DataCite vs Figshare
Who’s behind each, what their homepages track, what they cost and how often their policies changed, measured the same way for both. By what they offer, they’re very close.
DataCite is a global nonprofit membership organization that registers DOIs (persistent identifiers) and metadata for research outputs such as datasets, software, dissertations and grant awards, and provides search and integration services to make them discoverable and citable.
An open access repository where researchers upload, preserve, and share research outputs such as datasets, figures, images, videos, and code, with citable DOIs. It also offers hosted repository services for institutions and publishers.
