Talk:Linedata Services
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I removed the following text from the article in chief:
[edit] Products
Linedata Services’ range of products consists of software systems for the financial services industry. As well as offering traditional deployment options, Linedata has over 30 years proven experience in providing hosted solutions and is unique in offering all its products via an ASP (Application Solutions Provider) model.
[edit] Asset Management
Linedata's Asset Management Division (LDSAM) provides global front-to back-office solutions for buy-side institutions and third party administrators. The Division's client base includes over 800 financial institutions with 13,000 users across five continents. Products include solutions for Compliance, Fund Accounting, Hedge Funds, Order Management and Electronic Trading, Partnerships and Transfer Agencies.
[edit] Savings & Insurance / Leasing & Credit Finance
Linedata Services is a leading provider in the Savings business and in the Individual and Collective Savings area in France. Linedata Services is the preferred partner for specialised financial institutions for consumer credit, car finance, professional finance or syndicated loans with an integrated Front-to-Back offering which guarantees complete management of contracts throughout their life-cycle.
While a description of the business's products may be worth mentioning, the text needs to be reworked to read like an encyclopedia article. Referring to its services or products as "solutions" is an inherent violation of WP:NPOV, and there are many other POV flaws in this text as well: Linedata has over 30 years proven experience . . . Even worse, from an aesthetic if not a policy perspective, is the breathlessly meaningless buzzword bollocks: global front-to back-office solutions . . There is precious little information in this description of what these offerings do or are used for, and no concrete information about what this business's employees are doing when they do their jobs. This text needs a complete rewrite before it reappears in the article in chief. - Smerdis of Tlön 17:23, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
