Retail Banking Industry – Application Performance Management

The way business is done across the retail banking industry today is profoundly changing. When it comes to mission-critical business processes like online banking, fund transfers, credit and loan application and approvals, performance matters! Customers today reach out to your institution through web-based services using browsers and smart phone devices of every kind. Quality service in this complexity is challenging to monitor and manage. And, traditional performance monitoring tools are stuck inside your organization’s firewall. You simply don’t have the insight you need to ensure that your customers are getting thorough, fast, uninterrupted service.

In fact, according to a recent 2011 Equation Research survey of 500 online banking users:

  • 30 percent were less likely to purchase additional services from the institution following a bad online experience
  • 17 percent would share this experience with a friend, family member, peer, or write about it online
  • 13 percent would use another financial institution or provider of the service after a bad experience
  • 7 percent would actually close their account after a bad experience

 

When your organization is unaware of the kind of experience that your customers are having with your institution, you are at a risk for:

  • Poor customer satisfaction
  • Potential loss of immediate revenue / customer lifetime revenue
  • Lost opportunities to cross-sell or up-sell
  • And most difficult to regain, a negative impact on your brand
