While Scopus is a powerful tool, it has some limitations:
1. Coverage: Although extensive, Scopus does not index every journal or conference proceeding. Some regional publications or less prominent journals may be missing. 2. Access: Full access to Scopus is subscription-based, which can be a barrier for researchers who do not have institutional support. 3. Lag in Indexing: Newly published articles might take some time to appear in Scopus, potentially delaying access to the latest research.
