By gaining a better understanding of their information, businesses can truly unlock the power of their data,” said Thomas Schutz, senior vice president and general manager for Experian Data Quality. “We want to help businesses make smarter, data-driven decisions. This tool allows any business to profile its data quickly and easily, without having to commit budget. By understanding trends, proactively managing data and putting quantifiable metrics in place, organizations can more effectively compile a business case for data quality improvements and accelerate towards accurate and trustworthy data.”
