What do you dislike about Ideagen Audit Analytics?

Need to "translate" identifers to link to financial statement data. Repetitious financial data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Maria Aksiantsiuk of Ideagen Audit Analytics

Hi John Robert,

Thank you for your constructive review!

We’re delighted to hear that Ideagen Audit Analytics helps you link audit data to financial statements and that you find our customer support excellent.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the need to translate identifiers. While linking our data to other providers can be complex due to differing identifiers and methodologies, we are committed to making this process as smooth as possible. We provide a helpful paper that outlines the best way to merge the two using Python, which we hope you find beneficial. Please raise a support ticket with this request and we’ll be happy to supply you with this.

Your insights are invaluable as we continue to improve our services.

What do you like best about Ideagen Audit Analytics?

I use this service via. WRDS. It fits quite well with my data requirements when studying firms' restatement. The structure of the data is clear and well-organized. It is super easy to find what I need. The data manual is also very helpful in finding the definitions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ideagen Audit Analytics?

The data page is still a bit messy in WRDS. It takes time to find what I need. Although it is fine with the data manual, it could be further improved (e.g., combined, well-indexed etc.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
