reporting can feel limited when you need something more customized. pulling specific data cuts usually requires exporting to excel and manipulating it manually which gets tedious. the interface also feels a bit dated in certain areas and some of the navigation isnt as intuitive as it could be, especially for newer staff who are still getting up to speed on the platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Yeah. There are a few areas where navigation could be simpler. Finding older applications or creating custom reports sometimes takes more time than expected. I would also like to see more flexibility when customizing dashboards without needing administrator assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some admin changes still require help from support and a few screens look a bit outdated. Its not a major issue, but MeridianLink Consumer could be more flexible and give admins a little more control so we don’t have to reach out for assistance as often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

System architecture can be somewhat rigid. You must use custom questions instead of true database fields, which limits reporting flexibility. The backend interface also feels older than what the industry standard is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

User friendly interface for both end user and staff, product line updates are efficient and in real time, integrates with most, if not all, core systems. It has the ability to make account opening very simplistic and easy to follow on both deposit and lending products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Advanced decisioning is below competitors, report customization does not have the ability to capture all fields, ratio calculations are not simplified which cause confusion in a lending department. There are no "recommended/default" settings for products based on super user or peer asset size making projects longer to launch. Some integrations (GAP, MBI,, debt protection) are not always accurate and often times classified as vendor error with no clear direction on solution.

Account opening fraud features are not advanced enough yet to raise tru red flags and not simple spelling or data input errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
