What is the best database for the lower and middle private market?
I'm starting a M&A division for a CPA firm and I have to choose a really good and reliable database of deals and players of the lower and middle private market. Any help here?

MergerMarket is excellent as a deal database and they have house profiles as well.
Thank you very much!!! Do you have any idea of price?
Can't remember exactly but it is highly negotiable. We got a high double digit discount on their listed price.
Well, we are just starting so I'll try to negotiate as much as I can. Thank you very much.
I like using PitchBook for private companies and deals
I have an conference call with them scheduled. Do you have any idea of price?
Something like $17-$20k a year for two seats
It's about 2k per month but you could see if you can try to negotiate.
Ok. Thank you very much!!!!
Capital IQ, if you company does not have a database, i would be very concerned about the practice. The databases are crazy expensive.
