WWK Insurance Group Maximizes Quality Of Client Database With Evoke Axio(TM); Market Leader in Fund-Based Life Insurance Implements Evoke’s Axio Solution

EAST HANOVER, N.J. and HALLBERGMOOS, Germany, April 5, 2005
Evoke Software Corporation ("Evoke"), a leading provider of data discovery, profiling and quality management software announced today that WWK- Versicherungsgruppe ("WWK") has chosen Evoke Axio(TM) as its data quality solution for data migration projects.
Founded in 1884 in Munich, Germany, WWK has been a market leader in fund- based life insurance while also providing an excellent portfolio of personal, property and casualty insurance policies. Accurate, reliable, trusted data is critical to WWK's day-to-day business. With nearly one million life insurance policies and revenues of 24 billion euros, WWK must ensure the quality and accuracy of customer data held within the current sequentially-organized system is accurately transferred into a relational database.
Working with the Evoke Axio Product Suite, WWK can identify questionable data and adjust it before it causes migration issues. They also can verify key structures and more precisely map source data into target systems using Evoke Axio's column profiling and redundancy profiling features, which allows WWK to accelerate the data analysis part of the project dramatically -- in some cases by a factor of eight times -- offering a significant reduction in project operating costs.
Georg Haupt, WWK's Project Manager, commented, "Evoke Axio provides much more information and a level of analysis not typical of conventional data profiling solutions and techniques. We chose Evoke Axio because it fully meets the project requirements, including ease of use and non-duplication of data - important evaluation criteria not met by other products evaluated. Evoke also offers comprehensive services designed to provide best practices and methodologies to rapidly derive value from this project."
