From Stanford to MIT, virtually all of North America's top schools of business use Plunkett data in print or online format.
“The focus on industry information, the provision of statistics, and the useful company profiles are especially helpful. I mention it in classes and while answering reference questions; the students are especially excited to hear about it.”
