Overall Satisfaction with Encompass from ICE Mortgage Technology (formerly Ellie Mae)

I use Encompass to originate residential mortgages. I come from a technical background, so I understand the product as a software solution as well as a tool for loan originators. Programmatically, this is the most accomplished product I have encountered so far, after using Calix Point and PC Lender. It follows standard windows programming language for the user interface much better than the other two products mentioned, and is enhancing advanced features and integration all the time.
  • Document management
  • Integration with web and mobile app
  • Integration with 3rd party service providers such as credit reporting, pricing engine, CRM
  • Ability to have multiple loans open at the same time
  • Multiple screens open at the same time
  • Loan scenario comparison & borrower options presentation
  • Low ability to check options without saving, as the file is being worked on
  • Loan application
  • Loan origination
  • loan processing
  • document collection and management
  • automated underwriting
  • Spending less time on data entry
  • Ability to generate needed documents without effort
  • Point and PC Lender
Encompass is the superior solution.
