"Excellent datafeed !!!" - Comment from Arely

"I just wanted to let you know how fast and easy I found it to integrate IQFeed into our existing Java code using your JNI client. In my experience, such things almost never go so smoothly - great job!" - Comment from Nate

"I just wanted to tell you what a fine job you have been doing. While *******, from what I hear, has been down and out, off and on, IQ feed has held like a champ this week." - Comment from Shirin

"I noticed that ******* quotes locked up shortly after the interest rate announcement yesterday while yours stayed stable." - Comment from Ron in Utah

"I am enjoying the feed very much - so superior to the broker provided feed I was previously using." - Comment from George

"It’s so nice to be working with real professionals!" - Comment from Len

"With HUGE volume on AAPL and RIMM for 2 days, everyone in a trading room was whining about freezes, crashes and lag with *******, RealTick, TS and Cyber. InvestorRT with IQFeed was rock solid. I mean SOLID!" - Comment from Public IRC Chat

"I just wanted to say how happy I am with your service. I was able to download the API docs last week and I was able to replicate Interactive Brokers historical bar queries and realtime bar queries over the weekend. That was about one of the fastest integrations that I've ever done and it works perfectly!!!!" - Comment from Jason via Email

I just tested on a 3.2GHZ dual core machine and it takes me about 10 seconds to download 1 minute signals for as far back as I can go. By way of comparison another vendors took about 6 seconds on the same machine. I think one of the big differences is that their seems to fill in most recent to older so the stuff you are looking at appears onscreen almost immediately then the older stuff fills in. Much more visually appealing. I will test this further in the next few days. One problem I seem to have is when I put say 100 new symbols in a database and am trying to get the backfill data for even 20 days or so for all symbols quickly. In the past IQFEED seems to have bogged down for me w/ AmiBroker; even getting stuck on some symbols. I will try that again w/ the new client. Thanks

Unfortunately the dependability does not work well for me w/ AmiBroker. I have had much better success w/ another data feed. Its more expensive and I'd rather give you the business but I originally brought these issues up many months ago and things still don't work as they should.
