Regions Bank (NYSE:RF) was recently honored by Gomez, the Web
performance division of Compuware Corporation, as providing the top
web site performance in online banking – www.regions.com – and as a
Gold Web Performance Award winner for 2009.
The “Best of the Web: Gomez 2009 Web Performance Awards” report
showcases the leaders in web site performance across six industries
– retail, finance, travel, media, healthcare, and government –
based on Gomez’s Web and Mobile Performance benchmark analysis of
over 2,000 brands in 2009. This year marks the first time Gomez has
presented an all-encompassing web performance award.
Regions earned Gomez’s top honor for its web site’s response
time, availability and consistency. In fact, regions.com
outperformed the web sites of the top 25 banks in America, with the
best average response time, availability and consistency throughout
2009, as measured by Gomez’s banking benchmarks.
Regions has been a top performer in the past year on Gomez’s
benchmarks. Last year, Regions Online Banking tied for first place
for average success rate in completing online transactions among
U.S. banks, and ranked second for average response time.
“We are very proud that Gomez has acknowledged Regions with this
inaugural award,” said Tom Twitty, executive vice president and
head of Regions Alternative Channels. “This ranking recognizes the
tremendous amount of teamwork of a diverse and talented group of
associates in making Regions Online Banking the best in response
time, availability and consistency.”
“Delivering great web performance is truly a competitive
differentiator,” said Jaime Ellertson, President, Gomez division.
“Regions’ commendable web site performance throughout 2009 is proof
that it puts its customers’ online experiences front and center,
earning it the honor of a Gold Gomez Web Performance Award and
setting the web performance benchmark for its industry.”
