What it does
LSEG Workspace combines market data, Reuters news, analytics and financial research across desktop and browser access. It connects with Microsoft 365 and Teams, with capabilities that vary by installation. Eligible new customers can apply for a 30-day trial.
Plan the spreadsheet workflow as well as the screen
Workspace can bring research closer to the spreadsheets and conversations where it is used. The desktop and web comparison is useful here: the installed COM add-in and the lighter web-oriented Office add-in do not offer identical functions. The web version itself requires no installation.
The platform includes analytics such as StarMine and MarketPsych, news and portfolio tools. Use Download & installation and the technical documentation to check the chosen setup before arranging deployment across a team.
Trial and purchase
The 30-day trial application asks for business details and a corporate email. LSEG checks eligibility as a new customer, then requires email verification and an account. Online purchasing also starts with a free registration account, which exposes package and pricing details. That purchasing account is distinct from lasting free use of Workspace.
