Simplifying Licensing Complexity With Rocket^® Terminal Emulator 

Company

Industry: Financial & Banking

SEB is a leading North European financial group. The company provides private, corporate, and institutional banking services across the globe, driven by a commitment to collaboration and innovation.

Challenge

SEB struggled with a complex IT setup, including multiple terminal emulators, expensive licenses, and custom scripts. This slowed innovation, increased costs, and hindered the bank's digital transformation goals.

Operating across multiple countries, SEB faced several significant challenges. The bank was paying for over 10,000 emulator licenses across various tools, which added considerable costs. Additionally, their complex backend systems and scripts made replacing these tools both difficult and expensive. The fragmented nature of the tools also created inefficiencies and hindered the bank's automation efforts. SEB recognized that addressing these issues was essential to achieving operational excellence and ensuring long-term success. 

Solution

Using Rocket Terminal Emulator, SEB unified its fragmented infrastructure, introduced licensing flexibility, and simplified global deployment with minimal disruption. 

Rocket Software delivered a seamless transition for SEB by implementing key changes. They replaced 10,000 seat licenses with 3,000 concurrent licenses, cutting costs significantly. Flexible desktop and web-based solutions addressed user needs, while language and character set challenges were resolved to ensure regional compatibility. Automation capabilities helped SEB modernize operations, and the simple interface of Rocket Terminal Emulator reduced training time and improved user experience. 

Results

SEB experienced improved infrastructure, significant cost savings, and enhanced user satisfaction. The partnership with Rocket Software equipped SEB to handle ongoing transformations confidently.

SEB improved operations with Rocket Terminal Emulator, streamlining processes and cutting costs through centralized licenses and Rocket’s concurrent licensing model. A redesigned interface and intuitive tools reduced training expenses and increased user satisfaction. Automation tools enabled RPA, saving time and boosting efficiency. The platform also prepares SEB for future upgrades, including enhanced APIs and system replacements.
