HOLLY SPRINGS, N.C. - Paragon Application Systems, provider of ATM and EFT configuration, simulation and testing software, announced the latest releases of its flagship WorkSmart ATM Suite of simulation, configuration and testing tools. The tools include ATMulator 2.3, ConfigBuilder 4.3 and FASTest 2.3.
According to a news release, the new releases allow customers to refresh ATM marketing messages from their PCs, simulate and test Wincor ATMs and support new ATM features, including envelope-free cash and check deposits. International customers benefit from enhanced support for foreign languages and EMV specification for chip cards. The new releases also display ATM receipt-data in multiple languages using local fonts.
"Cross-selling at the ATM and building consumer deposits are some of the ways that financial institutions can increase the profitability of their existing ATM network," said Mark Medlin, Paragon's vice president of product development. "Paragon's new releases enable our customers to cost-effectively take advantage of the latest ATM features designed to deliver these benefits and more."
Using Paragon's ConfigBuilder 4.3 to create Diebold or Wincor ProCash DDC Windows-based ATM configurations with URL calls, FIs link marketing screens with the URLs and store marketing messages on a local Web server. To refresh messages, FIs copy graphics to the Web server and let ATMs retrieve the new graphics automatically.
Paragon's new releases also allow users to configure and test envelope-free cash and check deposits on NCR, Diebold or Wincor ATMs. Paragon also supports simulation, configuration and testing on all three manufacturers' ATMs.
