Hummingbird vs. Unit21
Looking for a Hummingbird Alternative?
Unit21 and Hummingbird both offer modern case management solutions to address the scalability challenges faced by non-banking entities such as Fintechs, exchanges, regional banks, and credit unions. However, it's easier to optimize the risk and compliance stack with Unit21.
If you want a Hummingbird alternative that allows you to:
- Organize alerts and prioritize cases based on criteria such as risk level, severity, and relevance
- Go beyond alert dispositioning and take further action within the platform
- Build and configure case management workflows and checklists without the need for extensive expertise
Then you should take a look at Unit21’s infrastructure for fraud and AML teams. With Unit21, you can:
- Customize criteria for each investigation using our self-service investigation checklists and workflows for Compliance & Risk use cases
- Establish a feedback loop between case manager and transaction monitoring to better understand specific risk patterns and distinguish between genuine alerts and false positives
- Lower professional service costs and empower your team to configure roles, templates, workflows, and more without relying on engineering resources or professional services

Unit21’s Superpowers
Take Advantage of All Your Data
Unlike Hummingbird’s case management solution, which only allows you to ingest alerts, Unit21’s platform enables you to ingest and utilize all your data, including any custom data or data from third-party providers. By eliminating professional services fees, Unit21 empowers organizations to take control of their implementation process.
Get Additional Insights Into Suspicious Activity
Humminbird offers a standalone case management solution, whereas Unit21 provides an integrated solution that enables a seamless flow of information between the two functions. The integration gives users a holistic view of each case by providing access to both the transaction data and associated case details in one place.
Drag and Drop Interface
Hummingbird only provides standard configurations, but Unit21 goes a step further by providing flexibility and control over the customization of workflows. Our drag-and-drop interface makes it easy for users to design and modify workflows visually.
Why Choose Unit21 Over Hummingbird for Case Management?
The choice between Unit21 and Hummingbird depends on the specific needs and preferences of Fintechs and financial institutions.
However, Unit21’s integrated approach, customization options, data ingestion capabilities, cost-effectiveness, and self-service capabilities make it a strong contender for organizations seeking a comprehensive and adaptable compliance & risk management solution.
