ANY RESEARCH TOOLS OTHER THAN THOMSON ANALYSTICS?

If you need to make a research on an international company listed in NYSE, what would be the best tool other than Thomson Analytics? I noticed there are not many international companies listed in Thomson so I assume there should be other research tools like Reuters or that sort.

Compustat?

That is only financial data. I need more than that like Thomson Analytical.

Did you know that backtesting has some problems in ZACKS. Alot of data is missing and some messed up. But overall ZACKS is still the easiest to use and you got alot for what you pay. I am happy so far.
