The bank is operating the product in a thin client environment, which allows it to save lot of money in reduced courier costs and data processing fees while substantially reducing new hardware investment, said Integrated Bank Technology (IBT).
Integrated image teller eliminates paper by producing ‘virtual tickets’ replacing all internal documents and the cumbersome management of this inventory, according to IBT. Furthermore, back office personnel needs are expected to be reduced due to the virtual elimination of encoding read failures.
Chris Smith, vice president at Ozona National Bank, said: We have been moving toward fully operating in a thin client environment for two years and when we selected a new core processor, the company suggested IBT’s product. We ultimately purchased integrated image teller because of the immediate cost and time advantages, in addition to the BSA software that is included in the product.
Mike Golebiowski, president of IBT, said: When operating in a thin client environment, banks experience additional benefits such as lower information technology administrative costs, enhanced data security, lower hardware costs, less energy consumption and the more efficient use of computing resources. Ozona National Bank is our first customer to operate integrated image teller in the thin client environment and we look forward to more financial institutions investing in this innovative technology.
