Duplication of information is a common issue for anyone maintaining a centralised corporate database or multiple departmental data sources. But the problem can range far beyond the Database Administrator. For those who mail, not only will duplicates represent a huge amount of unnecessary cost, but will also have a detrimental impact on your reputation with your customers.

Why is duplication becoming an increasingly common problem?

• Typing and Casing Errors
• Misheard Names or Addresses
• Data-Warehousing. Mergers and Acquisitions or a new Corporate Strategy may require the merging of various disparate data sources, creating obvious potential for duplication.
• Web Data Capture. Whilst this mechanism of data collection has seen a massive uptake, the increase in customer contacts can sometimes be at the cost of accurate information.

How can AtlasDedupe help you?

• AtlasDedupe is a sophisticated tool for eliminating unwanted duplicates. Whether it be consumer or business data, Australian or International, AtlasDedupe can intelligently identify duplicates at both individual and property level.
• AtlasDedupe categorises duplicates by Passes and Scoring. Each 'Pass' of the data places weighting on different elements of the input information. Percentage scoring can also be activated depending on the specific requirements of a given dataset.
• As a user you have the choice to act on AtlasDedupe's findings. Duplicate records can be deleted automatically, verified interactively, merged, purged, output to separate databases for update or archive. Alternatively make use of the resultant report to make amendments within your live systems. Whatever the preferred method AtlasDedupe empowers the user to undertake complex data processes that can bring real benefits to your business.
• AtlasDedupe will support the deduplication of up to 10 databases against one another in any one run. The flexible merging facility means that no valuable customer data has to be sacrificed following the removal of a duplicate, enabling the creation of a single customer view.

Usability

• Despite the complex processes that AtlasDedupe offers, the user will be surprised at its ease-of-use and intuitive workflow.

This in no way detracts from the user's ability to regulate the parameters of a run.
