There are two types of dataverses.
Create a Basic dataverse if you plan to use your dataverse to collect and host studies for different uses. For example, create a Basic dataverse to manage data for any of the following:
- Collections
- Institutions, departments, or centers
- Journals
- Course data portals
- Research projects
Create a Scholar dataverse if you plan to user your dataverse to host your own studies, research, and data.
