JPThe company valuation that OSV provides… The company valuation that OSV provides is very useful and unique. Maybe that alone is worth the money. However, there are other services that provide similar quantitative valuation, and more information on top of it. OSV, in contrast, have not developed/expanded beyond valuation in the past years. I would like to see them expand the universe of stocks covered, provide data on guru holdings, especially prominent value investors, and insider buying/selling. With some expansion into those areas, OSV would be much more attractive in my mind.

GBSpreadsheet User Spreadsheet and database are very useful in evaluations. Only issues are: - 1-2 week delay between company's quarterly releases and financial update availability. - Numerous inconsistencies in financial data; sum of quarters not equal to full year for some categories; 10-Q and 10-K data not always put in "buckets" in a consistent manner. Assume these shortcomings are from your data provider.

GBOSV: Great Visualization Tool I like OSV. It's not the only tool I use to evaluate investments but it definitely builds a good foundation. More than anything, I like the visualization of all the fundamental data and the long time horizons. It really allows you to grasp the big picture of where a stock is with regard to its valuation. Similarly, the inclusion of metrics such as CRIOC, ROIC, FCF, Owner Earnings, and others that you usually wouldn't find in a company's reports allow for a lot more insight than the average person would find.

PHThe best stock analysis tool I've ever… The best stock analysis tool I've ever used. It's not for beginners so you should know the terminologies and what the valuation methods are used for. Other than that it's easy to use, fast & they have the most accurate data on par with any similar service existing out there today.

GBSaved time and gained new insights I invest with my own IRA and always had to spend a lot of time researching. M1 may be a little out of my price range but with all saved time I believe it makes it more than worth it. The service has also helped improve my knowledge on investing instead of relying on bad ideas I've always relied on. The use of OSV has been very valuable and I'm a sastified customer.
