"Game-changer"
What do you like best about Macrobond?

Allows to seamlessly import extensive Bloomberg data into Macrobond, conduct sophisticated analyses, and create dynamic charts that automatically update with the latest data, ensuring that insights are always accurate and timely.

Invaluable for sharing data-driven ideas, minimizing manual errors, and enhancing collaboration, ensuring that all team members stay aligned despite geographic and time zone differences.

It's been a game-changer for me and my team and for the wider business. Utilized every single day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Macrobond?

Takes some time getting used to the platform in general and can be arduous creating complex charts (no more than excel though), but once one chart is created in a specific way, you can replicate it easily for limitless other data sets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Biggest productivity gain in Macro research of my career"
What do you like best about Macrobond?

The integration with powerpoint and excel has made refreshing client pitch decks a matter of minutes rather than hours. The help desk is great too - adding new data sources when we make requests within a few days. Making less need for webscraping on our side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Macrobond?

Few i can think of, probably the integration with Bloomberg could be faster or more detailed (you have to manually type every ticker rather than have it listed as a source in their data library tree - but I would bet that's more a Bloomberg issue than Macrobond).

"Quick for charting data"
What do you like best about Macrobond?

The ease of finding most economic data for pratically all countries on GDP, CPI and more Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Macrobond?

Sometimes I find it difficult to chart data that I don't want to show as a simple line over time, for example I can't choose to have a different value on the X axis other than datetime objects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Macrobond has a wide variety of overall statistics, but limited data on indivual companies and equities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for creating and automating charts"

Quick and easy to create simple visualisations, good detailed database. Integration with powerpoint, excel and bloomberg are very useful - I tend to use it every day. Easy to reformat and share charts in different ways. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Occasionally find errors or missing data, but support team are generally responsive in updating or checking. Can be a bit of a learning curve for creating more complex analysis or visualisations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"great tool for all our macro data needs, easy to navigate"
What do you like best about Macrobond?

the way data is organized is super helpful. recent improvements in chart creation helped a lot in creating formal charts. ability to format, add statistical functions, using averages and other functions, import data via APIs makes it very easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Macrobond?

some financial data does not get updated every day, rather they send one update per week for entire previous week, maybe should make updates more frequent especially when data is already available on other sources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great application for Macro Research"

"Macrobond is a very powerful market data tool"
What do you like best about Macrobond?

What I like most is the concept of creating a chart and having it update itself each time. It is a very useful time saver and relatively easy to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Macrobond?

What I like the least is that there are many public data sources that cannot be integrated into the tool. I also don't like that there are complex functions, very useful on the other hand, difficult to use for an average user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
