MatchUp API (formerly DoubleTake API)

The most powerful de-duplication program on the market with extraordinary merge/purge ability. Processes files in different formats and field structures.

Reduce costs associated with duplicate records
Increase response rates
Maintain a productive, efficient database
Save time de-duping up to 512 files in one run
Reduce errors and save time with merge/perge

Imagine being able to merge and/or purge files in different software formats (Xbase, ASCII, Paradox) with different name, address, and city/state/ZIP structures. No changing structures! No importing! You can do it all with MatchUp.

Find More Duplicates Faster

Match Up (formerly DoubleTake) allows for the use of up to eight "matchcodes" in a single run for quick, thorough results. You can set one code search on addresses, a second on phone numbers, etc. If any matchcode hits, dups are recorded! Easily create unique matchcodes that look for any length of data from any place in any field.

Select from exact matching, Soundex, or Phonetics matching which recognizes phonemes like "ph" and "sh". Match Up also recognizes nicknames (Liz, Beth, Betty, Betsy, Elizabeth) and alternate spellings (Gene, Jean, Jeanne). You'll find more dups faster and in fewer steps than with any other merge/purge program for the PC. You can also save matchcodes for future reuse: a great time-saver for frequently-used files.

Street Smart

MatchUp can output street address components in separate fields. You also have the option of reformatting addresses to maximize the success of your ZIP+4 encoder and fix ZIP+4 blind spots.

Fly Through Lists!

MatchUp has the speed to match its power and flexibility, averaging 500,000 records per hour! Four different kinds of reports are available, each with user-modifiable headers. Reports can be outputted to a printer or ASCII file. You can also view duplicates horizontally or vertically.
