NameScan

My initial experience with NameScan

Aspetti positivi:

Dashboard is very intuitive and easy to use.

Aspetti negativi:

I would prefer to have more flexibility with AML checking options.

Name scan review

Aspetti positivi:

Best Scanning solution with a wide range of watchlists.

Aspetti negativi:

Pricing and availability of the Team locally in order to integrate with the Software.

Good and bad but the bad outweighs the good

Commenti: Bad business model, bad attitude, bad customer service - all letting down a decent service under the hood

Aspetti positivi:

Decent and efficient system, can be used in a small company group

Aspetti negativi:

Minimum purchase of 50 credits and they make them expire after only one year. They must be making more money from non-use than from use - sharp business model

Recommended

Aspetti positivi:

User friendly The function is match with our needed

Aspetti negativi:

Launch more plan for different credit package

NameScan review

Aspetti positivi:

Aspetti negativi:

NameScan users are satisfied, no problems at all

Easy to incorporate as part of our AML

Aspetti positivi:

Easy for myself and my team to use, it is recommended by our regulator.

Aspetti negativi:

Could have more search results for UK based foreigners.

Simple review

Aspetti positivi:

easy to use, clear interface, update regulary

Aspetti negativi:

best if it can provide multi languease screening

Good, easy to use, gets it done

Commenti: Good, except for naming conventions

Aspetti positivi:

There are pros and cons to automated, comprehensive, fully-integrated systems. But for our workflow, we like that no integrations are required and we can use it as a standalone platform for running AML/PEP checks.

Aspetti negativi:

First, Middle, and Last names work well for Western names but Asian name formats are a bit different. Many East Asian names begin with the family/surname first, and then the given names after the family name. For example, "Tan Tock Seng" - in this example, the family name is Tan and the given name is Tock Seng. But in the Namescan format, it is unclear whether Tan should be input in the First or Last name section. It is also unclear whether Tock Seng should be input as the First name (based on the fact that it is a given name), or as the Middle and Last name (based on order). Many Asian names also incorporate Western names. For example: "Tan Tock Seng, Raymond Elliot". So the person would go by "Raymond Elliot Tan" if speaking with people who use Western name conventions, or "Tan Tock Seng" if speaking with people who use Asian name conventions. The "Original Script" option is not helpful in these instances because does not allow us to input the entire name (e.g. "Tan Tock Seng, Raymond Elliot") in Latin script. It only allows non-Latin script.

Detailed PEP/SIP Scanning with Easy Integration

Commenti: NameScan has allowed us to solve our AML PEP/SIP requirements in a cost effective manner with simple implementation.

Aspetti positivi:

Integration was easy with well documented API. Both 'in house' and 'commercial' databases were detailed and provided valuable insights. The team are always accessible to provide support.

Aspetti negativi:

Different databases required different API Versions. However, APIs were versioned and well documented so it was a simple change.

Making Life Much Easier

Commenti: It's ok, does the job for the purpose

Aspetti positivi:

Been using this system for while now and really love the way that we get detailed response on every search that we conduct in matter of few seconds.

Aspetti negativi:

Even with allocating the accuracy percentage it still brings back the response that has less percentage match then indicated while conducting the search.

Using the API for a year without any major issues

Aspetti positivi:

Namescan API is well documented and easy to implement. We have been making calls to the API for almost a year now and there was only one instance when the call failed.

Aspetti negativi:

There appear to be some problems with staying logged in to the dashboard on some browsers/mobile devices. Also some of the PEP information might be outdated.

Top level AML solutions tailored to specific needs

Commenti: Easy to use, cost effective, great results.

Aspetti positivi:

Provides excellent value for money, is easy to use, accessible, and can be tailored for specific needs.

Aspetti negativi:

No real cons. The platform has evolved over the last 18-24 months. With each revision there has been a minor learning curve but the evolution has been for the better.

NAMESCAN- EASY TO USE

Commenti: NO PROBLEMS, EASY TO USE AND INTEGRATE, OVERALL I AM SATISFIED

Aspetti positivi:

MY COMPANY AND DEV TEAM INTEGRATED EASILY AND QUICKLY, AND THE SERVICE SERVES US PERFECTLY AND WITH NO ERRORS OR BUGS. CLEAR DATA, AND MOST OF THE TIME THE SEARCHES RESULTS ARE THE REQUIRED ONES AND SUFFICIENT.

Aspetti negativi:

N/A.

Corporate clients due deligence

Commenti: I will highly recommend it as it gives a detailed checks on the required individuals and entities.

Aspetti positivi:

The software gives comprehensive details about the checks on individuals and entities. The software is easy to use and has all features in one place without wandering around.

Aspetti negativi:

I suppose the price is relatively high compared to other similar software available in the market.

NAMESCAN REVIEW

Commenti: It is preventing us from writing a risk for an individual or entity that my have serious liability issues.

Aspetti positivi:

I do not have any issues with the software it self

Aspetti negativi:

What I find is that if I'm doing a search for Timothy Jones, I am receiving results for TIM Jones, it needs to be filtered for my search criteria only

Excellent "Value for money"

Commenti: Very pleased, found perfect solution for our current AML/KYC needs.

Aspetti positivi:

Very user friendly, wide coverage of "black lists". PEP/sanctions/adverse media - all in one place/report.

Aspetti negativi:

Some links are outdated and relevant adverse media publications can not be found.

Perfect for our needs

Aspetti positivi:

Quick and easy to run checks against a wide range of sanctions and PEP lists

Aspetti negativi:

No drawbacks in our everyday use - simply does what we need.

Best option out there for what we need

Aspetti positivi:

The simplicity and quality of the reports! Our clients have commented how good it is to have all the scanned lists in one place.

Aspetti negativi:

When using the batch scan - you don't get copies of the reports to keep for the long term. I'm sure there is a reason for this though.

Value for money

Commenti: Very positive experience particularly in obtaining valuable and timely information on subject individuals

Aspetti positivi:

Timely and accurate information on subject persons.

The packages offered by NameScan are slightly expensive.

Need to have a function that can automatically email search result to email address (like when PEP check was free)

Namescan review

Commenti: So far we are very happy about the experience

Aspetti positivi:

It is very extremely easy to use and highly intuitive

Aspetti negativi:

It took me a while to get the info about the different scan specifics

Pretty good platform

Aspetti positivi:

Not as many bells and whistles as other platforms.
