I have to say that it was rocky for a bit but after the change to Candescent has been great and very promising for the future. For this reason, during RFP we decided to stay and see what Candescent will do in the next few years.

Like

ease of use

Like

The ease of use. Logical navigation. Increase in ease of adding valuable partners to our offering.

Dislike

with being a very small digital team, it would be nice to be able to partner more with hands on assistance at times. While release notes are coming faster, not a bad thing, it is hard to determine what products may best fit our FI. Overall, products are good and our Rep is AMAZING

Dislike

Hard to customize with a small team or few resources.

Dislike

Implementations for projects takes to long to bring to point of testing and bring live, We've had several products that were described as easy lift that have had roadblocks even with our participation in the process.
