The features were pretty straightforward
I do not know why it was conflicting with my system. I sent a report to Trusteer hoping they could solve the issue and I get my system back as soon as possible without any more conflicts after the Windows updates. It seems to me if It conflicts with Windows that they should deactivate the issues or (even worse) delete them at our expense. I would like them to make it as user-friendly as possible. Simplicity is what we need. Load and go. Also, a help button that we hopefully never use would be nice.

A good designer for the UI, stable, and scalable
I give the solution a ten out of ten. Unlike other technologies, Nice Actimize Fraud & Authentication Management is partially pre-built, making it easy to understand what needs to be done and how to complete the work. Furthermore, due to the pre-existing code, there is no need to start from scratch, providing a better understanding of the current situation and what needs to be implemented. Our organization moved to Nice Actimize Fraud & Authentication Management because the solution is an upgraded version and also it provides many benefits as we can easily activate rules. Nice Actimize Fraud & Authentication Management is very convenient and it provides easy access to everything. When utilizing the solution for the first time, always start with a lower environment such as a development environment. Only use Dell and SIT, and do not go directly to production. The solution may have an impact on the bank and large transactions.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The features were pretty straightforward. I just used them as I went along with very little interference all the years that I have used it."
"The case management tool is user friendly."
"The most valuable feature is the designer, which allows us to connect to UI and build things directly, such as creating a platform with our synchronizing policy manager rules, without any additional requirements."
"They have a very expansive transaction monitoring fleet. They have a lot of models and rules to choose from. Its flexibility or ability to customize a model is very impressive as compared to other platforms."
"The tool helped my clients track some fraudulent activities which couldn’t have been possible without the solution. Once the solution is deployed, the system of the client needs to be upgraded and overhauled to reflect the new system. The end users can see the benefits of it. The integration of the solution is increasing the customer base of our clients since more customers from other banks have decided to join the client bank due to the level of security."
"The solution user-friendly interactive, informative and it is also very light."
"I like the tracking methodology. Though it was implemented on-premises, the compliance is compatible with it. It will have certain modifications with RPM and APR. It has good exposure from a compliance point of view."
"The core engine seems to be better than the rest for pattern recognition. It is able to process large amounts of data."
"I like the score generated on the Actimize platform for each customer transaction. Those are transactions per second, accommodating millions of transactions per second. That's the best feature of Actimize."
 

Cons

"I would like them to make it as user-friendly as possible. Simplicity is what we need. Load and go."
"After a Windows update, it started acting up. It blocked several programs. It became inactive after the Windows update and I had to remove Trusteer, allowing my computer to go back to its norm."
"I would say — Actimize is not being moved forward by Nice."
"One of the problems that our clients generally talk about is the price of the product when they have to purchase the product and the licenses for it. Those are on the higher side."
"Licensing costs are high compared to other products in the market."
"It would be better if it integrated with other tools. Actimize uses many databases, and everything on Actimize has been deployed to the database. On the customer side, on the front end side, if they focus more on integrating with other applications, it can make the tool better. The reporting feature and dashboards could be better. In the next release, I would like them to incorporate a Tableau-type reporting structure within this tool."
"I would like for it to proactively give suggestions or hints before initiating the transaction. It could make use of the data that has already occurred, like machine learning. It should learn patterns from specific countries."
"The patch section has room for improvement."
"It has become too complex for its own good with a lot of versions. They are trying to do too much. Instead of keeping it sort of traditional and keeping the core search engine as a standalone and having analytical bolt-ons, they have decided to jam it all into the same product, which made the product overly complex and difficult to implement."
"The solution needs to mitigate and provide an update for one listener process that keeps failing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I don't know how licensing is handled in the current organization. I know that Actimize provides an option for yearly licensing because that's what we had in my previous job."
"I don't like the length of our vendor contracts because it kills our flexibility."
"Nice Actimize Fraud & Authentication Management is an expensive product."
"It is reasonable for enterprise customers."
"We need a separate license for each of the packages, such as the core package, self-development package, and customization package."
