues to motivate me to recommend it.

If a client is shy about investing or wants portfolio comparisons, Morningstar really hits the mark. Being able to show real-time data is great for putting a client's mind at ease. The downside to this product is, that if a client isn’t as financially literate, it takes some explaining to show them what’s going on, and they can get lost in all of the data.

In terms of diversity, Morningstar is the best on the market. The way they display data, and since many financial institutions use this software, it is easy to show clients how their money is doing outside of our institution. Also allows us to show portentously clients in-depth comparisons of different investment strategies.
