Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I'm an accounting researcher who is passionate about producing new knowledge for the accounting profession. I use the Ideagen Audit Analytics dataset for accounting and auditing research. The dataset includes critical variables, for example, audit fees, non-audit fees, and critical audit matters. The data provider also organizes data efficiently, with clear-identified labels/columns. The dataset is easy to download and is comprehensive.

Pros

  • Easy to download.
  • Column names are clear.
  • Data is comprehensive.
  • Data updates are promptly.

Cons

  • I use WRDS often. If Ideagen Audit Analytics can have a closer relationship with WRDS, that will be awesome, for example, more frequent updates on WRDS.
  • Overall, I like this dataset so far.
