## Which has the more accurate price data?

Eebz publishes a benchmark; NIQ publishes none. On 50 technical products at 8 retailers in the UK and Benelux, Eebz returned the correct information 96% of the time against about 65% for the market leader. Every Eebz extract is timed to the moment each retailer reprices, delivered by 10am local time, and never filled with yesterday’s number when a scrape fails. NIQ states that out-of-stock data is refreshed continuously and that it collects more than 200 billion online data points a day, but gives no accuracy figure.

## How long does each take to set up?

Eebz onboards in days. Sixta fills itself from the retailers’ own pages, PRS matches products at 99.9% accuracy with no URL lists, and 95% of new listings in a covered category are matched within days. When a retailer changes its site the average fix is 36 hours. NIQ describes a UPC-based product referential with AI-assisted matching and human validation, and says new retailers and categories are added without client work, but publishes no timeline. The few public reviews of Data Impact mention that set-up takes a while and results are slow to appear.

## Which sees more of the shelf?

NIQ publishes the bigger numbers: 1,000+ retailers and 141,000+ store locations, with share of assortment, gap analysis and availability by location. Eebz covers every main retailer in every market you sell in, adds a missing retailer in days at no charge, and scrapes the complete category from the retailer’s own taxonomy, so share of shelf includes products you were not watching and is weighted by rank. Eebz also tracks 70,000+ marketplace sellers, with every seller’s full offering visible, on Amazon and on marketplaces such as CDON, Lazada, Shopee and Mercado Libre.

## What does each do with the data?

NIQ’s offer is measurement joined to sales: shelf KPIs alongside NielsenIQ sales and share data, with retail media activation. Eebz delivers data by dashboard, locked views for managers, API, data lake, spreadsheet or Claude, and then acts. Every exception becomes a task for its owner, and Ada can send the reorder request with sales history, send the content fix, create and update listings through 14 marketplace connectors, and price your own channels within the rules you set.
