Automated Data Cleansing with Data8's Foundation Technology

Data8Online is powered by Data8's Foundation Technology, providing a suite of fully automatable data cleansing services.

Did you know that, as well as using Data8Online to clean your data online, you can fully automate the process from start to finish using Data8's Foundation Technology via web services?

We offer two methods of automating your data cleansing with us:

  • Foundation Desktop is our ready-made solution for adding data cleansing to your Windows desktop and automated batch file scripts.
  • Web services are our methods for deeply integrating data cleansing into your own application.

Foundation Desktop

Our Foundation Desktop solution is an installable application which allows you to easily repeat data cleansing jobs that you have previously carried out on our Data8Online website. Simply download the configuration file for a job you have already processed and you can re-run the job as frequently as you want on data files of the same format in the future by either right-clicking on the file and selecting the new Data8 option, or from a batch script.

Desktop Data Cleansing

Web Services

As well as using our ready-made Foundation Desktop solution, Foundation Technology is also available via web services, allowing you to deeply integrate our data cleansing services into your bespoke application.

Manual Data Cleansing with Data8Online

Manual Process

When using Data8Online manually, you need to invest time in extracting the data from your database, ensuring it is submitted to our website correctly, waiting for it to be processed, reviewing the data quality audit to select the data to purchase, purchasing the data and ensuring it is re-imported into your database correctly.

 

Automatic Data Cleansing with Foundation Technology

Automatic Process

When using our Foundation Technology to automate your data cleansing tasks, you can set up a bespoke application to automate all the extract, submission, review, purchase and import processes, freeing up the time you would normally spend doing these processes manually and reducing the chances of any errors occurring.

By integrating our Foundation Technology into your business processes you can ensure that your data is always kept up to date while avoiding the time and expense of manually extracting your data, submitting it to the Data8Online website and re-importing the results. By automating this process as part of a custom solution for your business you can, for example, remove goneaway, deceased and duplicate records every month, check for TPS status every 28 days and get the latest telephone numbers and cleansed addresses before every marketing campaign, all without requiring any manual interference.

Because both Data8Online and any custom solutions you implement using our web services use exactly the same Foundation Technology, you can be assured that you will receive the same high quality data cleansing services however you choose to access them. However, by automating your processes you can take advantage of the additional benefits of time savings and less potential for errors when extracting or re-importing your data.
