According to Stacey Zengel, general manager of Imaging Solutions for Jack Henry & Associates, "SaaS solutions are attracting significant and growing interest from diverse businesses that want to largely operate in-house but outsource the hardware component of their systems. This hybrid operating environment enables businesses to retain complete control over their operations while reducing their information technology expenditures, compliance initiatives, and security risks. With Synergy Express, our customers remain responsible for managing their own ECM content which is pushed to our secure storage facility and replicated to another geographic location for disaster recovery purposes."

Synergy Express has minimal client hardware requirements, typically consisting of only workstations with document scanners to capture and index document images. This SaaS offering provides state-of-the-art security and ensures compliance with all related regulatory requirements including document encryption, retention, and storage mandates. This solution also ensures business continuity with a replicated data center, end-to-end business continuity planning and testing, complete failover operations, and routine back-up processes.

According to Tony Wormington, president of Jack Henry & Associates, "Outsourcing key business processes or specific components of those processes is a growing trend as businesses look for ways to improve their operating efficiencies while reducing their operating costs. In response, we continually look for opportunities to expand our offering with solutions that we expect to have broad market appeal and that enable us to further leverage our existing infrastructure. We believe Synergy Express is an important addition since it enables diverse businesses to seamlessly archive and access imaged documents and reports, is completely scalable for businesses of virtually any size, and repositions our proven ECM platform as a cost-effective SaaS solution that requires minimal up-front investments."

Synergy Express will be sold inside and outside the financial services industry by Jack Henry & Associates' three divisions -- Jack Henry Banking(TM), Symitar(TM), and ProfitStars(R).

Alabama-based Peoples Southern Bank, which installed CIF 20/20 in-house in 1986 and now has approximately $138 million in assets, is among the banks that migrated to outsourcing. According to Sandra Minor, the bank's chief technology officer, "Like most businesses we relied very heavily on independent silos of knowledge and expertise. We evaluated a variety of solutions to this common problem that ranged from an aggressive internal training program to moving from in-house processing to outsourcing. Our visits with other banks that are outsourcing their information and transaction processing to Jack Henry Banking convinced us that we simply didn't want the responsibility of data processing anymore. Our move from a CIF 20/20-based in- house operation to a CIF 20/20-based outsourced operation was seamless since it didn't require a conversion. On the Monday morning after the weekend migration, our employees literally couldn't see a single difference -- other than they needed a new password or two -- in the way they did their jobs and served our customers. Our staff immediately embraced the change and more importantly, the migration was completely transparent to our customers -- completely. Outsourcing has made our day-to-day work life easier and if we knew then what we know now, we would have moved to outsourcing sooner. Outsourcing is the best thing we've done for our bank in years."

Tony Wormington, president of Jack Henry & Associates, said, "The move from in-house processing to outsourcing is a growing trend and we are proactively helping a number of our core clients evaluate outsourcing. Outsourcing enables banks to leverage our extensive infrastructure and processing environment to eliminate the capital expenditures required for in-house systems, the need for resident resources to operate and manage in-house data centers, and long-term capacity planning. Outsourcing also provides banks with the ability to focus on their core competencies with ongoing access to advancing technology, strict regulatory compliance, and our technology and security experts."

Kevin Williams, CFO of Jack Henry & Associates, concluded, "Our outsourcing business represents a significant component of our recurring revenue, and these migrations have the potential to generate more revenue long-term largely based on an outsourced bank's ability to implement more of our complementary solutions without the initial capital expenditures required for in-house installations. In the near-term these migrations replace in-house maintenance fee income with monthly processing fees, and our customers typically implement additional complementary products during the migration to outsourcing."
