Duplicates come in all forms, shapes, and sizes. There may not be a one-size-fits-all solution that can comprehensively identify all your duplicates right out of the box, but there are powerful options that can be tailored to your needs. With the launch of DataGroomr, which uses machine learning to catch duplicates, there is finally a tool that provides a comprehensive, holistic approach. Since there are several deduping products available in the AppExchange, let’s take a look how DataGroomr compares with Cloudingo, a market leader for Salesforce deduping.
