LinkageWiz is a powerful data matching, de-duplication and data cleansing tool used by businesses, government agencies, universities and other organizations in the USA, Canada, UK, Australia and France. It makes it easy to link records across multiple databases and to identify duplicate records.

  • Sophisticated probabilistic linkage techniques are used, using common identifiers such as name, date of birth, sex, address, Social Security Number and others.

  • Data can be imported from a wide range of desktop and corporate database systems.

  • LinkageWiz also assists with the identification and correction of data quality issues. It has the most comprehensive range of data cleansing functions on the market. Also included are address scrubbing and geo-coding modules.

  • LinkageWiz uses an intuitive graphical user interface and does not require a high level of expertise to operate. It is a standalone product and does not require the use of a separate program such as SAS or Microsoft Access.

  • Download your free trial version today! LinkageWiz is now free for use with data sets containing up to 2,000 records.

  • LinkageWiz is increasingly being used by international medical and social researchers; a number of research papers have already been published.

LinkageWiz Data Matching Software

"LinkageWiz is a user friendly, versatile and cost effective solution to record linking. It is a standalone tool without awkward or complex dependencies with a good and functional user interface. The learning curve is minimal without sacrificing functionality or performance -- certainly it met the stringent needs of our Department. On top of this superlative performance, the user support is just remarkable - I cannot recommend this software enough. Way to go!"

Why do I need to use data matching software?

Can't I just match on first name, family name and address? Sure, if you are happy with finding only 70% of possible matches then you may not need data matching software. However you are unlikely to detect cases where there have been spelling mistakes, nicknames or aliases have been used, dates of birth have been estimated or where the family name has changed through marriage etc.

Data matching software will enable the detection of up to 99% or higher of all potential matches. For business this can represent considerable extra potential revenue or cost savings, increased fraud detection and, for medical research can mean the difference between a successful research project and one that failed to report any significant findings.
