We were previously an in-house organization but adjusted quickly to the outsourced environment.

Fidelity's community recently experienced a derecho (an intense storm that can have hurricane-force winds) that left the bank without internet access for nearly five days. Jack Henry acted quickly, determining how to extract data from each individual computer, providing the access necessary to maintain effective customer service during the natural disaster. Vander Lee commented, "Our customers expect us to be there for them all the time, especially during times of crisis. Jack Henry was extremely responsive, helping to ensure we were up and running and that our customers had uninterrupted access to their finances. It was a strong reassurance of our decision."
Stacey Zengel, senior vice president of Jack Henry & Associates and president of Jack Henry Banking, stated, "Growth-focused institutions like Fidelity understand that technology plays an important role in planning for the future; scaling is much more efficient and successful when institutions leverage streamlined systems across the enterprise, instead of relying on one-off point solutions that can't properly communicate with one another. With our core, lending, and deposit solutions, Fidelity provides the comprehensive, intuitive service that customers need to seamlessly manage their finances. We are proud to partner with Fidelity and support them not just when a natural disaster occurs, but through all circumstances, as they maintain their community focus with a more modern infrastructure."
