Gartner attests to Uniserv's prominent international role in the industry / portfolio of services, know-how and partnerships in focus

Pforzheim, October 2007. Gartner, Inc., a leading global enterprise for IT market research and consulting, has listed the German data quality provider, Uniserv, in its Magic Quadrant for data quality tools 2007*. "Inclusion in the Magic Quadrant of Gartner underlines the important international role of Uniserv in the field of data quality and puts us at the same level as the big players in the industry", says Ulrich Sohn, Director of International Sales at Uniserv, commenting on the positive performance in the latest data quality study of Gartner.

The Magic Quadrants of Gartner show how specific providers are positioned in a specific market according to criteria defined by Gartner. In the latest study on data quality, the providers were analyzed and assessed both according to their Ability to Execute and their Completeness of Vision. The decades of experience, the comprehensive and easily integrable product portfolio for data quality and - last but not least - the well-established partnerships, e.g. with SAP® and Oracle®, all spoke for Uniserv in this respect. "Gartner's inclusion of Uniserv in the Magic Quadrant for Data Quality Tools 2007 proves to us that we are excellently positioned in the address and customer data quality market in an international comparison", says Roland Pfeiffer, CEO at Uniserv, with a smile, and adds: "We regard the listing as both an obligation and an incentive to continue to implement the adopted policy systematically and to work at extending the general data quality capability of our products beyond address and customer data!
