I’m a big fan of TMTKO.com and (other than a strong search tool) its subscription includes many useful tools for Office Action responses and monitoring.  They offer a free month trial too.

Subject: [E-trademarks] TM Searching Alternatives

I have been using Corsearch for trademark searching for at least 30+ years and it has become very expensive. I remember when an annual subscription was $4000+/-, and was recently quoted @ $9000 with a discount offered to $8500 for an annual Trademark Office search subscription.

I am looking for an alternative other than Boolean searches in the USPTO database.

I have seen the companies that  advertise/exhibit at INTA, and also receive frequent email solicitations.

So, although I am generally aware of what alternatives are available, I am looking for recommendations based upon price/value and quality/scope of search results for PTO (and also for full common law) searches.

Also, if anyone is willing to share their search fee structure, that would be great — maybe my fees have not kept up, and Corsearch is not as expensive as I perceive.

Thanks for your recommendations and insight.

Simor
