What do you dislike about YCharts?

There is nothing I dislike about using the program at all. Unfortunately, I have not signed into the program recently so my account is locked at the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is an important program to use when conducting investment research. The data is reliable and in an easy to read format so it is simple to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about YCharts?

Stock screening tools worthy of professional stockpickers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about YCharts?

Data visualisation tends to be a little jarring on the eye. The sharp contrast colours and slightly pixelly graphics are typical for stock charts but although they are precise, they don't make it easy to look at for hours on end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Access to some of the features of a far more expensive system for a much lower price; ability to quickly source and present data to back up a story or point of view; starting point for original research. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
