APPLICATION DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT

We will work with you to design internal or external web applications for areas such as data analytics, decision support and analysis, and customer support. Our applications can be integrated with your existing systems and databases, and can process and display your complex data in intuitive, interactive graphical interfaces that help you and your constituencies reach quicker, better informed decisions.

HOSTING AND SUPPORT

We can host your web-based applications for you, or you are free to host them yourselves. Either way, we will help maintain and update the applications as your needs change and industry trends and technology evolve.


VisualCalc Platform Features & Benefits

ADVANCED CALCULATION ENGINE & INTERACTIVE “WHAT IF” ANALYSIS CAPABILITIES

Image 2-27-19 at 2.03 PM.jpg

Enables users to perform interactive “what-if” analyses. An advanced embedded calculation engine that supports state-of-the-art computational algorithms and simulation techniques such as Monte Carlo methods drives the results of these analyses. Users can manipulate a set of intuitive input mechanisms, such as buttons and sliders, to change a multitude of organization-defined variables. The impact of these changes is immediately shown in clear, easy-to-understand tables, graphs and charts. This helps users reach the best possible decision for their specific needs.

INTUITIVE VISUAL USER INTERFACES

Supports a variety of user input mechanisms (sliders, input boxes, check boxes, etc.) and display formats (bar charts, line graphs, pie charts, gas gauges, etc.).

UNIVERSAL PLATFORM SUPPORT

Offers universal compatibility across both desktop and mobile devices, including tablets and smartphones. Based on standard HTML, with no requirement for graphic plug-ins like Java or Flash. 

RESPONSIVE DESIGN

Applications automatically reformat their interface to optimize user viewing and interaction for specific target screen sizes and devices, including desktop windows, tablets, and mobile phones.

CUSTOMIZABLE FOR FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS AND BRANDING STANDARDS

Can be customized to incorporate your requirements, including overall functionality, business rules, user interface standards, etc. Can also be customized to incorporate an organization’s branding and graphical standards, so that the tool seamlessly integrates with the organization’s website, and has a consistent “look and feel” with the organization’s other marketing properties and collateral.

INTEGRATION WITH INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL SYSTEMS AND DATABASES

Offers complete integration with an organization’s existing systems, enabling you to auto-populate the tools with current data, such as customer account balances. Can also be integrated with third-party systems and data sources, such as current interest rates or customer account balances at other institutions. Provides your users with a complete, accurate, and personalized snapshot of their specific situation. This holistic view also helps your internal associates work with customers to optimize their decisions.

INTEGRATED DATA CAPTURE-AND-FORWARD CAPABILITIES

Transforms applications from a point solution to a comprehensive, end-to-end customer service, lead generation and sales conversion platform. Enables organizations to capture user input data, and then forward this information, along with the results of the analysis, to an organization’s internal systems, such as lead management, CRM, and customer support systems. Analysis results can also be used to automatically prepare and send customized follow-up communications (in any organization-defined format, such as a loan application) back to users, helping to move the sales conversion cycle forward.

Engage Audiences With Calculator Explainer Videos

VisualCalc can also incorporate their calculators into educational animated videos that can be deployed on a financial institution’s website, applications, or social media platforms. These videos are designed to meet the needs and preferences of today’s demographics, giving them an engaging and compelling introduction to the benefits these calculators provide. These videos can help financial institutions attract new leads and customers, improve existing customer satisfaction, and generate an expanded social media presence. The video below, based on our Credit Card Calculator, is an example of what VisualCalc can create around any of the calculators that we offer.

We are happy to work with you to incorporate your branding into an existing video implementation, or create a new video that fully incorporates your branding and messages.
