Why You Should Choose a Tech Partner That Always Betters Its Offerings

Snapshot of FLEX in 2023

As an evolving credit union software development supplier, FLEX expanded its offerings and improved its existing features during 2023. Our database programming teams improved over 113,000 lines of code and added an additional 208,000 lines of code to improve system functionality, data views, and reporting options. The FLEX micro-services programming teams added more than 1,000,000 lines of code that touched both the core system framework and the FLEXBridge API environment. But keeping programming code relevant and fresh is only one measurement of success. As Steve Jobs once said, "Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works." The FLEX programming teams have taken care to ensure that user experience (UX) and member experience (MX) are the priorities in their new code designs.
