Defaqto goes competely online

Defaqto, the financial research company, reports that its database products are now completely accessible online.

Following a successful migration process, those customers who previously received the Aequos database on CD, now receive either Aequos Engage, the IFA dedicated database or Aequos Online, which is more targeted at paraplanners and adviser platforms.

Product enhancements to Aequos Engage have included adding equity release and Defaqto's QuantRater, while there have been technical advances such as the ability to save session work, the integration with most of the main back-office systems and web-based quotation portals, which have helped to ensure that sales have maintained the steady upward trend achieved since launch in May 2005.

Roger Perry, Defaqto's Adviser National Account Manager, said: "Our success with Aequos Engage has been achieved by working closely with our customers to ensure the product meets their requirements".

"There is no room for complacency in this very competitive market and we will continue to improve the product features to the benefit of both IFAs and their customers." For a free two-week trial of Aequos Engage IFAs can call 0808 1000 804 or visit www.aequosengage.co.uk.
