Determine your business needs

Based on your specific business needs, you can compare your records at once, which is ideal for batch merge/purge suppressing existing data; or you can compare each record as they come in and against a database of already processed records – ideal for real-time data entry. Another method is called “hybrid deduping” that allows businesses to customize how records are processed and stored.

1. Standardize your data
2. Determine your business needs
3. Monitor your data
