Extracting Value From Islands of Data
In many enterprises, employees manage their own distinct contact lists - usually in Outlook, less frequently in other Personal Information Managers (PIMs) like ACT!.
The potential value of these "Islands of Data" can only be realized for both the employees and the enterprise if the employees have the best possible data available to them at all times, and if the Enterprise can retain an aggregated copy of the pertinent contact data as an enterprise asset.
There are two critical sources for obtaining updated contact information in distributed data environments - directly from the contacts themselves, and from other employees who have common contacts. GoodContacts Synchronizer provides an effective and coordinated solution for obtaining richer and more up-to-date information about contacts from both of these critical sources.
