NewsTrade and NewsWatch

[cashonly]

Is anyone familiar with either of these products:

NewsTrade http://www.acquiremedia.com/newstrade_home.shtml

or

NewsWare http://www.newsware.com/

If so, can you give me your opinion of them?

Thanks,

Cash

I tried these 2 products approx 1 year ago. I ran them side by side, and both were identical in terms of speed. Each one has there own unique bells and whistles, but at the end of the day there wasn't much to choose between the two platforms.

Pro - It was nice to consolidate newsfeeds and have alerts for all the feeds that you subscribe to.
Con - At the time, they didn't offer a feed to Bloomberg, and I believe the Reuters feed was delayed.

Not sure if anything has changed over the last year or so.

Good Luck!
