But do not panic, mope or throw your money at the first portfolio platform coming your way. We have looked at the variety of tools, information and usability of the platform to make sure you have what you need for your investment needs.

Out of tens of thousands of stocks, funds, and ETFs that trade on global exchanges each represent an individual company which you can analyze using comparative analysis. To determine which one of the two entities, such as Macroaxis or Microsoft is a better fit for your portfolio, analyzing a few basic fundamental indicators is a good first step.

The team at Data Driven Investor has got you covered, and we have put together a list of 10 Google Finance Alternatives just for you. In the guide below, we have narrowed down the free alternatives. You will find out which tool is meant for you, what are the unique selling points they offer, and what charges you can expect.


Ready to find your new go-to portfolio platform?

 

MSN Money

While MSN Messenger has been forgotten before Google+, Microsoft's MSN Money is a stellar alternative to Google Finance. It provides quick views to the headlines of all the relevant news articles, a huge range of data with different tabs (think basic price, range, market cap and more), and a range of information about different financial products (not just stocks). Their MVP feature is the portfolio, with multiple account representations, real-time trading figures and the option to track transactions. The charts are well-designed, pleasing to the eye, and usability is great both on desktop and mobile versions. The only drawback is that often the content is duplicated throughout different tabs, while the aggregated articles from other sites sometimes lack originality.


Who is it ideal for: Anyone looking for an easy, accessible tool
Unique Selling Point: a vast amount of information
Cost: FREE

 

Investing.com

Level up folks! Investing.com might be overwhelming at first with the depth of information through detailed charts – courtesy of Trading View. Investing.com offers a wide selection of high-quality news sources and is one of the top 3 financial websites in the world. They also have a mobile app – great to check your investment on the go. Investing.com also lists cryptocurrencies, so you can check both stock and bitcoin in the same place. On the downside, it might not be as easy-to-digest as MSN Money for beginners, and you need to endure plenty of ads.


Who is it ideal for: intermediate (crypto)investors who want to dive deeper into the data
Unique Selling Point: a great mobile app with tons of charts
Cost: FREE with options for a paid version without ads

 

TradingView

TradingView is somewhere in the middle between a financial trading platform and a social network. They have some of the most sophisticated, often even a bit too complex, charts and data. Additionally, community members can submit technical analysis, which viewers can like, comment and share. Top authors are ranked, and you can follow their accounts for more wisdom. On the other hand, news is not their strength, with only limited resources, and you can only create a watchlist instead of a full portfolio.


Who is it ideal for: traders who want a piece of community wisdom
Unique Selling Point: community analysis and superb data
Cost: Free

 

Alphatrackr


Another comprehensive investment tracker tool, helping you to monitor your performance and analyze different stocks. You can manage multiple portfolios, receive alerts and check the news, but more importantly, get unique investment ideas. The tool is also available in a mobile app version, and the usability is great. The only downside we found was a slight delay of 15-20 minutes in price updates, which could be crucial if you trade actively.
Who is it ideal for: beginner to intermediate traders


Unique Selling Point: a great platform with added investment ideas
Cost: Free
