There are optimal synergies between the mutually complementary product portfolios due to the shared technology foundations, and many modules can be integrated interchangeably, thanks to the use of modern open architecture based on micro-services and state-of-the-art deployment methods.
This move will allow existing and future customers to benefit from an even broader range of digital offerings from a single source. Due to the acquisition, CREALOGIX Digital Banking Hub will be complemented by a large number of innovative new modules, such as
