    Alright, we're putting our money where our mouth is. We believe in the importance of privacy and data security. That's why we've built data anonymizer -- a tool that helps you strip PII from any dataset. And you don't even need a Census account to use it. It's super straightforward. Just: ⬆️ Upload your file (CSV, Excel, whatever) 👉 Pick what to anonymize (names, emails, phone numbers...) ⬇️ Download your clean data Everything happens locally on your device. No data leaves your computer, no sign-ups, no credit cards. Give it a try and let us know what you think! https://lnkd.in/geu8SQUw

    Co-Founder of Interloop ⦁ Our solution unifies siloed data within your company so you can make more informed business decisions ⦁ Think of us as “Mission Control” for your business.

    During our recent webinar, we demonstrated data transferring quickly from Microsoft Copilot to Microsoft Fabric and then to Salesforce.   It may have looked like Magic, so I wanted to share that we accomplished this by leveraging Census and their continuous reverse ETL connector to push data changes from Fabric to Salesforce. This powerful integration allowed the Microsoft Copilot Agent to make updates in Fabric, that then triggered Census to push those changes to Salesforce in near real-time.    Census's destination connectors (150+) ensure that the data is always up-to-date and synchronized across platforms, enabling seamless and efficient workflows. We have also integrated Census directly with Fabric to enable this unique capability.   Let us know if you have any questions on how this could apply to your business. 🚀   P.S. Our webinar recording will be on our website soon, but if you would like a direct link, just send me an inMail.

    “It’s not about having perfect data. It’s about having useful data,” Jabes says. “The companies that can act on insights faster - even if those insights are imperfect - will be the ones that win.” Check out these notes from our CEO Boris Jabes chatting with Leonid Flek about the state of data today.

    Excited to share that we're welcoming many Avenue customers to the Census family! It's been great working w/ Justin Bleuel and Jeff Barg, Avenue's founders. They've been extremely fired up to make sure their customers are taken care of following Avenue's acquisition by Clay. Their commitment to their customers' success has been incredible throughout this process. For those unfamiliar, Avenue has built amazing technology for data-driven alerting, similar to how we've approached syncing at Census. We've both been dedicated to making company data truly operational. Looking forward to carrying Avenue's torch of excellence in data operations and supporting their customers' success with Census. If you're an Avenue customer reading this, feel free to reach out if you need a hand with your new Census account! #DataOps #RevOps #CustomerSuccess #StartupAcquisition
