| Tech Review - Data Consolidation using Network Attached Storage (NAS) technology
- by Scott Seifel |
||||
|
Unfortunately, storage space needs continue to outpace most hard drive capacities, along with the cost of managing such data. Our experience has seen the high cost of data storage to be associated with the constant need to replace or add hard drives and servers, which required the shutdown of servers or degraded performance since servers usually run applications needed by the users. How can small to midsize businesses maximize server uptime while utilizing a robust method of increasing storage space? Network Attached Storage (NAS) and Storage Area Network (SAN). |

| Software Focus -
IBS helps Legacy Banks provide better customer service through our
CD Manager application |
|||
|
Legacy Banks approached IBS in the fall of 2005 with an idea to help their customers achieve their financial goals - offering a convenient tool to help manage multiple Certificates of Deposit (CDs). IBS staff then worked with the Marketing Department to create an application that made that information available on demand. |
|||
|
Launched in summer 2006, CD-Manager, a comprehensive CD management tool developed by IBS, allows the
associates at each Legacy Banks branch to showcase a
customer's CD portfolio in a single glance. The program provides bar graphs, which illustrate months-to-maturity, rates, and earnings while colorful pie charts reveal distribution of funds by account. The program also allows customers to view proposed scenarios of potential earnings on new CDs they may open. Legacy associates are able to provide a variety of CD savings options and can help point customers toward products that best fit their needs. The customer can then leave the bank with an easy-to-read printout of their CD portfolio or proposed CD savings plan. |
