The terminal is quite good in terms of data. However, the payment options are weak. Only annual subscriptions are available. In an environment with so many variables, it doesn’t provide flexibility... See more

Great Chat Support!

Very appreciative of the expertise and quick response time! I contacted Chat Support after having problems installing an Excel add-in. The agent joined almost immediately and was able to fix my problem very quickly.

Challenge Resolved

Tim at GuruFocus made an improvement I'd found an opportunity for after a couple of years working with the program right quick and did a great job! Now the line color in the custom graphs GuruFocus creates for me on demand are consistent, meaningful and valuable!

I found out you are restricting…

I found out you are restricting information which is a surprise because no other web site does it. Many people buy a web site they like and rarely change and besides everyone uses many web sites. I use it in class, we have all the information printed and besides information is everywhere, and we do not use much information to find good companies.

Gurufocus is the absolute best screener I have found!

Gurufocus is even more versatile a screener than I expected when I subscribed. I consider it essential that both technical and fundamental criteria can be applied to find your stocks.

Customer service answers fast and efficiently fixes any problems. The screener is very fast and covers the whole wide world, what I haven’t found in any other screener.

I heartily recommend their services!

Review and DCF tool

I found the website extremely helpful and rich of data organized very well graphically.
Unfortunately, I cannot afford it at this time because of the price but apart from this, it was everything fine.

The DCF calculator, according to me is the most useful tool you can have because it can be used in reverse mode to estimate the future return of a stock.

Hope to come back in a few next years

Not worth paying for

Ah no, don’t bother using the site.
All you see are ads with as little info as what you want to research on.
Then if you want more in depth analysis coming from simply wall st which they’ve copied you have to pay for it.
This is an unbiased review and I ask you to try this theory yourself. You’ll soon find out if I’m lying

I love this site

I love this site. Thank you. Just needs price point little lowered for individual investors - one more thing please make portfolio tracker aesthetics improved.

I mean fonts adjustments - and graphs and so forth. Data is great but just needs more appealing to the eye as far as appearance.

Add a colorful highlighter feature and highlighter should stick next time we log in shouldn’t go away.
Thank you.

Excellent highly valuable advisor…

Excellent highly valuable stock advisor business. Loaded with scalable tools to make trading attainable for the layman. Excellent service and the more you put into the business the more you can get out of it. Free subscription is an excellent learning experience. I’m 100%
Positive that the subscription services would be an excellent investment that pays for itself
from utilizing the advise and tools within. Another amazing perk it the affiliate opportunity.

Worth Every Penny

I have been a retail investor for 20 plus years. My professional background prior to retirement also involved financial analysis.

I have used Gurufocus for the last few years.

In my experience, Gurufocus is a case of you get what you pay for. There is a lot of 'free' information online, about companies, but usually only for 5 years of data, maybe 10 if you are lucky. Gurufocus gives you 10-15-20 years fo data, its accurate, extensive and downloadable either as a pdf, excel or csv.

The search tools are excellent and allow for comparison across multiple companies. You can carry out DCF analysis or use Gurufocus' valuation tools etc etc etc etc. You get regular updates and news via email and you can choose to follow famous investors and their trades. The customer service is excellent.

In other words, if your thinking of putting your hand in your pocket and paying for a research tool, Gurufocus is highly recommended. I consider it one of the best out there. Well worth the money
