The software that helps you make the most out of your data.

Reduce advertising costs by avoiding double solicitations? Manage your addresses more efficiently through better databases, because they are free of duplicates (deduplication software / dedupe software)? Take account of lists of those who do not wish to receive marketing transmissions? Insert information from a second external database to your own addresses?

DataQualityTools is a collection of tools to help businesses improve the quality of their databases. The central components are a series of functions which help to find duplicate records (deduplication software / dedupe software) and, above all, a function for error-tolerant doublet search based on postal addresses. This allows you, in the case of direct marketing, to avoid double solicitations and the redundant maintenance of customer addresses and other records. Of course, this saves significantly on your expenses. But it also improves the outward image of your company. And through the consideration of opt-out lists / Robinson lists / MPS lists, you can also avoid trouble with people who do not wish to receive marketing transmissions.

• Fast, largely automated and thus easy to use comparison of address databases for double addresses. The postal address (error-tolerant matching), telephone number, email address, address or customer number and tax number can all serve as matching criteria.
• Option to compare with blacklists and the enhancement of an address database using the comparison results with data from a second address database.
• Option to combine multiple tables into a single matching operation.
• User-defined universal matching, that can be used for any form of data.
• Numerous options for the further processing of the matching results: beside the direct deletion in the source file, it is also possible to flag the results in the source file, or to process further using a stored procedure, a duplicate-, results- or archive-file.
• A project history, which delivers information about what was done when with a given project.
• A deletion and matching log that includes comments and your own logo, that can be saved as a PDF file, among others.
  Various functions for the preparation of address- and other databases, such as a case correction, a function to replace terms and a function to delete individual records systematically.

• Large amounts of data can also be processed. This was tested with, among others, the MS SQL server and with ACCESS, each with 5.5 million records, which were processed in under one hour.
