CU*Answers converts Columbus United FCU to its CU*BASE system

CU*Answers is pleased to announce the core data conversion of Columbus United Federal Credit Union. Columbus United FCU has 9,700 members and is $79 million in assets. The credit union converted to the CU*Answers CU*BASE system on September 1st, 2021. While this is CU*Answers’ first credit union partner in Nebraska they have credit unions in 42 other states and there are over 347 credit unions using the CU*BASE system throughout the U.S.

Per Brian Christensen (CEO at Columbus United FCU) “Columbus United is excited for the future having picked who we think is the best core processor for value, functionality, and support. Having employed an outside consultant in our search for a new core processor, Columbus United vetted three providers including CU*Answers who made the cut from the start. After on-site visits and follow up calls thereafter, it was apparent that CU*Answers’ product matched our needs and would be supported by a culture of customer/member service that we were seeking. The transparency of their operations, the robust functionality, the built in reporting capabilities and extensive training resources were all things that helped make Columbus United’s decision easier, not to mention the affordability which provided the right fit for us. All around, we have great expectations knowing that we could not have chosen a better partner for the future of the credit union, and we look forward to working with their great staff.”

Scott Collins, EVP of Sales and Marketing at CU*Answers said, “We’re incredibly excited to have Columbus United Federal Credit Union join our network of credit unions.” As a cooperative, we understand that what has fostered our CUSO’s growth has not just been the products and services we’ve offered over the years, but the participation and engagement of our customers and owners. We thrive together, and as our firm celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2020, we’re confident it’s precisely through that cooperation and shared vision that we’ll continue for 50 more years.”
