When considering a best-in-class data resource for your research requirements, it’s important to look below the surface. Market participants have to rely on the data integrity, expertise, and long-term experience of their service providers. Here are 5 key factors one might consider when evaluating this critical vendor community.
- A Legacy of Stability and Expertise
When choosing a data provider, continuity matters. Companies with frequent staff turnover can leave clients without consistent points of contact, making it impossible to build trusting relationships. Stability is not a convenience—it’s essential for ensuring continuity in service and trust in the data you rely on. A partner that is an employee-owned company with decades of experience and an in-house team of economic experts, ensures that your needs will be met with depth and consistency.
- More Than Just Data—A Research-backed Approach
A great data provider should be more than just a source of numbers. They should be a resource for education and insights. Haver’s research group adds value to data to improve the research outcome and productivity delivered with the service. Experts in their field support internal Haver processes and clients. They also enrich client’s understanding of markets and trends via podcasts, commentaries and webinars.
- Transparency Over Tactics
There are vendors who may use pricing and claims of equivalent deliverables that later come with unexpected costs. Haver offers transparency with clear, upfront commitments to providing high value services without after-the-fact surprises. A true vendor partner prioritizes productive relationships over short-term gains and the expense of integrity that comes with it.
- It’s All About the Data
Software is incredibly important to Haver and our services include access to our productive desktop tools. In addition, we remain committed to continuous improvement of our suite of technical solutions for the delivery of our data.

Our meticulous approach ensures that the data you rely on is not only timely but also accurate, reliable, and ready for analysis.
- The Right Choice for the Long Haul
Decades of experience as an independent organization makes a difference when choosing a data provider. Stable relationships and consistently high standards met for the most demanding clients globally counts. Working with Haver, clients benefit from the deep expertise, integrity, and commitment to excellence that are hallmarks of our organization. Do make sure you have a trusted resource by your side for the long haul – not surprises, but a trusted, professional resource.
