Integration Without the Integration Project
Glances is a smarter, more flexible alternative to traditional integration
One of the most common questions we hear is, “Does Glances sync data between platforms?” The answer is no, and that’s by design. As a display layer rather than a data-movement layer, Glances eliminates your biggest integration risks.
A single traditional integration between two banking platforms runs $50,000 to $100,000 and takes 12 to 24 months, plus ongoing maintenance. Glances delivers the right data, from the system of record, exactly when and where your team needs it, with no syncing, no duplication, and no long project timeline.
- No Risk of Data Overwrites
- Simpler Setup and Maintenance
- Instant, Real-Time Data Access
- Cleaner, Audit-Ready Information
- Flexible One-to-Many Connections

What Is a Two-Way Sync?
Two-way sync integrations automatically push updates between two systems so the data stays the same in both places. This can work for some situations, but it comes with significant drawbacks, especially in regulated environments like banking.
Key challenges with two-way syncs:
- Complex setup and constant maintenance
- Risk of data overwriting or corruption
- Slower performance due to background syncing queues
- Growing IT burden as systems expand
The Glances Difference
Glances takes a modern, no-code approach. Instead of syncing or copying data between systems, it provides your team real-time, read-only access to authoritative data, straight from the system of record.
Why Banks Choose Glances over Traditional Integration.:
- No syncing. No duplication. Glances never stores or copies your data. It shows live data directly from the system of record.
- Unified view across all platforms. Access LOS, Core, YouConnect, CRM, and other SaaS tools from a single pane of glass.
- Act without switching apps. Order appraisals, send emails, and upload documents without leaving the app you're in.
- Nothing to maintain. As a display layer, Glances is less fragile to system updates on either side than a traditional two-way sync.
- Move data only when needed. When specific data needs to transfer, Glances handles it securely.
Real-Time Data Without the Integration Headaches
| Feature | Glances | Traditional Two-Way Sync |
|---|---|---|
| Data sync between systems | View-only access to live data | Yes, bi-directional |
| Setup complexity | Low, no-code | High |
| Ongoing maintenance | None | Required, contracted |
| Risk of overwriting or data loss | Original data remains intact | Yes |
| Data stored outside source system | Never | Often |
| System performance impact | Lightweight, browser-based | Can slow source systems |
| IT resources needed | Minimal | Significant |
| Works across systems after a merger | Yes, in weeks | Requires full consolidation first |
| Cost per system connection | Flat platform fee | $50,000 to $100,000+ |
Merger-Ready From Day One
When two banks merge, the IT roadmap to consolidate cores, LOS platforms, CRMs, and adjacent systems often runs for years. Building traditional integrations between the merged environments during that period costs millions and delivers value late in the consolidation cycle.
Glances bridges both environments in weeks. A loan officer at the acquired bank sees a customer’s full relationship across both sides on day one. Credit analysts monitor exposure across two cores in a single view. Your consolidation project continues on its own timeline while the business stays productive.
- Unified customer view across both sides of the merger
- Lenders, credit, and branch staff productive immediately
- Runs in parallel with your consolidation roadmap
- No data moved or copied between merged environments
