"The release of Trillium Software System, Version 11 is well timed as companies start multi-year MDM integration and migration projects and do the foundation work of preparing their data for these initiatives," said Ed Wrazen, vice president, product management and strategy for Trillium Software. "The focus on data quality cannot be a 'one-time' investment that organizations make, but must be part of an ongoing strategy and implementation to help ensure the success of MDM projects."
