The advantage of having real time stock prices as well as an easy to use interface over other alternatives to Bloomberg Terminal. I also love the fact that I could log in remotely if I needed to if I was travelling abroad in a different time zone to keep up to date and be in the loop with everything to do with the markets Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If anything, the price, but as this was through work. I did prefer the Reuters 3000 Xtra system but that became obsolete a few years ago and Bloomberg Terminal is seen as the default go to system anyway. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Bloomberg Terminal is the best tool if you’re serious about trading and want to have your finger on the pulse of every market in the world.

It also lets you buy/sell stocks, options, futures, loans, and bonds directly from the terminal window by linking to JP Morgan Active Assets accounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You cannot execute trades directly through the terminal with every brokerage.

Having to use fingerprint login.

The most helpful part of a Bloomberg terminal is the ability to sift through different securities for highly accurate valuations. Being able to network for a job is also another great benefit of the terminal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The layout of a Bloomberg terminal could definitely be more user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact that it contains all the information publicly available about the whole investment universe and also its advanced and comprehensive analytical capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact that the training provided by the software is inadequate to gain the full spectrum of the analytical capabilities of the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Almost everything you could possibly need is on here. There's an army of support staff and help desk members there to help you find what you need. Once you get the hang of it, it's fairly easy to use. It also opens up with 4 different screen panels that all act independently of one another which is great for multitasking.

It's extremely expensive and security is very strict. It's easy to get locked out on it. Also not the best for working from home. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Bloomberg terminal is like on of those softwares (like Excel) that you think you know you've nailed down how to use, but you probably have not even scratched the surface. It has any data you need at your fingertips. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some people like the interface, which I have learned is an acquired skill but their interface has probably never changed in forever. Without changing it forever, they could offer more themes and UI options which could make it easier to onboard new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy navigation via keyboard shortcuts. Catches all relevant news. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Outdated user interface. It’s also not cloud based so hard to access full functionality if not by a terminal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
