Why Data Management Should Drive your Document Automation Vendor Decision
One of the criteria often overlooked by asset managers during the vendor evaluation process is data management.
The urge to minimize the data problem during these discussions is understandable. Document or website production is the marketing team’s goal.

In this blog, we are going to discuss why your data process should drive your automation vendor decision. There are a variety of different kinds of vendors who can automate your marketing documents. So, you’ll want to determine whether you want a vendor/product that requires internal data source and process management or a vendor who will take responsibility for creating and supporting a quality data process.
