Systems Integration
We needed a system that would work with our existing infrastructure. We were looking for a technology partner that let us build the origination system quickly, but also let us customize as much as we wanted. Zoot technology gave us the ability to grow and adapt our platform, address potential fraud, and identify the total relationship our customers had with our company. We were able to focus on our business goals while Zoot focused on building the technology.
—Ann Watkins chief risk officer for Wachovia’s Card and Payments Solution Group
Over the last 20 years—and much more so in the past three—Zoot’s experience has been that many companies are unable to implement their best business strategies because their technology has become too complex and disjointed. Credit decisioning or loan origination solutions that should enable business success instead limit growth due to components that can’t work together.
Don’t Rip, Mend
Zoot is able to solve complex integration challenges and save our clients the costs associated with the “rip-and-replace” mentality. We have developed a sophisticated middleware approach, enabling systems to communicate in the way they require rather than standardizing communication requirements across proprietary, home-grown, and legacy systems. Our approach combines flexible tools with sophisticated services to create fully integrated systems.
Changes Again? No Problem
Some examples of our systems integration success include:
- using a SOA- (service oriented architecture) approach to easily add vendors and data sources;
- bridging legacy systems during a merger or acquisition to speed the transition;
- linking dozens of data and service providers into solutions for greater versatility in meeting decisioning needs; and
- seamlessly connecting numerous input channels as well as multiple origination systems.
Zoot’s solves integration challenges by working with all systems—including bridging the frontend and backend of the house—to achieve the level of integration necessary to achieve FI’s business objectives. This supports an increased return on investment as the tools allow your solution to grow with you as your strategies and the expectations of your customers change.
