"Intuitive Platform, Needs Stronger Security"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Gain?

I find Gain to be a great platform, it's easy to understand, and everything is documented in a precise manner. The platform allows me to synthesize data and get a clear view of private companies quickly. I appreciate that there's no major hassle or need for Flex, searching, or third-party resources. The new AI feature that provides a summary whenever I log into a private company’s website is particularly useful and gives me a boost. Plus, the initial setup was very easy for our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gain?

I think the login and security features could be improved. It would be great if they added two-factor authentication. 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.

"Streamlines Company Research with an Intuitive UI"

5/5

What do you like best about Gain?

I use Gain.pro for company research, fairs, and finding competitors. I like how it quickly sources local registry filings and saves a significant amount of time. The user interface and ease of use are great, and pulling financials is very efficient; the exported financial excel is extremely useful. The initial setup of Gain.pro was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gain?

The coverage of companies. Finding competitors is not as intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gain solving and how is that benefiting you?

"Good intelligence platform for EU"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Gain?

Intuitive interface, easy to navigate

Good coverage of Germany, Benelux, Italy and Nordics

Ideal to get the first level of information of a (private) company business and financials, much faster and intuitive than going on some kind of national registry Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gain?

Quite a pricy solution, I wish they had cheaper plans with more limited access (e.g. I do not care about credit funds, happy to drop that if makes it cheaper) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Research Analyst, Consulting"

5/5

What do you like best about Gain?

Gain.pro pulls together information for company profiles in one spot: Location, business activities, ownership, financials in a one-stop-shop fashion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
