"Nexis Delivers Peace of Mind with Reliable Credit Reporting"
What do you like best about Nexis®?

Nexis and its products worked exactly like I was hoping. I was concerned about my credit report and possible fraud connected to my name/account...I wanted to learn more about what was provided on the returned report, so happy about the use and Nexis ability to mail me the results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nexis®?

I felt like the process took way too long. I was under the impression that credit reports would be mailed out relatively quickly...maybe I'm just impatient but it took at least a month or longer to ever receive anything back from Nexis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing research database"
What do you like best about Nexis®?

Nexis makes writing research invariably easier by allowing us to easily collate articles and other sensitive information in a jiffy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nexis®?

Nexis doesn't offer us live sources of their articles (i.e a public link I can show to my managers) which sometimes doubles my work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I have been a Nexis user for over 30 years"
What do you like best about Nexis®?

Nexis is very easy to use and provides me with the most up-to-date information that I need on a particular topic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nexis®?

Sometimes the Nexis support team is not able to help me with a request.

For example, if I have two requests that I need to search for, the system automatically adds the first request to the second one. In order for me to fix this, I have to log off and then log on again. When I asked a customer rep about this, they were not able to help me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

sometimes it's not 100% updated and it takes some time for new news articles to enter the search. also, it would be amazing if Nexis articles could link out to the original if i need to cite it somewhere because i can't cite nexis Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
