Mortgage companies use Calyx Point software
for managing accounts at all steps of the loan process. The program is
equally useful for comparing data and developing marketing strategies.
While it can be installed locally on a computer, there are additional
benefits that come with running Calyx Point on a data server.
Software-as-a-service (Saas) is a policy in which clients pay for the
monthly use of an application at a flat rate, which generally includes
full support. This route can be useful for mortgage companies that are
looking to reduce their IT costs, but there are additional benefits from
using a server setup.
Calyx Point Mortgage Data Servers Increase Usability
It can take
several weeks to setup and configure Calyx Point software when it is
installed directly on a computer. With the
data server and
Saas arrangement this time is reduced to around one to two days. A data
server also allows employees to access their accounts from any secure
Internet connection.
A data server keeps private
data and access limited as required by the mortgage company. It is
set so that only certain users can view particular accounts or make
changes to files. Additionally, all aspects of Calyx Point mortgage and
loan software work just like the locally installed version. Software
licenses do not need to be purchased since the provider handles these
costs and they are included as part of the monthly service bill.
FocusIt, Inc. offers
full-service data servers for Calyx Point software with the inclusion of
Microsoft Office and complete technical support.
