We have been using Backbase DBP since 2016 and as extension, we also use their Customer Experience Platform. Backbase is expensive as compared to its peers but the functionalities, the SDKs and the widgets are well worth it. It enabled us to go to market faster and extend our capabilities.

Reviewer Insights for: Backbase Engagement Banking Platform

Backbase Engagement Banking Platform Likes & Dislikes

Like

The extensability of the platform using available widgets enables us to cut the lead time from ui design to deployment. The SDKs support most mobile platforms and enables us to quickly set up services. The ready to use widgets and services are the main differentiation as aside from enabling fast deployment, it gives us other perspectives as to what functionalities we not incorporated and have not thought about.

Like

GOOD COMMITTED PEOPLE. STRONG VANILA HYBRID APP WITH BANK IN A BOX CAPABILITY.

Like

The backbase product vision is aligned to the where we as a bank want to be.

Dislike

Backbase can be pricey but you need to balance that off versus products like Kony in that Backbase has more empowerment and ready to use tools

Dislike

LIMITED SUPPORT BEYOND IOS & ANDROID. NO SUPPORT FOR WINDOWS & TIZEN OR INDUS OS.

Dislike

It's really the flip side to being on a socreation journey - being so close to the RnD schedule means we are especially sensitive to delays or quality issues if they arise.

    Strong Partner focused on Joint Success

    5.0
    Sep 15, 2017
    Backbase was an excellent partner in supporting their product, but also KeyBank's vision and overall goals for our online experience and market presence. They partnered with produced enhancements that were required for us to meet goals and optimize their platform for overall development and positive client impact. We aligned our timeline and overall delivery plan to create subject expertise within our organization to allow sustainability but ensure we could grow and support Backbase’s platform. The platform is extremely powerful and installed internally - therefore, we needed to be in a position to support, but scale the platform within our infrastructure and organization. This timeline allowed us to establish a strong partnership and knowledge transfer, which has put us in a position to sustain development and growth without heavy professional services. However - as we look towards strategic plans, we invite Backbase to the table to ensure success and continued platform growth to support our continued development/delivery needs.

    Worked Well : strong methodolical experience provided by the vendor / well designed technical stack / capacity to provide expertise on key topics Could be improved : project inception could have been quicker / lack of transparency on key product roadmap with high impact on our project (Widget collection 2.0) / common understanding of mobile first approach
