For many organisations, modest usage levels coupled with high network charges limit SWIFTNet connectivity options. If you need the security and resilience of a high performance connection but have difficulty justifying the expense, Synergy’s SNL Hosting Services provide an excellent solution.
SWIFTNet Connectivity Options (SNL Hosting)
The basis for Synergy’s SNL Hosting Services is our SWIFT Alliance Gateway (SAG), which simplifies SNL connectivity for SWIFT’s Alliance Access and Entry interfaces. This eliminates localised VPN boxes, whether attached to dial-up or lease lines provided by Network Partners.
Synergy’s SNL Hosting Service is offered via a DUAL-P connection at Synergy’s bureau. The SAG connection allows Alliance users to participate in the subscription to additional SWIFTNet services, i.e. Cash Management Reporting, when business requirements apply.
Customers migrating from an in-house connection benefit from cost and complexity reductions accompanied by improvements in resilience.
Synergy's SNL Hosting Service is classified as non-material outsourcing, i.e. Synergy do not hold or persist any data relating to clients. The service is for communications only and it is not possible for Synergy to view client data. As such, migration to Synergy's SNL Hosting Service should have no regulatory or compliance implications.
Customers wanting to upgrade from a dial-up connection to lease line access can subscribe to Synergy’s SNL Hosting Services at modest cost (usually equivalent to the cost of your existing connection), without having to incur the large increase in costs associated with a DUAL-I connection.
