Ally Financial headquartered in Detroit offers online banking, via full service auto finance operations, and boasts a complementary auto-focused insurance business, a growing wealth management and brokerage platform, and a trusted corporate finance business offering capital for equity sponsors and middle-market companies.
If you are looking for a high-quality online banking product and you don’t want/need to customize it too much, Alkami is a great choice- it has a lot out of the box and the people are great. If you need a lot of customization, and you don’t have the internal resources to help you do that, Alkami may be a challenge to satisfy your needs.
Ally perfectly meets our needs for OKR management. My team uses it to ensure that we are making progress on our quarterly objectives and regularly check in—at minimum, once a week but often more frequently. The only misuses at my company are due to user error, notably when people incorrectly use it for task management rather than measurable goals.
Visualizing the hierarchy and relationship between objectives and key results. The nesting and double alignment functionality are especially helpful, as they can't easily be expressed on, say, a simple worksheet or Confluence page.
Reminding the team to make regular check-ins. What gets measured gets done. This prevents the common pitfall of setting goals and not revisiting them until the end of a project (when it is too late).
Integration with external sources for automated check-ins. Why do this manually when it can happen behind the scenes?
Ally and Sigma are very different tools. However, they are both integral to my team's daily work and success. One of their common strengths is the responsiveness of their support team. I always feel that my questions are being answered in a clear and informed way. Another shared strength is the knowledge bases that these tools have built out, which is very helpful for onboarding and answering questions self-serve.
