Adenza is a very user friendly tool that is so easy to use and navigate its features freely. I like its seamless integration with third party software to enhance its efficiency. I like the supportive customer service.

It much cost effective and price friendly.it implementation process is much simple and no technical knowledge or expertisee needed.

Calypso has wide range of functionalities and options for users to choose their desired models in the system. I was impressed by the flexibility Calypso offered in terms of the market risk module for computation of VaR, bootstrapping of interest rate curves, valuation models for vanilla and complex products as well as credit models used for CDS products. It also has functionalities around extracting large set of datas into excel for review and validation.

An area of work would be to provide the clients with appropriate model documentation for all the models chosen by the clients for their usage. The platform can also be a bit visually appealing and user friendly around accessibility based on business functions.

There was only one option in the previous point to choose. I validated the Calypso platform's market risk module. It performed at par with the market standards set around market risk models.

From my experience best features of Calypso platform are:

-high performance

-flexibility (could be quite easily adjusted to the needs of the organisation)

-ability to offer automatic solutions for complex manual operations

-support from the vendors if necessary

The main downside during my work was that system got overloaded once in a while which resulted into significant delays in the workflows.

However, in most of the cases, Calypso platform was working fine after the restart. The only issue here was waiting till the queue of uprocessed operations gets processed (could take up to an hour).

Another drawdown in my region is that there is a lack of experienced Calypso programmers.

I am not sure about the costs, since I was just the end-uder of Calypso platform. But as an end-user, I could recommend using Calypso Platfrom, as it is very adjustable and reliable

Calypso Platform was used for the Back Office purposes (such as trade matching and settlement) and for Collateral management.

The main benefit that I realized was the flexibility of the platform: me as a user could draw up any technical requirements for automatization of manual processes and in-house Calypso programmers quite easily implemented them into production environment.

Comparing Calypso to other systems, I should note, that it is a very cleaver system that could propose different solutions for any kind of processes.

I know for sure that some banks are using it as a front-office system for trading.
