Lexis Search Advantage vs. Tettra

It is good for researching previous news stories on a subject and it can be helpful for tracking down people and their biographical information. If you're looking for academic studies on a subject, this is not the best place to go in my opinion. It is also not always current with addresses and phone numbers.

Tettra is well suited as a repository for company information but can get cluttered quickly if used more broadly and dynamically. It is helpful for documents with wide permissions, and for disseminating information that’s owned by specific people.

It's been several years since I called for help but when I did, Lexis was very helpful.

I base the rating on the online availability of the help system. The product is quite intuitive but the questions I did have were answered on the online help. That is always better than having to contact support as then you have to wait longer than just a search on the website.

Lexis is much more refined in its results. I use it because it is a newsroom standard and it is what is provided by the company.

Both products are comparable. our company allows a certain number of similar products, so we use both for different teams.
