I have found cases and research results that have been critical to research projects assigned to me and which were not found on Westlaw. ----- ### "Great Legal Research Option" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *December 17, 2021* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I find Lexis to be very easy to use while still powerful; I prefer it to most other legal research software options. > > **Cons**: It still feels "buggy" at times; navigation ease could be improved. ----- ### "Lexis Advance is the Second best Search Tool" — 4.0/5 > **Daniel** | *October 20, 2020* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: I subscribed to Lexis Advance for many years. I enjoyed how it was associated with a browser search style. I thought it was very good at performing a deep search and was user friendly. The basic search subscription was mid-range for pricing and for a lot of legal work was easy to assign to specific clients for reimbursement. I like the depth of the search and the library you could search from was unparalleled. itis a great program for a large firm that can afford the overhead. I had some nice features for brief drafting and Sheppard was easy > > **Cons**: The price was too much for the amount of searching I was doing. It was cumbersome at the time for downloads and printing. I would have to pay for specialty libraries, and I could find some of those items for free with a simple google search. > > If I wasn't using Casetext I would use this as my second choice. If I had a more broad based practice it might be good but the pricing was more mid-size firm than solo practice. and it was always increasing. it is good so I don't want this sound like it is a faulty program. for my $ I can get the same for less. ----- ### "Not Worth the Money" — 3.0/5 > **Brian** | *October 29, 2020* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: The identifying of cases overruling parts of the decision is very good. > > **Cons**: Almost too much emphasis cases overruling. Ended up spending a great deal of time searching through these cases only to find is was overruling some other insignificant issue. > > Just was too expensive. ----- ### "Fine Product, Be careful" — 4.0/5 > **James** | *October 27, 2020* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: Solid product. Lexis has been in the game a long time. The product is a very good product. Top tier product and Lexis seems to work towards new products to assist with legal research > > **Cons**: You must be very careful with the sales aspect. Read all the fine print and don't overestimate your future earnings. Usually Lexis will offer a very reduced price for a year or two but then your monthly payment balloons. If you are secure in your ability to pay then don't worry as much. I do feel it is expensive for what you really use - kind of like many phones - lots of extras that you just end up not using. > > I was happy with the product. Customer service is not interested because they have lots of new attorneys graduating to replace you. I struggled when payments ballooned and Lexis would not work with me to get it corrected. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/196819/lexis-advance?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/196819/lexis-advance) ## 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 | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | ----- ## Structured Data
