Coastal Federal Credit Union Selects BlueStripe FactFinder To Ensure Consistent Customer Experience via Personal Teller Machines


Research Triangle Park, NC (PRWEB) June 05, 2012

BlueStripe Software, a leader in application and transaction monitoring for IT Operations, today announced that Coastal Federal Credit Union is using BlueStripes FactFinder to ensure the availability and performance of critical business systems including Coastals innovative Personal Teller Machine (PTM) system.

The PTM system allows Coastal Credit Union members to interact with a live teller via a video banking kiosk by communicating through two-way video, touch screens and a private audio network. The availability of the Teller application and the systems that support it is critical to a positive customer experience. FactFinder enabled the IT team to clearly see exactly which systems made up the Teller service and how each of them was performing.

FactFinder gives us a precision we did not previously have, eliminating the guesswork when finding the root cause of application slowdowns, commented Chris Whitesock, IT Director, Coastal Federal Credit Union. FactFinder is a necessity in our data center, giving us real-time visibility into every connection in our applications even those we didnt know existed.

The FactFinder Transaction Monitoring solution automatically discovers, maps, and monitors all business transactions running across the infrastructure. FactFinder measures performance, hop-by-hop, everywhere that transactions go, across tiers, across platforms, and across architectures even into virtual machines, private cloud, and third party services. When performance or availability problems occur, FactFinder follows the slow or hung transaction right to the problem component; then drills down the server stack to determine why the problem occurred.

FactFinder is also the key component of Coastals Service Level Monitoring process, delivering the transaction performance metrics that are the cornerstone of enforceable application SLAs. Additionally, Coastal plans to use FactFinder in its corporate test environment as part of the process for rolling out vendor upgrades. FactFinder gives Coastal a clear view of dependencies along a transaction chain, highlighting potential issues the upgrade may cause.

BlueStripe is proud to be an instrumental piece of Coastals leading edge, interactive teller application that breaks the mold of bankers hours and provides better service to customers, said Chris Neal, CEO of BlueStripe Software. BlueStripes ability to provide a unique, Operations-centric view of transaction performance is critical to understanding service levels and quickly identifying any issues impacting application performance.

ProviDyns Assessment and Readiness Program Helps Ensure Technology and Business Goals of SMBs are on PAR

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) March 30, 2012

ProviDyn, a provider of IT support, strategy and services, announces the ProviDyn Assessment and Readiness (PAR) program designed to evaluate the technology infrastructure of small and medium-sized businesses (SMB) and, in turn, uncover opportunities to increase efficiency and determine readiness for new technology.

For many SMBs, a focus on growth can result in a reactive approach to managing technology. However, problems arise when an incident, such as an equipment failure or security breach, negatively impacts productivity. Often times, these situations can be prevented with awareness and proactive management of a companys IT infrastructure. ProviDyn developed PAR to provide growing businesses with a comprehensive view of their existing technology infrastructure, along with expert advice on selecting the best technologies and solutions, increasing efficiency and planning for anticipated future needs — before an issue arises.

The ProviDyn Assessment and Readiness Service is a four step process:

Stakeholder Interviews Conversations with business owners, department heads and stakeholders to determine current IT issues and successes, along with goals for the future. Understanding the company and its drivers for growth help determine if the right technology is in place to drive the business toward meeting its goals.

Physical Discovery An evaluation of the current systems and network infrastructure to determine quality, brand and model, age and proper deployment. This step also includes checking for proper cabling, switching and routing, along with inspecting backup system hardware.

Environmental Discovery – Identifies any environmental factors, such as exposure to heat, dust and particulate matter. This step will also note vulnerability to fire and water (flood or fire suppression), theft and possible protection from employee tampering or accidental damage.

Digital Discovery A review of current software licensing, versions of licensing, legal and technological compliance. The ProviDyn team will also look at the configuration of digital systems to see if they are able to prevent both internal and external security threats. This will help identify strategic alternatives such as updating to a more current software version, selecting a better software for a particular job and/or configuring firewalls for added security.

Our experience with SMBs shows that a one size fits all approach is not effective in establishing a reliable technology infrastructure and scaling to meet future growth, said Hamish Davidson, co-founder and president of ProviDyn. Taking what weve learned from working with SMBs, we created PAR to give clients a custom assessment of their current technology situation, identify gaps or inefficiencies in IT systems and resources and provide strategic recommendations for selecting the best technology and services in the future.

About ProviDyn

ProviDyn provides technology expertise, services and support to Atlanta-area small and medium-sized businesses. Backed by certified technology professionals, ProviDyns services include managed services, cloud computing solutions, virtualization, help desk and computer support, IT strategy, network security, backup and disaster recovery and IP telephony.
