“NorthStar’s CIS’s automation functionality has helped Dalton Utilities optimize many areas of our organization. The system is now working “for us”. We originally began looking into automation because of the reporting capabilities but soon realized the many benefits of all of the workflows. Prior to implemention, we had a resource who ran reports outside of normal business hours resulting in overtime or lieu time. Now, NorthStar CIS automates the reports overnight and an email with hyperlinks to the reports is available to the teller immediately upon her arrival to work in the morning. This process alone has saved us time and money and has actually boosted employee morale! We have noticed much more efficient daily processing which has allowed us to become much more effective at serving our customer’s needs.”
