Data entry prioritises speed and low cost per record. Data cataloging prioritises accuracy, classification, and usability. Low-cost data entry consistently produces data that requires cleansing and correction — often at a cost that exceeds the original data entry contract. Cataloging is done correctly once, not fixed repeatedly.
