We take a new bank live every day and we are implementing remotely to support our customers during these challenging times. We continue to invest heavily in R&D, more than any competitor in this space, and have made strategic investments to enhance our cloud-native platform with the latest technology, including AI, microservices, and richest banking functionality. We believe our position in the Magic Quadrant is validation of these investments, our strategic vision and global customer success.”
According to Gartner Analysts, Vittorio D’Orazio and Don Free, authors of the report:
“The demand for core banking packages is expected to grow in 2020 as banks deliver on digitalization strategies while facing the consequences from the COVID-19 pandemic.”
Temenos Transact core banking software offers the winning combination of advanced cloud-native, AI and API-first technology and the richest banking functionality to help banks transform faster.
Today, Temenos Transact is delivered as Temenos SaaS and can also be deployed natively on all main commercial cloud platforms or a private cloud, allowing banks to take the full benefit of lower operating costs and elastic scalability of these services, as well as benefiting from in-built operational resilience. Temenos’ technology microservices architecture helps banks replace their legacy systems at their own pace and deliver additional services and capabilities on top of multiple systems. Temenos Transact is also now pre-integrated with Temenos Infinity, the breakthrough digital front office product, to deliver an end-to-end digital transformation.
AI has emerged as a top priority for banks and with the July 2019 acquisition of Logical Glue, Temenos is the first to bring transparency and explainability of AI automated decision making to the banking industry.
