We need to clean up our database for current addresses & deceased people. I've checked with Blackbaud about their tools, but am wondering if anyone has an opinion about using their Data Health Services. They are a bit expensive, but my feeling is that it's seamless back into the Raiser's Edge and that might out weigh the costs. If you have had better luck using another organization or service for this, please point me in that direction so I can research them.

Thank you for any feedback.

We use the Data Management System. It's pretty great. AddressAccelerator finds zip code+4 and county, etc. There's a package deal that includes 24 hr technical assistance, quarterly AddressAccelerator, program updates and NCOA. The Data Health center also lets you run a database-wide Address validation. And the great thing about using the NCOA with Blackbaud/RE is that it is SOOO simple. And the update gets back very quickly. 2-3 business days.
