The HTAi Vortal: a comparative analysis
1. Vortal’s competitors have been identified
using a quick empirical search on the Web.
Functionalities have been identified by
consulting the website or their archive.
While some existing content or functionalities are to be
found in other tools, some remain unique to the Vortal.
Further research would be needed to evaluate the preferred
tool(s) and functionalities of people with interest in HTA.
Cooperation could be further considered.
The Vortal presents content and functionalities similar to other tools, but scope
and detailing level is different. Also, the Vortal often provides a better integration
resulting in more efficiency.
The Vortal is the only Web platform to offer a service of publication of custom
bibliographies to the different HTAi Interest Sub Groups.
