    Go get demos of them all. Reviews are not all that relevant without getting a demo of how they handle your specific products. If you have trading neighbors see how well supported/serviced they are.

  4. The article isn't bad actually, although I'd take exception with

    "You could probably live without Bloomberg if …

    You’re in investment banking. Investment bankers do not use Bloomberg as widely as some of their sell-side peers and buy-side professionals."

    ... ignores the fact that a BB terminal on your desk is a status symbol - especially if you don't use it, except to go IM and compare your wordle score with your golfing mates - so basically the bank is prepared to blow $2K a month on a glorified email terminal - that's how important you are! And IB is the most status symbol obsessed world you can possibly imagine.
