How does this compare to Bloomberg?

From what I've seen, people in the financial services industry have gotten very good at using the Bloomberg Terminal commands to examine this kind of data.

FYI You can literally ask the same question to the terminal -- we process English language queries (and can resolve textual company names to tickers :)).
