Legacy platforms are familiar, reliable (most of the time) and deeply integrated into your bank’s operations.

However, these systems are often cumbersome, inflexible and ill-equipped to handle custom changes.

The fear of disrupting established workflows and the perceived risks of transitioning to a new system can make staying put seem like the safer choice.

But consider this: staying with a legacy system is not without risks. Outdated platforms can lead to inefficiencies, most of which is increased frustration by the lack of custom changes you need to meet your specific department workflow.
