  • Reddit's Honest Verdict on Finviz: What Investors Say — ### The data delay on free accounts Free users get data delayed 15–20 minutes depending on the exchange. This isn't a problem for position investors doing end-of-day screening. It's a dealbreaker for anyone trying to act on intraday moves. The elite tier fixes this, but at $39.99/month (or ~$300/year on annual), the price feels steep relative to what else is available. ### Weak fundamental depth Finviz shows the basics: P/E, P/B, EPS, revenue, short float. What it doesn't show: the Graham Number

Evidence gaps include lack of detailed pricing for the free tier's limits, no explicit uptime or status page information, and no independent customer reviews or ratings. Open questions remain about the exact data refresh rates for real-time data and the full scope of API capabilities.
