  • Mobile Banking Application Proving Very Popular, Jack Henry Says

    December 9, 2008 Alex Woodie

    These are tough economic times, to be sure. But if there’s one bright spot in the forecast for the IT industry, it’s the surging interest in mobile computing. To that end, Jack Henry & Associates announced that its browser-based mobile banking application, whimsically called goDough, has been successfully adopted by more than 100 customers over the last 12 months, enabling its customers’ customers to check dwindling account balances with unparalleled ease.

    Unveiled in November 2007, goDough enables customers of banks and credit unions that use Jack Henry’s core banking software to do many of the things they would do in a branch location, including balance inquiries, transaction viewing, transfers between accounts, and viewing alerts. It also allows users to do some things that aren’t possible in the bank, such as making payments directly from the mobile phone (thanks to Jack Henry’s NetTeller Bill Pay solution).

    The software runs in a Web browser; is compatible with any Web-enabled cell phone, regardless of make or phone carrier; and works with all three of Jack Henry’s core banking systems: SilverLake, CIF 20/20, and Core Director. All account types, including checking and credit accounts, are supported by the software.

    Since goDough launched, 103 Jack Henry customers have adopted the software, putting the product in the hands of hundreds of thousands of people. The system has been implemented across 34 mobile service carriers and dozens of types of cell phones, proving its capability to cross mobile boundaries.

    goDough looks to be a big hit in the years to come for Jack Henry, according to Kathy Hooker Burress, president of Symitar, a subsidiary of Jack Henry.

    “Mobile banking is a rapidly emerging, service-related technology that enables members to stay even more connected to their credit unions,” Hooker Burress says. “This member-facing technology expands the ‘anytime’ convenience we now expect with Internet banking with the ‘anytime and anywhere’ convenience of mobile banking.”

    Integrate Virtual Tape to Automate Your Backups And Strengthen Your Ability To Recover From Cyber Attacks And Disasters

    With most IT departments stretched thin, finding something that can quickly free up IT time is definitely a bonus. That’s why it’s important to stop and take a look at integrating virtual tape into your backup and recovery. Virtual tape is one of those technologies where once you have it, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. See a demo and get a $50 gift card.

    But what is it about using virtual tape that makes it so worthwhile? Why is it that so many IBM i shops are already using or considering using virtual tape for all or part of their backup and recovery systems?

    Virtual tape and virtual tape libraries offer a way to both simplify and strengthen backup and recovery operations. By incorporating virtual tape technology, automation of backups becomes possible resulting in hundreds of hours saved annually for IT departments and personnel.

    “We needed to find a replacement that would lower the maintenance cost and reduce complexity of our backup and recovery functions without a major disruption to our operations.” David Fray, Director of Enterprise Systems, ABC Financial

    LaserVault ViTL is a virtual tape and tape library solution developed specifically for use with IBM Power Systems (from AS/400 to iSeries to Power 9s). With ViTL you can:

    • Replace physical tape and tape libraries and eliminate associated delays
    • Automate backup operations, including the ability to purge or archive backups
    • Remotely manage your backups – no need to be onsite with your server
    • Save backups to a dedupe appliance and the cloud
    • Recover your data at lightspeed greatly improving your ability to recover from cyberattacks
    • And so much more

    Sign-up now to see a ViTL online demo and get a $50 Amazon e-gift card when the demo is complete as our way of saying thanks for your time. Plus when you sign-up you’ll receive a free facts comparison sheet on using virtual tape vs tape so you can compare the functionality for yourself.
