Equifax
Equifax Credit Risk is great for getting consumer credit reports online, pre-filled business reports online, and sometimes searching for corporate reports online. Equifax Credit Risk is not suitable for cases where the customer provides the credit application requesting to update banking and business reference information.

Onfido
Onfido is well suited for integrations within a mobile app for automated document processing and validation e.g. driver's licenses, passports etc. Onfido is less well suited for web applications since the quality and accuracy of the checks is very dependent on the quality of the image captured which in general is less high quality from a webcam.

  • Dashboard - current analytics are very high level pass, consider, fail - would like a more detailed breakdown of reasons why consider / fail aggregated in an easy to view format.
  • Speed consistency - sometimes Onfido checks are very fast, sometimes it takes a lot longer
  • OCR - we had issues with OCR data quality and had to add a step for users to verify information captured via OCR from Driver's Licenses.

Equifax Credit Risk has a quick platform that is constantly evolving with the objective of benefiting the direct client, reducing response time to the end client. I like that its platform is easy to use and very intuitive. It is very secure because it uses different confirmation methods to log in with your users each time they need to log in.

Onfido
Ultimately went with Onfido due to previous experience with applications & products that had worked with Onfido and from research Onfido appeared to be one of the main providers in the space providing reassurance internally on use of relatively new technology. Onfido security and compliance was also standout helping pass internal audits by cybersecurity and legal. Downside with Onfido is that the pricing model is complex and relies on accurate predictions of platform/user growth to secure the best price-per-check which is challenging in a startup environment.
