Customisation

In-built customisation capabilities

Because every organisation within the financial industry has specific needs, customisation is incredibly important. This is why Sophis applications were built with customisation capabilities as a core feature from the very beginning.

Sophis Toolkit provides users with the opportunity to extend the core capabilities of Sophis applications to fit their specific business requirements.

Sophis Toolkit is a development tool that enables the seamless integration and customisation of the system via a powerful and complete set of documented APIs. It provides an unlimited development framework enabling users to overload, amend or create entirely new classes within the application, with backward compatibility.

This Toolkit can be used by the client's own development team as well as by Sophis' financial integration engineers. A set of wizards and an online forum helps the developer community work faster with the Toolkit.
