PROSThe software is good. Supports with journal articles.

Reason for choosing R Discovery
Good
Vendor Response
Thanks so much for the feedback. Open access articles can be downloaded for free on R Discovery. To download articles published in subscription-based journals, you or your institution would need to have a subscription with the journal. However, we are working to increase the number of open access publications on our platform.

Powerful search tool but lacks some features
I found the R Discovery mobile and web apps to be well designed and user-friendly. I use R Discovery to search for scientific papers relevant to my area of research. As a literature survey tool, the R Discovery platform seems to have a comprehensive database of scientific publications. The topic-based search provides an exhaustive list of relevant papers and the platform is surprisingly good at analyzing my preferences and feedback to customize my feed.
CONSI found it quite difficult to narrow down the search results, because the R Discovery platform does not have any filters such as Year of Publication (e.g., to check for papers published in the last 2 years) and Type of Publication (e.g., Article, Review, Book chapter). Although the search tool does learn from my feedback, it is time-consuming to provide it because, sometimes, the results run into thousands of papers.
Vendor Response
Thank you so much for your review. We have noted your feedback on the limited search filter options. We're in the process of gradually expanding our filter options on the app. We have recently added the option to filter by author names, journal names, and open access. We also have a 'Duration' filter that can help you filter papers based on time since publication. We will definitely use your input as a guideline for future product updates.

Incredible app
My experience with R discovery is great. I has simplified my life as a researcher. I helps me identify quickly the right articles. It is a time saving!
PROSI like the recommendations for articles, the summary of the articles and the user friendliness.
CONSIt can include the option of articles that fully available and those that are not.
Vendor Response
Thank you for the feedback, Jonas! The articles recommended on your Home screen have flags to indicate whether they are open access or not. Besides, one of the search filters, Flags, also allows you to choose to filter only open access articles. Your Explore screen has a section called "Read full papers" where you can read full text papers from your selected topics. If you have any questions, do write to us at discovery@researcher.life or set up a call at http://bit.ly/3sEAzFU.

The "nitty-gritty" search engine
My second best option for free access to publications that can be filtered to the minutest keywords.
PROSI can customise search, specifically to keywords, that are highly specific. Also it comes free and thats a bonus.
CONSNotifications on new publications specific to keywords search are not available to users. My institute is also not added in the "access full text" option (I have notified the admin and action is awaited)
Vendor Response
