I like how you can filter results by time period. I like how articles are retrieved from various news wires and not just the major outlets (AP, UPI). > > **Cons**: Often the same news story is displayed in the results, sometimes with minor updates. This can slow down compiling a bibliography, in that you need to weed out repetitious articles. > > I was involved in a project to search for negative news stories for businesses that submitted themselves for an annual award. These were smaller, regional businesses. We used LexisNexis Newsdesk to search for articles related to the businesses. We used multiple negative search terms (e.g., lawsuit, bankruptcy, corrupt, trial) combined with the names of the businesses to try and locate negative articles about the businesses competing for the annual award. ----- ### "LexisNexis Newsdesk is a cut above the rest\!" — 5.0/5 > **Paul** | *18 June 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: LexisNexis Newsdesk aggregates open Web content into one convenient portal that is easily distributed, analysed and visualised. Our communication departments stay in the know, find news quickly, share current awareness where we need it the most and monitor trends with ease. This enables us to identify insights and take action in a proactive manner. It enables intuitive data visualisation that is easy to understand and present. > > **Cons**: The software has a steep learning curve, but tutorials and the help settings clear up any ambiguity. > > Our overall experience with LexisNexis Newsdesk is highly positive. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this to professionals who would be interested in this service. ----- ### "Newsdesk is very good, the system is easy to use and helps us to monitor media effectively." — 5.0/5 > **John** | *5 April 2018* > > **Pros**: It is user-friendly such that it's very easy to setup searches and alerts / newsletters. It has a useful help page that shows us all the Boolean operators so we can finetune our searches. It has a very wide news and publication coverage around the world, which is good when you need to monitor a wide range of issues/news. It's search engine is effective and can search out relevant articles using keywords that we are looking for. I like that there is no limit to the number of articles you can search. > > **Cons**: The system can be costly as you need to pay to search for articles beyond 90 days (and even then there's a limit as to how far back you can search), and if you wish to have many newsletters (above the basic number) to send articles to your users. There's also a limit of 25 max licensed articles that you can send the full text on email. ----- ### "Lexis Nexis always does it\!" — 4.0/5 > **CD** | *6 April 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's a Lexis Nexis Product which is a well-known system and interface. I have used Lexis for years, and I trust the brand enough to experiment with their new products. I like this one. Allows you to remain abreast of news and trends across the internet relating to your business or subject. > > **Cons**: Lexis will cost you. Point Blank Period . Although it's worth every penny. It will cost you a few pennies.. > > This allows you to remain abreast of news and trends across the internet relating to your business or area of expertise. ----- ### "LEXISnEXIS" — 5.0/5 > **Ilan** | *28 August 2019* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is hard to imagine research without Lexis, this is an essential part of my research and through the many years I have been using it the database continues to improve. > > **Cons**: I think that the one element that still needs improvement is the search option between the different parts of lexis. > > I love it. It is a great database that makes my life easier. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/191607/lexisnexis-newsdesk?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/191607/lexisnexis-newsdesk) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | ----- ## Structured Data
