Data Center (DCI), a privately-owned developer of iCore360 core banking software and related technologies, ranked as one of the top 100 technology providers to financial institutions in the 15th annual IDC FinTech Rankings of leading hardware, software and service providers to the financial services industry.

“For us, this annual recognition reinforces the high value community bankers place on what we offer beyond award-winning technology,” said John H. Jones, DCI president and CEO. “The personal relationships we build and the stability of our private ownership is what really makes us successful because that’s what earns us the trust and loyalty of the bankers we serve, and that’s what’s most valuable to us as their core partner.”

DCI is unique among most core technology companies included in the rankings and in the industry overall, as it has stayed privately-owned by a group of clients for over 55 years, with several clients serving as board members and user group leaders involved in the development of the company’s technologies. As a result, the company has a reputation for highly personal customer service, evidenced by consistently high satisfaction and contract renewal rates.

DCI has repeatedly appeared in the annual IDC FinTech Top 100 Rankings. It has previously been named a FinTech Forward Top 100 Technology Provider and awarded the BankNews Innovative Solutions Award multiple times. It is currently the exclusive core processing provider endorsed by the California Bankers Association/Western Bankers Association.
