I don't use either now, but Google Finance always felt like an also-ran product. It started out with some good features but never quite matched Yahoo Finance. In particular, the GF portfolio tool was quite basic next to Yahoos. That said, it's been a few years since I've used either. Dealing with options on GF was a bit of a pain also.
Now, I either stick to the really basic stuff in the stocks app or use Amaeritrade's iPad app which is pretty decent for low level research and I can trade from it.
Feels like the days of having a stocks/ business web page are gone, at least for me.
- ant6n 6y agoIt was a great product until Google soft-killed it.
- ogre_codes 6y agoIt had great potential, the tools they launched were better than Yahoo Finance, but Google Finance never felt finished to me. There were always big pieces of their toolkit missing. Someone mentioned one of them I'd forgotten about which is a portfolio tracker where you could effectively track your cost basis.
