Pros and Cons
Pros
- Among the deepest private-transaction datasets available, searched across 200-plus data points per deal, far more than broker-reported comp sets
- Data sourcing and verification process is documented and discussed in searcher communities
- Day Pass option fits one-off deal analysis without an annual commitment
Cons
- Priced for professionals: $1,499 a year or a $529 day pass, against the $99 a single SBA-comps search costs
- Overkill for typical sub-$1M Main Street screening, where SBA-financed comps answer the question for $99
- The interface and workflow assume valuation-professional context
What Searchers Say
The professional standard for private-company transaction comps, referenced across the valuation field and in searcher-community threads about where reliable multiples come from. The practical searcher question is cost-benefit versus cheaper SBA-only comp tools, not data quality.
