Businesses have software solutions for detecting missing values, duplicates, format issues, and other common data errors. In selecting the appropriate data quality software, it is necessary to evaluate functionality, including data profiling, data validation, duplication identification, and reporting among others. Integration capabilities with other database and enterprise applications may be another criterion for consideration. The selection should match the business's size and financial and technical capability, among other requirements. Businesses may conduct testing on sample records before settling on an appropriate option.
