Market Data Terminal Usage Optimized

Terminal usage optimization

ResearchMonitor helps to rationalize your firm’s use of market data terminals through comprehensive reporting into actual usage of these terminals. It supports you to optimize usage by accurately identifying:

• Unused subscriptions — a subscription that is not in use will be a potential candidate for removal
• Underused subscriptions — a subscription that is only used for a limited number of days is a potential candidate for sharing, removal, or moving to a more cost-effective platform

Advanced usage reporting & analytics

ResearchMonitor provides usage data and analysis at your fingertips. It includes high-level key performance indicator (KPI) dashboards and extensive drill-down functionality to the granular data and is highly customizable to support individual reporting and analysis requirements.

Usage data includes full period-on-period trend analysis to easily visualize and assess usage over time.

Track record of usage transparency & cost containment

We have a track record of over 20 years helping investment banks, retail banks, wealth management, asset managers and other financial institutions gain full transparency over their terminal usage and optimize their market data spend.

ResearchMonitor gives you immediate visibility of the actual terminal usage in your organization to allow unused subscriptions to be turned off. Underused terminals can be easily identified, allowing them to be targeted for review with users and managers.

It allows you to track the continually changing usage landscape and contain your costs.

• Cost transparency on market data terminal spend
• Cost reduction — remove or displace market data terminals
• Cost containment through reallocations

Usage & spend data combined

ResearchMonitor integrates with TRG Screen’s enterprise spend management software solution — Optimize Spend — to give you total visibility over both spend and usage.

Through our brand-new reporting & analytics platform — Optimize Insights — you are able to combine underlying data on spend and usage to provide tailored insights with powerful calls to action to help you optimize spend on market data and other information subscriptions.

Personalized dashboards allow you to maximize utilization, right-size subscription spend and improve efficiency.
