February 15, 2010 17:30: jots | Kuwait > "banking product phoenix in middle east" > core banking A to Z > ITS | Is it time for the Oracle logo to replace the i-flex solutions vendor logo with the text "Oracle Financial Services Software" tacked on? That's what the vendor suggested when the Oracle takeover first happened (put both brands in the vendor title graphic). So we made a temporary graphic. We sense the old i-flex staff and clients like to see the i-flex brand linger, and when we ask Oracle corporate, we get no answer. Many inquiries still come in for i-Flex or iFlex core banking rather than for Oracle Flexcube, so we will always maintain the cross reference.
