InfoPro Home > Training & Tutorials > Research Tips Company Research Continued.This week I want to talk about another favorite source for looking for information about a company. Company Analyzer is another favorite source that I use when looking for a needle in a haystack. Company Analyzer searches across 36 sources covering legal, company and financial, market and industry, and public records information for a company. All with one search! I recommend searching all of the sources that are checked since the cost is the same whether I search one or all sources. I can decide how many results I would like to retrieve for each of the sources searched, from 10 to 250. I can also decide to search with a date restriction. If I decide on a date restriction, I need to be sure to select a higher number of results to be sure that I retrieve the best results. Let’s search for “gaggle”. The results come back quickly because there is not a lot of information. Quickly I can determine that there are 4 companies with the word “gaggle” in their name. I can now “Focus” on the company I am interested in. Or, I can simply select the correct company by placing a checkmark in the box to the left of the results I want to be included in the report I generate after selecting “Generate Report”. Using Company Analyzer, I have quickly and cost effectively found information on the company I was searching. Company Analyzer can be found by following the path: Legal>Reference>Analyzer>Company
