Overview
Send real-time alerts
Banking institutions are facing more competition than ever — and often from non-traditional sources that promise better, more customized experiences. Bank leaders need ways to outshine competitors and increase customer loyalty. That’s why the ability to send event-driven alerts in real time is crucial. With real-time alerts, customers can receive relevant information when and where they need it.
