About AlternativeSoft

AlternativeSoft is a financial risk management software designed to help allocators, consultants, fund managers, and third-party fund marketers create portfolios and manage asset selection processes. Administrators can import fund data from various sources including Morningstar, Albourne, and Preqin to convert assets into multiple currencies on a unified interface.

The platform enables managers to compare funds using hedge fund index constituents, and conduct statistics weighted ranking analysis. AlternativeSoft provides built-in templates, which allow teams to produce fact sheets and generate portfolio reports. Additionally, businesses can set up compliance protocols, measure portfolio liquidity, track profit and loss metrics and manage accounting operations for private equity funds.

AlternativeSoft offers a due diligence module, which lets allocators collect, analyze and store qualitative and quantitative data in a centralized dashboard. Pricing is available on request and support is extended via email and phone.

    While we only use a small portion of the tools AltSoft has (Database, Portfolio Management, Peer Groups), each have been helpful to our reporting processes and portfolio modeling.

    Pros:
    Breadth, ease of use (for those familiar with investment stats), customer service/technical help, and customization.
    Cons:
    Export times take a little bit long on some reports, but it's seconds, not minutes, and it can run in the background while I do something else. Also, would like them to introduce an "undo" feature during performance entry.

    It has helped tremendously with automating or semi-automating a number of reports. The excel plug in was a fantastic idea and more importantly, works very well. As a comparison tool for screening funds, it's second to none

    Pros:
    Very intuitive, thoughtful UI, powerful backend, great datafeed plug ins, constant evolution
    Cons:
    Too difficult to filter funds you do not want when importing from ODU, leading to reimport of previously deleted assets. I understand the impetus for charging for the cloud option, but with a larger provider it would likely be provided at no additional cost. Morningstar Direct made this available at no extra cost and, given the comparability in cost between the two softwares, it is difficult to justify spending more on a cloud option.

    Overall, I have had a great experience with AlternativeSoft. It has made my job much easier because return data is automatically pulled from our prime broker and I can run reports that give me key insights into our fund performance.

    Pros:
    I enjoy how easy the software is to use. I can easily pull up fund level return data and find key data points, such as correlations and volatility. Also, I can compare easily against key benchmarks and peer groups.
    Cons:
    Sometimes, when using the software it can get a bit laggy when typing in fund information, causing a delay.

    In our version 5.0.3.41311: Portfolio Management Tool could have more analytics like contributions of assets and strategies In Database, there should be a good possibility to save user entered fund specific data like in the old "Holdings" tab. In the Asset Analysis Form it should be easier to compare two Funds agains each user with regards to performance, risk, etc.

    We were still working with Excel to compute performances... So for us it is a big step and a much higher level of analysis. Even though I know this software is mainly used by fund managers, I am sure it will be fine for our portfolio management.

    Pros:
    Link any sources of data with the program Flexibility of the programming team Analysis of the portfolio is very impressive and the live update with time window's adjustments is very important and useful.
    Cons:
    It looks a bit outdated in terms of design but it doesn't matter. I already used the program so I was familiar with it, but for a beginner, it is not so user-friendly. In portfolio construction, time-window often is often re-based and adapted to the initial date when reopening a portfolio, and do not save the last time window used. So it makes me often check my weights (model 2) over the time line to see if there is no data missing...
