Melissa Data, a developer of high-performance data quality and mail management solutions, announced today the release of Data Quality Web Service 2.0 – a collection of customer data validation and enrichment services that allow users to add the power of geographic and firmographic information to their Web site, CRM system or other business contact process. Among the services that will be available are: Address Validation (domestic and international), Phone Check, Email Check, Name Check, Geocoding, IP Locator, and Business Coder.

“We’ve completely redesigned our Web Service architecture from the ground up with new technology,” said Bud Walker, Data Quality Product Manager for Melissa Data. “Instead of offering a monolithic service, we now provide customers with a la carte pricing where they can choose just the services they need to help keep the cost of doing business down.”

The Data Quality Web Service is operating system neutral – all that is required to access the service is an Internet connection and the programming language of your choice. There are no files to maintain or update. Free sample code in a variety of languages, a free 30-day trial period and unlimited free technical support make integration and testing as easy as possible for customers looking to increase ROI by validating data for data warehousing, ecommerce or marketing projects, or enriching existing data for business intelligence and data mining initiatives.

The Data Quality Web Service includes a customer’s choice of the following set of services:
•    Address Validation: Address Standardized and Verified with USPS (includes ZIP+4 and other elements) or Canada Post for Canadian addresses
•    Phone Check: Area code and prefix updated and corrected
•    Email Check: Syntax corrected, invalid characters removed, MalieXchange check
