"YCharts is a game changer"

5/5

What do you like best about YCharts?

There are three main benefits that I get out of YCharts:

1. The dashboards put relevant information in front of me without needing to run multiple programs or keep multiple windows open.

2. Clean User Interface: YCharts UI is much cleaner than Morningsar or Kwanti. I use YCharts every day, and a clean UI is important to me. Their UI also makes onboarding simple.

3. Efficient Research: YCharts has many facets. Being able to research and perform due diligence on one platform has boosted efficiency in my practice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about YCharts?

It's hard to find something to dislike about YCharts. If I could add two things, it would be:

1. Adding an Excel plugin for Mac users.

2. Adding an Altruist integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Client Interactions: My clients love YCharts. Whether I'm talking about a portfolio or a specific security, YCharts has clean outputs that help my clients understand what's happening with their money. The "Stress Test" module helps me and my clients understand the risks associated with their portfolio during different market environments. The custom reports help me put the most relevant information in front of clients, instead of overloading them with information. Talking points have helped me hone in on a specific attribute of a client's portfolio.

Slide Decks: YCharts periodically publishes slide decks tailored to the questions investors currently have. The tariff slide deck helped me bring insights to my clients in a time of uncertainty.

Support: As a solo advisor, YCharts customer support is a game-changer. If I need help creating a chart, fund screen, or updating a proposal, YCharts support is there to help within seconds. No need to call in and wait on hold, their staff is available through direct message in the YCharts program.

Portfolio Management: Fund screens, weekly performance emails, technical charts, correlation analysis, and much more - all in one place. I have all of the information I need to create and manage models. YCharts is essential for my practice as I manage my own portfolios. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Y Charts: A Powerful, Invaluable Analytical and Marketing Tool"

5/5

What do you like best about YCharts?

Y Charts is a powerful analytical and marketing tool, and it has become invaluable in my practice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about YCharts?

YCharts is expensive and definitely comes with a learning curve. While there are good resources available to help you get up to speed, the platform still isn’t very intuitive to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I use it for client presentations, portfolio analysis, and preparing client performance reports and transition analysis. It’s also helpful for integrating with Virgl and Raymond James. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive Charts and Y AI Agent That Saves Us So Much Time"

5/5

What do you like best about YCharts?

The detail, charts, and due diligence that YCharts provides in a very intuitive way is excellent. And I'm in love with 'Y', its AI agent. It has started to save me SO MUCH time and will allow us to provide better service and insights to our clients without adding a huge amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about YCharts?

If there could be fewer clicks to get to some things, like commonly used items such as Tear Sheets. We all get used to using what we use, and if those items could be 'bookmarked' and easier to repeatedly access that would be great. But again, 'Y' is starting to do some of that for me assuming I provide the correct 'ask'. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Quickly researching, comparing, analyzing investments. Creating, monitoring and adjusting portfolios. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Huge Upgrade for ETF Research and Branded Client Portfolio Reports"

5/5

What do you like best about YCharts?

We used to use Morningstar Workstation, and YCharts was a huge upgrade. It is way more compressive for research on ETFs (as well as mutual funds and stocks) and the markets. It's pretty remarkable what you have at your fingertips. You can customize your Dashboard experience for how you work and what is important for you. And we are just scratching the surface for YCharts capabilities. Additionally, the private branding on custom YCharts (logo and contact info) portfolio reports for clients is a huge advantage for Client Approved reports. YCharts allows us to identify all portfolio metrics from asset allocation to risk metrics, which we use in portfolio construction and management as an RIA. You can easily analyze client and prospective client portfolios, even upload a statement for easy analysis. This is especially helpful for required 401(k) Rollover analysis. YCharts is a must for investment professionals and they are always adding new features. Customer Support is top-notch and YCharts offers scheduled tutorial training classes to really maximize your experience. It is user-friendly and easy to implement in your daily routines and investment management practice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about YCharts?

We update and archive our Model Portfolio Reports monthly. And while you can run them on month-end dates, with month-end data, the reports currently only show the date you run them on. If you want your report to be as of month-end, you have to run the report on that specific date. Otherwise, if you run the report on say January 3, it will show January 3 and not as of month-end or year-end as intended. I am told YCharts is working on this. YCharts listens to feedback and is always quick to respond. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

YCharts helps greatly in our Client Communications with the custom Allocation Insight reports we created to replace Morningstar's Snapshots. Like I mentioned above, we get to brand the reports with our logo and contact information. Internally, YCharts is one of our main hubs for market and ETF investment research, as well as asset allocation construction and ongoing management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Organized Data, Clear Portfolio Visualization, and Fast Support"

5/5

What do you like best about YCharts?

the way the data is organized helps me to easily show clients where they have been and what's been going on.

It's also easy to visualize portfolio construction to see potential performance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about YCharts?

Have not run into anything that is a true 'negative' about it. simple, direct, easy to use and the support is quick and direct Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Y-Charts helps me to visualize my clients' portfolios, see what's been going on and helps me to create portfolios by letting me see not only performance but a deep dive into what's actually going on. things like internal expenses. overlap, risk assessment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"All-In-One Solution with Intuitive Interface"

5/5

What do you like best about YCharts?

I use YCharts to accurately track my team's model portfolio performance over time, including quarterly changes, which was something we couldn't do before. I appreciate how YCharts makes it super easy to research securities and potential changes in an intuitive, user-friendly place. It's very simple to use but can also go very deep for those who need it, a balance they've struck well. I also like that they're always releasing new updates and features and are open to feedback and questions. Having everything in one place has greatly consolidated our workflows. The platform's intuitive nature made the initial setup very easy, and with the guidance during onboarding, it didn't take me long to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about YCharts?

Their portfolio comparison reports are pretty complex and less easy-to-understand for clients than Nitrogen Wealth. YCharts' reports are really good for deep dives, but there's just too much technical info and nothing easy to grasp things like Nitrogen's Risk Score for a client. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

"Great Tool for Fund Research, Pricing Too High for Individuals"

4/5

What do you like best about YCharts?

I use YCharts to research mutual funds, and I love how it puts everything in one place, so I don't have to look in a hundred different places. The one-stop information gathering is fantastic, and the screeners help me find the mutual funds I'm interested in very quickly. It's great for finding mutual funds that continue to go up even when the market is falling. The initial setup was very easy, and I really appreciate the customer service reps at YCharts chat who were great to deal with and quickly answered all of my questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about YCharts?

I don't like that YCharts' price point. The features are tailored towards investment advisors with many clients, which doesn't suit me as an individual investor with zero clients. So I am paying for features that a professional advisor would utilize. I'd appreciate a cheaper package for individual investors like me. Also, I wish the trading data for the day was available earlier after the market closes for the day, as this would be really helpful. What I was recently told was the data for the day would be available after 2 am of the following day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I find YCharts centralizes data for mutual funds, so I don't need to search multiple sites. The screeners quickly identify funds that perform well even during market downturns, saving me time and effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful Investment Research with Ease"

5/5

What do you like best about YCharts?

I use YCharts for my investment research and monitoring, and it solves the ease of compiling data and analytics of various investments or portfolios in a clear and concise way. I really enjoy the ease of use and broad chassis that YCharts offers. Specifically, I use the quickflow single and comparison features quite frequently. Another powerful tool I utilize is the fund screener to search for other investments not yet discovered. The initial setup was seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about YCharts?

The filters in the screener can sometimes be confusing along with the different metrics to choose from. The integration to Albridge is currently not supported. Auto benchmark creation is an important feature YCharts does not yet offer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient, Intuitive, and Client-Focused"

5/5

YCharts has become an important part of our technology stack, and we appreciate the depth of resources it provides to support our work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about YCharts?

The only challenge is keeping pace with ongoing updates and ensuring best practices for utilizing the full suite of tools. We also encounter some limitations when representing more complex or non-traditional asset classes, such as options or private alternatives. That said, we’re confident in YCharts and their continued commitment to innovation, and we expect these areas to improve as the platform evolves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
