Michael Reh, Senior Vice President and Global Head, Infosys Finacle:
"Today, technology is disrupting banking. Mobility, Big Data, Cloud, and Internet of things are radically changing the way banks are interacting with their customers and running their operations. To keep pace with customers' expectations and achieve profitable growth, banks need to accelerate their modernization plans. We believe that these scores corroborate Finacle's position as the best platform to support the transformation goals of banks across all segments. We are continuously investing in the latest and emerging technologies to ensure that our clients and we stay ahead of the curve."
Don Free, Research VP, Gartner, Inc.:
"Few undertakings are as critical to a bank's success - or to a bank CIO's career - as a core banking renewal project. Bank CIOs face intense pressure to get core banking renewal done right, and get it done right the first time. To assist with this task, Gartner has developed this research document, which provides the means to matrix a bank's business and IT context with the critical capabilities of core banking systems."
