Have worked on long-term trade finance projects and efficiently validated transaction reports
When we face any issues, we raise a ticket to Finastra, and then we track it, depending on the issues, using a separate tracking portal on a daily or weekly basis based on severity and priority. For the support team, I would give them a score of eight out of ten.

Integrated banking platform has supported unified transactions and timely customer updates
A lot of solutions are in place. We work with Temenos Transact and Outlook for emails, along with some in-house built platforms. Temenos Transact is a banking software used worldwide. We are an end user and a banking industry utilizing this platform. We are using Oracle, which is integrated with Temenos Transact. We have an SMS alert system that is integrated, and WhatsApp is integrated with Temenos Transact. You can receive runtime updates regarding your accounts on WhatsApp by using a number. These are the APIs we are using. Since this is a technical matter, an IT department member could answer it in a better way.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Finastra is user-friendly, and I don't find any drawbacks or negatives on it, so banking people can definitely feel good working on that application."
"The best features of Temenos Transact that I find valuable are its extreme configurability and comprehensive nature."
"The benefit is that it is pretty stable, and it does not crash the way other banking software that this organization has used in the past."
"This solution has provided us with an all-round banking solution that has local development capabilities."
 

Cons

"In terms of support quality and speed, they support us well, but in recent releases, we found some unusual bugs generated, which we have raised, especially regarding alignment issues."
"The Trade Finance customer frontend needs to be improved."
"Temenos Transact needs to be more optimized for other devices, as the Transact Explorer is not performing adequately over the web, causing users to revert to the older version of Temenos Transact."
"There is a dire need to improve the GUI, graphical user interface. It is pretty old-styled and boring."
