ABOUT VERATO

As digital transformation and AI progress at lightning speed, organizations find themselves data-rich and insights-poor. Digital transformation's promise to drive better experiences and business performance is falling short.  Data is often trapped in silos across disconnected systems of record, such as ERPs and EHRs, systems of engagement, such as CRMs, and systems of insight, such as cloud data platforms. These systems cannot integrate seamlessly without a single source of truth for identity, making it impossible to share and consume complete and trusted 360-degree views of people, organizations, and networks.  

Verato, the identity intelligence experts, powers exceptional experiences everywhere by solving the problem that drives everything else - knowing who is who. The Verato MDM Clouda, the next generation of MDM, delivers unprecedented identity intelligence by uniquely combining extraordinary identity resolution and enrichment with identity verification, AI-powered data governance, and advanced insights. Verato re-imagines MDM to be purpose-built and nimble to drive a complete and trusted 360-degree view of people, organizations, and networks across complex ecosystems with unmatched speed to value, enterprise-grade performance, and customer success.  More than 75% of the US population flows through Verato, powering a single source of truth for identity across the critical industries of healthcare, life sciences, financial services, public sector, and beyond.
