What is the difference between ABCD Index and Scopus

ABCD Index and Scopus are both indexing platforms that provide a list of journals that meet their criteria for quality and relevance. However, there are some differences between the two platforms:

ABCD Index:

ABCD Index is a free platform for journals, authors, and readers.
The platform monitors journals through automated programs, reviewer teams, and feedback from authors.

The platform provides complete details about the journal, including publisher name, number of issues, year of establishment, indexing information, web address, and citation of the journal.

The platform also provides a rating of the journal based on the current indexing dataset, review time, transaction transparency, citation of the journal, papers, etc.

ABCD Index invites journals to sign up and submit their journal to get indexing at ABCD Index platform and increase the reach of journals around the globe between the authors community.

Scopus:

Scopus is a paid indexing platform that provides a comprehensive database of scientific, technical, medical, and social science literature.

Scopus uses a complex algorithm to evaluate the quality and relevance of journals based on citation data, peer review, and other factors.

Scopus provides a list of journals that meet their criteria for quality and relevance, including information on the journal's impact factor, h-index, and other metrics.

Scopus also provides tools for researchers to track citations, analyze research trends, and collaborate with other researchers.

In summary, while both ABCD Index and Scopus provide a list of indexed journals, ABCD Index is a free platform that focuses on monitoring journals through automated programs, reviewer teams, and feedback from authors, while Scopus is a paid platform that uses a complex algorithm to evaluate the quality and relevance of journals based on citation data, peer review, and other factors.
