JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Aug. 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ — Black Knight Financial Services (NYSE: BKFS) announced that Georgia MLS(GAMLS) has launched the Paragon MLS system after a smooth and successful conversion process. GAMLS extended its long-term partnership with Black Knight by signing a multi-year agreement to use Paragon, Black Knight’s comprehensive, leading-edge MLS system that offers intuitive and straightforward navigation, cross-browser compatibility, multi-tasking capabilities and access from mobile devices. GAMLS is one of the largest multiple listing service (MLS) organization in the Southeast, with over 3,100 offices and more than 31,000 agents and appraisers.“We are committed to providing smooth implementations and exceptional customer support to our clients,” said Black Knight Data & Analytics Vice President and Real Estate Market Leader Chip McAvoy. “We develop a collaborative partnership with clients and take a considerable amount of time to understand their needs before they go live on the new MLS system. With Paragon, GAMLS members can use a solution — including our Client Connect consumer portal — that sets a new standard in MLS performance and capability.”Close attention to detail and a seamless data migration were also important factors in the smooth conversion. Black Knight carefully planned every aspect of the conversion in advance, including the data migration, and worked with the GAMLS team to help coordinate front- and back-end system transition.
“The Paragon transition for our large membership was executed seamlessly. The ease of the conversion process, the collaboration between GAMLS and Black Knight, and the team’s hard work led to an exceptional experience for us,” said Richard Boone, CEO of Georgia MLS. “It was imperative that the cutover go smoothly and that timelines were met so our members would experience no service interruptions or difficulties. We have worked closely with the Black Knight MLS division for approximately 10 years, and are looking forward to our continued business relationship.”
