Oracle partner wins banking hat-trick

FLEXCUBE from Oracle partner i-flex has been ranked 2004's top selling core banking solution worldwide by International Banking Systems (IBS). This is the third consecutive year i-flex has topped this annual league table. Martin Whybrow, editor and publisher of IBS said: "i-flex has been the most successful new entrant on the market in the last decade or so, and its position for the third consecutive year at the top is testimony to its sales capabilities and delivery track record."

FLEXCUBE runs on Oracle9i Database and Oracle9i Application Server, and i-flex is already working on a migration to the latest Oracle10g platform. For more information on i-flex, read our profile of i-flex from the December 2004-January 2005 ISV newsletter.
