If you’ve ever renovated your home, you know it can be a difficult process. Eating dinner in your garage for six months isn’t exactly a picnic, but the end result—a beautiful new kitchen where you’ll create meals and memories for years to come—makes the journey worthwhile.Implementing a new software solution at your financial institution can be a difficult process, too. While there probably isn’t a five-star meal at the end of your journey, there is the promise of faster processes, enhanced operational efficiencies and stronger relationships with customers.

The implementation of technology sets the tone for an organization’s digital transformation, so it’s important to have great tools to use along the way. You can’t renovate with a can opener in the same way that you can’t implement a new software with outdated or irrelevant processes. nCino is a partner who has the right tools to help you achieve your goals, along with the long-term vision and experience your institution needs to succeed.

When undertaking a project, whether it’s a home renovation or a software implementation, a trusted partner is key. At nCino, we can’t help you with your kitchen, but we know a thing or two about software. Below are five tips to help ensure a successful implementation journey.

In 2021, the number of small businesses in the United States reached 32.5 million, making up 99.9% of total US businesses. In other words, there’s nothing “small” about small businesses.

However, the small business banking experience can be fragmented and often requires in-person interactions for simple banking needs, such as opening an account. nCino is excited to make the first step in the small business banking experience even easier with our Business Deposit Account Opening solution.

nCino’s Business Deposit Account Opening Solution enhances the small business experience by meeting the expectations of small business owners while solving the main issues businesses and financial institutions (FIs) face in the account opening process. These challenges include:

Arrow Financial Corporation’s goal is to meet customers wherever they want to be met. In order to make this possible, the Bank has implemented multiple nCino solutions, offering digitalexperiences to their customers while maintaining the strong human-to-human relationships that are vital to the Arrow culture.

Community banks are facing challenges from larger banks and changing consumer preferences. nCino can help them address these challenges by providing a digital platform that streamlines operations and improves customer service.By providing essential banking services in small towns and rural communities, community banks play a crucial role in the operation of the U.S. financial system and overall economy. While every community bank is different, they all have at least one thing in common: the need to streamline and standardize current processes, increase efficiency and find innovative ways to better serve their customers and communities.

In today’s rapidly transforming technology environment, financial institutions (FIs) must think beyond businesses or individuals as a customer and truly see them as a Universal Customer. A Universal Customer is someone who has been empowered with such an excellent banking experience that they want to stay with that one FI for all their financial needs. While Universal Customers deeply trust their FIs, they also have other expectations for service, including, speed, simplicity, and accessibility.

To attract, retain and grow these valuable Universal Customers, financial institutions must use digital mobility, artificial intelligence, automation and data analytics to learn more about what customers want at different stages of their financial lifecycle.

At nCino, our customers are our top priority. We improve each day by listening to their feedback and continuously innovating on their behalf. In mid-October, we invited more than sixty banking leaders and executives to The NoMad London to network with one other and with nCino leaders, learn about our recent product advances, and provide valuable input on our future roadmap.

For those who couldn’t attend in person, we’ve collected some of the exciting highlights and key takeaways from this incredible event.

As economic conditions grow more volatile, financial institutions (FIs) are all wondering the same thing: how can we build resilience and maintain or grow a competitive position in these uncertain times?In many cases, this debate centers around where to reduce spending or which projects can be put on hold as efforts and priorities are reshaped. However, seeking savings by cutting or pausing digital transformation projects can do more harm than good.
