Small and Medium Wealth Managers first to
benefit from latest offering leveraging IBM Cloud Private
TORONTO, April 29, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - NexJ Systems
Inc. (TSX: NXJ), the pioneer of intelligent customer
management for the financial services industry, announced today
that it has chosen IBM Cloud Private to host its customer
relationship management (CRM) platform for small and medium
enterprise (SME) wealth managers.
Wealth managers in need of CRM solutions are increasingly
recognizing that workloads containing sensitive customer
information can have complex requirements when being moved back and
forth across various cloud and IT environments. In order to tap
into the flexibility and cost-saving benefits of the cloud while
maintaining compliance and security across multiple, dispersed data
sources, NexJ needed a first-class hybrid cloud strategy to support
its CRM platform.
NexJ chose IBM Cloud Private due to IBM's experience designing
hybrid cloud strategies for the financial services industry, and
the access to advanced services IBM Cloud Private provides. With
IBM Cloud Private, NexJ is leveraging a suite of services like IBM
Cloud Log Analysis with Kibana, IBM Cloud Databases for
Elasticsearch, and IBM Cloud Object Storage for mass data storage,
all orchestrated through IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service and Istio.
Now, NexJ's wealth management customers can securely streamline how
they move and manage customer data across environments, freeing
them up to spend more time focusing on driving new revenue streams
and providing better experiences for customers.
NexJ's deep vertical product has long been recognized by
industry analyst firms including Aite (Top CRM Vendor for wealth
management), and Celent (Best CRM for Wealth Management), and
selected by the wealth management divisions of notable financial
services firms including Wells Fargo, UBS and RBC. NexJ's hybrid
cloud strategy with IBM Cloud Private allows them to leverage the
success they have had refining their offerings in the largest
banks, insurers and financial services firms in the world, and now
bring their products to SME wealth managers looking for lower cost
and more flexible offerings.
Matthew Bogart, Vice President of
Marketing at NexJ Systems Inc. spoke about the advantages of
selecting IBM as its provider: "We wanted to deliver the CRM chosen
by world's leading Blue Chip financial services institutions to SME
firms. By building this solution with IBM technology and
collaborating with the IBM Partner Ecosystem team to bring it to
market, we can offer a best of breed customer management software
on an industry-leading cloud platform."
"NexJ Systems recognizes the importance of today's hybrid cloud
opportunity as its customers are demanding more flexibility and
secure access to advanced cloud technologies in order to revamp
their CRM strategies," said Lisa
Canham, Director of Partner Ecosystem, IBM Canada. "Our
priority right now is helping these businesses migrate and
modernize applications for the cloud in order to speed up their
business transformation."
