Also it comes free and thats a bonus. > > **Cons**: Notifications on new publications specific to keywords search are not available to users.

Supports with journal articles. > > **Cons**: It should provide facility to download journal articles. > > Good ----- ### "Powerful search tool but lacks some features" — 5.0/5 > **Saranath** | *March 2, 2022* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I found the R Discovery mobile and web apps to be well designed and user-friendly. I use R Discovery to search for scientific papers relevant to my area of research. As a literature survey tool, the R Discovery platform seems to have a comprehensive database of scientific publications. The topic-based search provides an exhaustive list of relevant papers and the platform is surprisingly good at analyzing my preferences and feedback to customize my feed. > > **Cons**: I found it quite difficult to narrow down the search results, because the R Discovery platform does not have any filters such as Year of Publication (e.g., to check for papers published in the last 2 years) and Type of Publication (e.g., Article, Review, Book chapter). Although the search tool does learn from my feedback, it is time-consuming to provide it because, sometimes, the results run into thousands of papers. ----- ### "Excellent App for Researchers" — 5.0/5 > **Jesse** | *February 4, 2022* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Excellent and organized research papers. I always get my daily email for the top read. I am into Geothermal. Machine Learning and Power System. > > **Cons**: Paid paper from other sources. Hence not able to access the papers. > > Excellent. I would give it 90% as marks. 10% is for a room for improvement ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/1020712/r-discovery?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/1020712/r-discovery) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
