A fast-growing fintech that provides marketing automation software (martech) and services to wealth management firms approached us looking for market research to help drive their product
roadmap.

After brainstorming with their senior management team, we proposed a project to perform a competitive analysis.

Competition had been increasing in the martech space before the pandemic, but absolutely exploded post-pandemic as advisors were unable to meet with clients or prospects face-to-face.

New vendors flooded the market with innovative products and our client need direction and a better understanding of how table stakes had changed.

Ezra Group Gets Results

Technology decisions that drive enterprise value.

Ezra Group supports RIAs, broker-dealers, and WealthTech vendors on their tech stacks, platforms, and integrations that work in practice—not just on paper.

What We Are

Operator-led expertise for wealth management and WealthTech

Ezra Group focuses exclusively on the wealth management and WealthTech ecosystems including every step of the advisor lifecycle: from onboarding, CRM, portfolio management, trading, reporting, planning, data, billing and compliance.

Your project will be led by operators who have carried responsibility for these systems inside RIAs, broker-dealers, custodians, and technology vendors. Clients work with the same senior practitioners from scoping through implementation and adoption. No rotating in junior people. No handoffs to someone you’ve never met.

Same team throughout

Vendor-neutral

Who We Serve

Who we work with

Ezra Group supports two groups in the wealth ecosystem.

RIAs and broker-dealers

We help multi-advisor RIAs, hybrids, and broker-dealers understand where their current tech stack helps and where it creates drag. Our work includes full tech stack  evaluation, CRM and portfolio management platform migrations, integration redesign, and vendor consolidation—led by operators who have run these programs before.

WealthTech vendors

We help WealthTech vendors sharpen competitive positioning, prioritize integrations, and build messaging grounded in how buyers actually evaluate platforms. Engagements are led by practitioners who have been on both sides of those conversations.

Three ways we help

How we help

Most engagements start with one of these three needs. Some require all of them in sequence.

Strategy & Assessment

When you know something's wrong but not what to fix first. Understand where your tech stack creates drag, what sequence of changes makes sense, and which vendor promises hold up under scrutiny. Leave with a roadmap that accounts for contracts, internal capacity, and downstream impact on advisors, operations, and compliance.

Implementation & Optimization

When decisions need to become production systems. CRM migrations, portfolio conversions, integration builds, vendor consolidation. This is the work that derails firms when it goes wrong. We make sure it doesn't by protecting data integrity, preserving workflows, coordinating vendors, and holding realistic timelines.

Business Readiness & Training

When technology rollouts meet human resistance. Advisors will ignore new software  if they think that it’s disrupting their workflow. We build rollout plans, communication strategies, and training around how people actually work—with adoption metrics that show leadership what's landing and what isn't.

The Ezra Group WealthTech Integration Score

Integration research that supports better decisions

Integration breadth and depth has become a critical factor when evaluating any new software. Ezra Group maintains the WealthTech Integration Score, the only independent assessment of how applications connect across the advisory ecosystem. For wealth management firms, it adds a level of clarity during platform selection. For vendors, it highlights where integration development  and messaging can sharpen competitive position.

Total number of integrations: 601

Median integration score: 4.55

Total number of applications scored: 2752

I recommend them to anyone looking for real wealth management industry expertise.

WealthTech Today

Staying close to the wealthtech conversation

Ezra Group publishes WealthTech Today, covering advisor technology, industry trends, and vendor news. The blog and podcast reflects our ongoing work with wealth management firms and WealthTech providers.

Before you make your next platform decision

Technology decisions create downstream consequences: operational, contractual, and financial.

If you’re evaluating a new vendor, planning a migration, or trying to consolidate a fragmented tech stack, we recommend starting with a structured review.

We’ll pressure-test your assumptions, surface risk, and clarify sequencing.

Not every situation requires outside advisors.

If yours doesn’t, we’ll say so.

But when you need expert advice, Ezra Group is the technology partner you want by your side.

Bad technology decisions in wealth management can compound quickly. A misaligned platform, a rushed migration, or an integration that breaks under real volume can constrain your firm for years.

Ezra Group will make sure you avoid these mistakes since your engagement will be run by operators who have owned platforms, led migrations, and carried responsibility for advisor technology inside real organizations. We don’t sell software. We help you get it right.

Warning!

You are changing the category of the product application.

Changing an applications category can recalculate scores for all products of the “new category” and “old category” if the product becomes the highest number of integrations with key apps and non-key apps. Please proceed with caution in making changes to the application category. The updated calculations take effect after you submit changes of the form.
