Can anyone comment on the usefulness of the Derwent classification system? I have been considering the purchase of Derwent information, but Derwent cannot illustrate to me that their classification is "better" - all they can show me is that it is "different". Any comments would be much appreciated.

Same question here ... is the Derwent classification better or just different? To believe it's better, wouldn't it mean they have duplicated the USPTO in terms of inhouse skills and resources?
Can anyone with experience using Derwent help out? Is it worth the money?
