UNITED SOUTHERN BANK PURCHASES CORPORATE INTRANET FROM CSI
PADUCAH, Ky. – (August 5, 2008) – United Southern Bank of Hopkinsville, Kentucky, recently signed a contract to purchase CSI Web@Work®, a corporate intranet developed by Computer Services, Inc. (CSI) (OTCQX: CSVI).
Established in 1888, United Southern Bank’s (USB) roots are planted firmly in Kentucky history. Over the past 120 years USB has experienced many changes, but the bank has not strayed from its promise to customers: “Whatever tomorrow brings, we’ll be there.”
To help the bank prepare for tomorrow, CSI has provided USB with integrated banking solutions since 1982. From debit card services and Internet banking to imaging and remote deposit capture, USB continues to take advantage of the innovative products and services CSI offers. And according to Donnie Overby, USB Assistant Vice President, the bank recently determined that it could enhance customer service and create efficiencies with another CSI product, CSI Web@Work®.
“Our customer base continues to grow, and we have added three branch locations in the past 10 years,” Overby said. “Our employees now serve customers at seven locations in five communities. CSI Web@Work® allows us to encourage synergy and create efficient and effective communication between employees that work a minimum of 20 miles apart.”
The bank began using CSI Web@Work® in April and has already noticed measureable productivity gains. “United Southern is one of the many CSI customers that immediately benefited from using Web@Work,” said Bill Evers, CSI Director of Business Development. “CSI Web@Work® is a unique solution that helps banks decrease paper costs, eliminate travel expenses, and facilitate the timely distribution of information to employees, departments and branches.”
CSI Web@Work® serves as a repository of information, automates timekeeping, reduces the need for emails, and provides a secure way for online project collaboration. It improves communication with dynamic messaging and bulletin board features that provide instant alerts for time sensitive or significant events, ensuring that employees, regardless of their geographic location, have access to the same information at the same time.
