UniDate UniData

UniData is a Russian software manufacturer formed in 2014. The company's offices are located in St. Petersburg and Moscow.

Specialization

The company has its own set of industry solutions to ensure data quality and secure access to it. UniData specialists have accumulated not only technological knowledge, design experience, development and quality control of information systems, but also serious expertise in the implementation of the product in Russian and foreign markets.

For several years, specialists have been implementing large projects for the implementation of MDM class solutions and data quality management (Data Quality) for large international companies, including Maersk Line (Denmark), Printemps (France), SuperValu, Ecolab (USA), General Electric, MegaFon (Russia). As a result, the company came to the idea of ​ ​ creating its own product platform, based on the modern technological stack of free software (ACT), which has been significantly updated recently, due to the rapid growth in data volumes and methods of processing. Moreover, the accumulated experience and modern technologies have led to the abandonment of the concept of a product with a limited set of functions and the subsequent transition to the concept of a product platform that supports the possibility of expanding the basic logic and using adaptive modules to ensure adaptation to the realities of the Russian market, without reference to any specific subject area.
