Factiva vs EMIS (ISI Emerging Markets): Which is better and why?

Factiva and EMIS both are information aggregators. Which one is better and why?

I am trying to choose between them for market research on emerging markets particularly about the financial sector in Africa and South-East Asia.

      Factiva vs EMIS (ISI Emerging Markets)

      Factiva 

      I had the opportunity to use Factiva some time ago for a project. I would say I found it very economical and useful in terms of the information it provided. They have a subscription to a large number of paid sources, particularly market/industry news.

      Factiva claims that 60% of their information is not found on the web for free. I do not know if it still the case but they claimed to have access to 32,000 sources. So that means that around 19k sources would be paid.

      EMIS (ISI Emerging Markets)

      I did use ISI during my university study. They had some coverage which I did not found in Factiva, e.g. Oxford Economics.

      They claim to have great coverage of emerging markets. I did not particularly found any reliable emerging markets sources there.

      One thing which I did not like about EMIS was that they have a large number of low-quality market research publishers. Some of the data from those publishers are quite misleading.

      I would suggest to ask them about the particular sources you are interested to see if they have access. Alternatively, you can ask them to send the list of their sources and cross-compared them for your research needs.

      Google is the best place for market researchers. Google has now so many excellent operators that it can help find most of the stuff quite efficiently.

      FT Confidential is also pretty good particularly for South-East Asia, though very expensive. But it all comes to what exact information you are looking for and is it available for free or can be provided by Factiva/EMIS.
