Having
Your Agency Management System Hosted On the
Internet Or Installed On Your Network ...
This has become a
very controversial topic. However, being
focused on your needs and developing systems
that will easily run in both environments, we don't
care which way you want to run your agency management
system. What we do care about is
that you're making the choice based upon
facts and what's in your agencies best
interest.
If you're wondering
which makes the most since for you agency or
you're being pushed by a vendor toward
one, you definitely want to hear what they
have to say!! To help you
determine which is best for your individual agency
there's a really good website available that
addresses this very topic at
www.HostedAgencyManagementSystems.com.
In
addition, our well trained Account Managers can
help you determine which is best for your
agency. And because we really don't care
which you choose we will be unbiased in our
discussions with you on this topic.

The Real
Time Push ... Getting Information About Your
Clients and Their Policies Real Time At Your
Fingertips, And More!
To not confuse
you, let me first point out that "Real Time" isn't
a specific product. It's an outcome and a
result that
uses many products and technologies to
accomplish its specific objective. Here's
the result we're all after with Real Time and
why there's such a huge push for it ...
Real Time, in a nutshell, is (from their
website) “...the ability to click on a button
from a client file in your agency management
system or comparative rater for immediate access
to carrier information on that client. The
transaction may be a quote, billing inquiry,
claim inquiry/loss runs, policy view,
endorsements or a request for information. This
approach provides a single workflow for
servicing or quoting.”
The Real Time concept is, in my opinion, the new
solution to SEMCI (single entry multi company
interface), but at a much deeper level with far
more promise and more advantages than what I've
seen in the past years or with SEMCI, but that's
because I know what we're going to be offering
to achieve this.
We fully support
Real Time (www.GetRealTime.org). Remember, our #1 priority
is helping you to massively increase the
productivity in your agency! This is
another strategy to help accomplish that.
More information will be coming of exactly how
we support Real Time.
