"Streamlines Financial Screening with Ease"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Gain?

I like Gain's user-friendly interface. It helps us save time, especially when we have tight deadlines and urgent client deliverables. I appreciate the updates and Gen AI estimates, as they help us with proxy revenues and proprietary information that we use for screening deals like mergers and acquisitions or due diligence. Having updates on company deals, new filings, news updates, acquisitions, and mergers is very helpful. The AI estimates provide a sense check on small companies where information is hard to find on the web, giving insights like estimated revenue and number of employees. Also, the initial setup was pretty easy. Whenever there’s an update, we get a notification with a tutorial to help us understand the new features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gain?

Sometimes I struggle with finding financials or information for certain subsidiaries. I got in touch once before with their support, and they said they only screened the top level. So in most cases, the parent companies. And they don't focus as much on subsidiaries, sometimes minuscule slash small players. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive Platform That Keeps Us Ahead"
5/5
What do you like best about Gain?

I love Gain for its speed of response to queries, which is crucial for having client calls on short notice and quickly seeing any recent and relevant news. I also appreciate the ability to set up watchlists with predetermined filters that can save me time and remain dynamic over time. Its intuitive setup and ease of use make it very user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gain?

I think the development of an AI interface to ask questions would be welcome. Also, getting a view on which investors are likely to be interested in a certain company in a transaction would be useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive Platform with Powerful Predictive Insights"
5/5
What do you like best about Gain?

I love the predictive pieces in Gain that allow me to see an estimate on when a PE firm might be looking to exit a portfolio company; this feature has been super useful in facilitating more introductions for our services. I also find the deal-related information awesome and appreciate having contact information and news all within one easy-to-use platform. The platform is super intuitive and the initial setup was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gain?

I think being a US company, there isn't as much deal information. I think there have been inconsistencies or missing data for US deals whether pre-launch, bidding etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Comprehensive Data and Easy Setup, Awaiting More Integrations"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Gain?

I really enjoy the breadth of data that Gain.pro offers. The team is very responsive, which is great. I appreciate the good coverage of the DACH market and the European market. Having available KPIs, especially related to revenues and profitability, is very useful. I also value their strong industry classifications. The broad database enables us to filter out all relevant companies easily, focusing on profitability and size KPIs. This helps us because we have a very narrow set of criteria for relevant companies. Additionally, we switched from SourceScrub to Gain.pro because it has much better coverage of relevant metrics and companies. The market reports are much deeper, and the coverage of M&A advisers and transactions is comprehensive. The initial setup was very easy too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gain?

We currently still wait for the affinity integration, which is hopefully solved by the team soon. Currently this sis solved by manual upload, which is also great, and we appreciate that. And also, we are still waiting for the LP database. We currently do not use Gain.pro with other tools, given the lack of integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
