At the Software Bureau we believe in best practice, and clean data should be at the heart of every campaign or database. Cygnus was initially developed for data cleaning within the mailing house industry over ten years ago. Part of the brief to design Cygnus was to ensure it was easy and straightforward to use, yet powerful enough to process a few records or many millions to tight deadlines. Another “must” was that any data file stayed within the software and did not have to be exported and re – imported into a job and was able to cope with the most complex of tasks. Since its birth Cygnus has been constantly refined and developed to cater for the ever increasing complex requirements of the data industry.
Recent client driven developments include developing a module to incorporate Downstream Access Sortation (DSA) from TNT, UK Mail and DHL. This allows DSA Sortation to be selected within the Cygnus environment. Another example of client driven development and a UK first is the Embedded Suppression module (ES). We have enabled users to have direct access to eight of the UK’s leading suppression files. This allows Cygnus clients to use these suppression files, and access them within the Cygnus environment without having to enter into any contractual arrangement or incur costs associated with a direct relationship with the data owners. Whether you are a mailing house or end user, this is the ideal solution for cleaning and consolidating databases or reselling data cleaning services. As the process is fully automated mark up costs are kept to a minimum.
