FactSet
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.

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.

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.

  • 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.
