"As a past ******* customer(and not a happy one), IQ Feed by DTN is a much better and cheaper product with great customer support. I have had no problems at all since switching over." - Comment from Public Forum

"Just a thank you for the very helpful and prompt assistance and services. You provided me with noticeably superior service in my setup compared to a couple of other options I had looked at." - Comment from John

"I use IQ Feed, Great stuff as far as data analysis information, storage and retrieval is concerned." - Comment from Public Forum

"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

"Version 4.0.0.2 has been working well for me and I appreciate that it is now a much tighter client to work with. I feel I can go to press with my own application and rely on a stable platform" - Comment from David in IA.

"This is an excellent value, the system is generous (allowing for 500 stocks) and stable (and really is tick-by-tick), and the support is fantastic." - Comment from Shirin via Email

"You are either overstaffed or people just don't have problems with your feed because customer support always answers the phone quickly." - Comment from Jay via Email

jicinvest -Interested User- Posts: 3 Joined: Apr 4, 2019	Posted: Apr 4, 2019 09:31 AM Msg. 3 of 6 Download Fundamental, Summary, and Historic data for a large data set. (to be scheduled and automated) Maintain a current list of available Listed Markets, Security Types, SIC codes, NAICS codes, & Dynamic Fieldsets to easily modify what data is downloaded and for what data set. Track what symbols get added/removed. Upload the data directly into a MSSQL database. Those are the basics

Someone else in the forums has some C# libraries. I don't know what else is out there. Do you need specific development environment, or do you just need an application rather than an API?

I have experience with everything you listed. If you have Matlab then you'd be able to use/adapt/maintain the code by yourself. If you don't have Matlab, the program could be compiled as a standalone executable. Contact me to discuss further, if you're interested.
