IT company Financial Objects is making available a software application, built on Microsoft technology, that it says can consolidate information from disparate systems into one central data warehouse. This enables users to access real-time, consolidated information from all areas of the business, including historic and current data.
Customers include Standard Bank, Nedcor and Aberdeen Asset Management.
“Too many technology suppliers offer a standard service, or part of a service, and try to make their customers fit their product,” says Peter Caddick, Head of Product Strategy, Activebank Division. “Our clients played a huge part in the development of Orchestrate so that we could develop something of genuine benefit to them. The three common obstacles that our clients identified were a complexity of their systems and data integration requirements, the time taken to implement a solution and the lack of flexibility to be able to customise solutions easily. Simplicity, speed of implementation and versatility were at the forefront of Orchestrate’s design.”
