BILLERICA, MA – June 2, 2008 – Trillium Software®, a business of Harte-Hanks, Inc. (NYSE:HHS) and a leading enabler of Total Data Quality™ solutions, today delivered the latest version of its enterprise data quality software solution, the Trillium Software System® version 11.5. The software now offers an expanded, fully-integrated set of data profiling, validation and cleansing capabilities across a broader range of countries to meet the global needs of business users who require a more strategic approach for solving data quality challenges throughout their organizations. As a result, customers who process large volumes of product and customer data from multiple regions can achieve superior data quality for optimal business operations performance.
“In a time of increasing economic challenges and rapid consolidation of data quality providers – which leaves significant gaps in data management knowledge – it is important for our customers to know they can turn to Trillium Software for superior expertise to help them achieve their data quality objectives,” said Leonard Dubois, vice president of marketing at Harte-Hanks Trillium Software. “Our latest version of the Trillium Software System represents the culmination of many years of listening to and working closely with the world’s leading companies. As a result, organizations now have an industry-leading technology foundation upon which they can confidently and more easily build data quality into their business processes to improve business operations and solve their data management and governance challenges.”
* Expanded Address Validation capabilities that provide even broader coverage of street and house-level validation in fifteen additional countries such as Austria, Poland, Russia, and New Zealand. This helps customers obtain accurate results for global data, incorporating country-specific rules, standards and cultural nuances;
* Expanded Country Projects for out-of-the-box data flows, and country-specific rules for parsing, matching and address reconstruction of data across multiple regions in Eastern Europe, the Nordics and Russia. For global organizations that require high quality data from sources located in these regions, companies can realize strong results and improved value over less-sophisticated address validation products;
* Trillium Software System for Mainframe Environments is available to run on Z/OS and is unicode-enabled for the mainframe. New functionality includes double-byte capabilities, broader country code support, and data cleansing module consolidation that enables customers to achieve their global data quality goals and realize business value from existing legacy application investments.
