What Our Clients Say...

Paragon software allows us to do quicker and more accurate testing.  We can set up as many test scripts as we want and use them multiple times as needed.  We can also easily make updates to our ATM screens and test the entire transaction flow prior to uploading the configuration files to the ATM.

We can review the ATM configuration flow and exclude all unnecessary states and screens so we don’t load them, which has saved us time and money.  We can also quickly test how numerous response codes are seen on the ATM screen.

Paragon’s ATMulator helped us quickly develop and implement a new enhanced ATM configuration, and FASTress provided the opportunity for us to determine, prior to production deployment, if our transaction authorization host could meet our processing needs.

Instead of conducting all of our testing directly with member organizations, we use Paragon to simulate and test these interfaces which has significantly reduced our testing time.  The QA team uses Paragon software to execute their test plans and the developers are starting to use the products for their technical tests.
