Data Quality and Manipulation
An easy-to-use designer interface and out-of-the-box tools.
Our DI module is Agility’s behind-the-scenes powerhouse, designed, like everything in our suite, with simplicity in mind. Agility DI’s intuitive, rich, graphical design interface lets you accomplish everything the most skilled code developers can, in a fraction of the time, and with no manual coding.
You get out-of-the-box functionality, configurable directly from the designer interface for access to the same web service our client applications use. There, numerous routine maintenance tasks – such as search/lookup, create/modify, duplicate, link/move, sort, rename – can be completely automated.
Our pre-built toolkit and drag-and-drop environment make the set-up and performance of data validation, data remodeling, mass data manipulation and all other DI tasks much easier than ever before.
