Data Quality continues to evolve as data usage increases

Businesses today continue to see data gaining in importance. As more and more organizations work to harness the power that their information can afford them, their underlying data is affecting every aspect of their operations. Departments like customer service, digital commerce, finance, compliance, operations, and more are all working to figure out how they can use data to better serve their customers, reduce risk, and become more efficient in their operations. 
As a result of these trends, an increasing number of businesses are looking to improve their data management practices. 

Data usage is evolving, but so are data quality tools and users

Over the past few years, we at Experian have seen a big shift in data usage. Businesses are learning how to truly unlock the power of data to better serve their clients. But the data usage itself isn’t the only thing evolving. The users of data and the tools used to support their efforts are also changing.
