Easy transaction monitoring but requires improvement in handling high user volumes
We can definitely improve the Nice Actimize Fraud & Authentication Management tool because I sometimes encounter issues while searching for particular customer transactions; it results in errors and I cannot easily find specific transactions. If there is improvement in those points, we can easily identify customer details and detect spikes in transactions to cover money laundering. Regarding specific features, I think AI should be implemented in the Nice Actimize Fraud & Authentication Management tool. AI should be integrated for better analysis and suggestions because nowadays, AI is very important for all organizations. If implemented, it can easily identify transaction details, reducing the need for extra manpower.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"To be honest, I had never used a similar application before but based on my experiences using Actimize, it's a solid application and very user-friendly as well."
"The core engine seems to be better than the rest for pattern recognition, and it is able to process large amounts of data."
"The solution is easier to set up, configure, and use than other products."
"We don't have problems with stability and scalability, and it is a definitely scalable product that from the user point of view has the scalability to handle an adequate workload."
"It's a very good product for compliance and transaction monitoring for anti-money laundering."
"The most valuable feature is automation which makes our transaction capture 40 percent easier."
"The solution user-friendly interactive, informative and it is also very light."
"The scoring mechanism is good."
"Our clients have definitely avoided losing money on multiple occasions due to fraud."
"I think that it is a great partnership if you are looking for reliable fraud prevention for your company."
"Riskified's KPIs are probably the highest in the industry."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the scoring and the yes, or no function."
 

Cons

"It is complex in terms of daily maintenance. Other detection platforms run on a 15-day or one-month window, whereas this particular platform runs daily. Therefore, it requires daily maintenance. If there is a delay due to this daily maintenance, it creates a snowball effect impacting the subsequent days. It takes a lot of effort to catch up and get into BAU mode. It would be great if they could include certain features to make the daily processing less complex, but I don't see that happening. It is a complex product, and with each version release, it is just becoming more and more complex."
"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."
"Processes don't function when front end is down."
"It is complex in terms of daily maintenance. Other detection platforms run on a 15-day or one-month window, whereas this particular platform runs daily."
"It has become too complex for its own good with a lot of versions."
"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."
"One of the issues with the product is that when the front end is down, the processes don't work."
"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."
"The user interface could be more intuitive."
"We didn't have the same consultants Riskified's side throughout the deployment, so we sometimes had to redefine the Business requests."
"The fraud channel is a sensitive spot, so it's always complex."
"I can't think of any issues that we've faced that need to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We need a separate license for each of the packages, such as the core package, self-development package, and customization package."
"I don't like the length of our vendor contracts because it kills our flexibility."
"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."
"It is reasonable for enterprise customers."
"Nice Actimize Fraud & Authentication Management is an expensive product."
"It is determined by the requirements of each company."
