Sales and the 'Talent Magnet'

A lot is written about being a ‘Talent Magnet’, either as a company, or as President. It’s all good practice – listen, mentor, reward, provide clear goals and career maps. Good practice for the employer, but what about the employee?

Data sets are valuable

Fuzzy! Informatik AG | fazi.deindex.php?en

No Comments

Data processing has developed into a critical business size with a high added value potential: CRM, ERP, Data Warehouse or Business Intelligence base everything on a company’s data sets. But factors such as increasing amounts of data, data exchange, internationalisation, data integration or extensive data analysis increase the demands on systems and processes enormously. The high complexity makes ensuring data quality a real challenge – and not
infrequently an underestimated danger. Lack of data quality can lead to a whole series of problems. IT, marketing, sales, controlling and management are all equally affected by the consequences: Lack of acceptance by users, dissatisfied customers, and faulty analysis results leading to wrong decisions, high costs, time delays and project management going wrong.

Characteristic: Typical quality problems

Multiple saved data records and out of date or incomplete master data are among the most common problems. Typos or comprehension problems when entering data are typical sources of error. Where international customer data bases are involved there is the additional problem of language, as well as different address formats, letters and symbols. There are also incorrect field allocations because of insufficient data record description, unstructured data or erroneous data imports are problematical because they falsify analyses. A further challenge lies in large quantities of data: Quick access – despite incomplete or faulty information – is no longer possible with conventional search processes. Important information may be overlooked or even become unable to be found.

Protect your capital

FUZZY! supports you in protecting your data sets and thereby your capital. Employing leading technology, effective tools, well thought through concepts and flexible solutions for ensuring data quality.
Lack of data quality is problematic, but not unusual. Frequently it is particularly the companies who show (and need to cope with) strong growth that are hit. The improvement of data quality is seen as too complex and time consuming and often only gets a subordinate priority for that reason. FUZZY!’s up-to-date solutions demonstrate that it does not have to be like that.

Thought through concepts. Proven tools

FUZZY! DIME® - Measure and monitor data quality

FUZZY! DIME® stands for “Data Quality Investigation and Measurement Environment” and is the basis for system and processing optimisation in data management: The software enables the data quality to be reliably measured and monitor improvement processes. The tool offers central analysis, reporting, presentation and optimisation of any data set and stands out for its simple operation: Through notification processes, automated standardised
measurement processes and possibilities of clear graphic presentation of the measurement results. Interactive analyses and measurements with convenient drill down functions are possible.

FUZZY! Format™ - Analysing and structuring data sets

FUZZY! Format™ analyses, structures and normalises data and reliably puts them into a correct, complete uniform format. The software supports particularly data migration and reorganisation of data bases: It classifies contents, prepares external data sets for risk free data import and ensures reliable data export. FUZZY! Format™ offers at the same time, maximum flexibility in translating customer specific requirements.

FUZZY! Post™ - Faultless postal addresses

Correct addresses are prerequisite for efficient customer contact. FUZZY! Post™ ensures that your communication “arrives”: The tool offers validation independent of language and character sets, correction, standardisation and enhancement of international address data whereby the processing for all countries is through a single interface. Best recognition and correction results thanks to FUZZY! matching, high quality reference data as well as simple integration and expandability are features of FUZZY! Post™.

FUZZY! Double®- - De-duplication and error tolerant search

Duplicates not only cause unnecessary costs, but an uncomfortable feeling in the recipients. FUZZY! Double® enables data sets to be reliably cleansed and thus retain good customer relations: The software recognises and avoids multiple entries, identifies interconnection between companies and supports house holding. It additionally enables high performance error tolerant searches even in large data sets – that means quick access even in incomplete or incorrect search requests.
