Introducing the CP Manager Agency Management System

The FIRST agency management system designed by Insurance Automation Consultants and the FIRST system designed to be productivity driven!

Are You Ready To Get Your Time Back?

CP Manager Is 25 Years In The Making. Designed For Maximum Productivity!

  • First System Designed by Insurance Automation Consultants... We intimately understand agency automation and what it needs to do to increase your productivity.
  • Easiest System To Learn & Use... Really, it is!
  • Many Exclusive Features... Most are focused around increased productivity
  • We're a Forward Thinking Company... You're going to love what we have planned for the rest of the year and the next two years
  • Amazingly Fast Online... I was blown away with the speed
  • Re-Engineered Client & Policy Management... This needed to happen. Servicing your clients just got a whole lot easier
  • Many Core Features Like Notes & Follow-Ups Re-Engineered & More Thoroughly Integrated... They needed an overhaul & brought to the 21st century
  • Multiple Agency Management... Perfect for agencies with multiple locations and clusters. What we did here is quite impressive.

A Sample Of Increased Productivity: Our Notes Are Powerful & Fast To Create

Adding a note is quick and easy because there are lookup tables that speed up data-entry.

I love lookup tables because they speed up data-entry and maintain consistency with the fields.

In addition, at the Carrier Record and Client Record you can even enter who you talked to. Client notes auto-populated with the "Primary" contact. Then when you pull up their contact record you will see the notes (and correspondence) tied to their record! Talk about making it so much easier to work with contacts of an Insured and Carrier.

Finally, you can even attach a note to a policy and even to a specific section of the policy. If you added the note from the policy, the policy is automatically tied to the note. When you view notes from the policy you only see the notes tied to that policy. Here's a note being added at the client record...

More Powerful Features In CP Manager

Downloading

  • CP Manager offers both PL and CL downloading.
  • We're certified with both IVANS and Team-Up.
  • Uniquely we support both AL3 standards which carriers love.

Powerful Multiple Agency Management

  • Can have unlimited sub-agencies (as we call them) in CP Manager
  • You assign Staff to the agencies. If they aren't assigned to an agency they won't even know this agency is in the system.
  • Downloading can be agency specific and/or can benefit many agencies. As an example, take an aggregator using the system who has sub-agencies for agencies working with him with some agencies having a direct contracts with carriers and get downloading with those carriers and agencies who don't have a direct contract. We can create an IVANS "Y" account for the sub-agency to handle the downloads for the carriers they have a direct contract with. For the carriers the agency doesn't have a direct contract for the aggregator would receive the downloads which would still update the policies in their agency. Best of both worlds!
  • Reports are agency specific. Users can only see reports for agencies they have access to.
  • Accounting is agency specific. Users will only see accounting transactions for agencies they have access to. Accounting also has a lot of security behind it to determine what a user can access and do.

This just highlights some of the key features. There's many more features around multiple agency management

Re-Engineered Notes, Follow Ups, Correspondence and Attachments which we call "Service Tools".

  • We more thoroughly integrated Service Tools into CP Manager.
  • Flows with your workflows
  • Advanced features.

My Activities Dashboard

  • CP Manager goes to work right when you login
  • Each of the groups are broke down in a very logical way and based upon priorities! It makes it much easier for new CSRs to know how to stay on top of their work.
  • No more printing Renewal Reports, Past Exp Date Reports, Endorsement Reports or Cancellation Reports. Now you just click your way to handling each of these items.
  • The My Activities Page is proving to be a huge time saver!

There's a lot you can do here. This is just a couple of those things.

As you can see, it is not our desire to be just another feature driven system that doesn't do a whole lot to increase your productivity in this workflow driven industry.

It was time for the management system to be re-engineered to support today's agency and help today's agency create  the levels of productivity that is possible.

Since this system didn't exist,
WE DESIGNED IT!

There's A Lot Of Excitement About The CP Manager Management System! Here Are A Few More Things That Has Agencies Excited...

CSR's Manage Larger Book Of Business

When you have a highly productive system which allows you to get your work done a lot faster, you can manage a much larger book of business.

Our Imaging & Document Management

In this day and age of going paperless, we were meticulous in our imaging module. Attach items to a client, a policy, a section of a policy, a staff record or carrier. You'll like this feature. You can easily attach them to a letter, fax or email.

Easy, Easy, Easy To Learn & Use

Survey after survey clearly points out that "Easy To Use" is the #1 request of agencies of a management system. Easy to use was a primary objective of ours, and we nailed it!

The Direction The Company Is Going

Agency AutomationTEAM, Inc is a forward thinking company who puts our clients at our highest priority. Between our tight relationship with our clients, the voice our clients have and the future of our products, you'll also love the direction we're going.

Using The CP Manager Agency Management System Will Have Your Staff Excited About Servicing Your Clients...

  • Service Tools Are At The Client Record AND On The Policy... Notes, Follow-Ups, Correspondence and Attachments really are right at your fingertips
  • Activities (top box in white) Shows You Some Key Information About This Client... See immediately how many open endorsements and open claims for the client, and see if they owe you any money.

When accessed from a specific policy, you'll only see Service Tools for that specific policy... For example, just the notes for that policy, just the follow-ups for that policy, etc. Nice!

  • CP Manager is Single-Entry... Doing double-entry is stealing your time so we knew the importance of having a single-entry system!
  • You can open as many Client Records & Policy Windows as you need... Unlimited!
  • You can search for a client record from the 1) very advanced Find Hub,or from 2) the Client Hub main window or 3) with our Quick Search feature on a client record. Three (3) very quick ways to find a client record fast!
  • When you're on a client record and you need to pull up another client record, you can use our "Quick Search" feature... You don't need to jump back to the "Find Hub" saving you keystrokes and time.

When you click on the "Action" button for the client record you need you can choose...

View: To pull the client into the same window (if you're done with the record you're on), or

New Window: To open the client record in a new window (Double clicking the record does this too)

  • Right on the client hub right at your fingertips you’ll have Drivers, Vehicles & Locations... What a time saver!
  • Client Data Is Grouped On The Client Record... Allows for a lot more information in an organized way without cluttering the screen.

CP Manager will include the primary Hubs needed to service your clients and their policies along with handling your agency’s accounting, work with your carriers, maintain information about your staff and run the reports you need to stay on top of your agency. Listed above is the Hubs available in CP Manager.

CP Manager has been designed to handle 1 user agencies up to 1,000 users. That’s why we used SQL as our database engine (SQL is FAST) and why we put search filters in all of the Service Tools… so you can find that letter, that note, that attachment or whatever you’re looking for very quickly!

CP Manager is unlike anything you've ever experienced before. It's the kind of system you'd expect and hope to have released when it's insurance automation consultants who design the system

Take a look at many of the things you can do from a client record and how common-sense the design is (We've made some updates to this window so there's now some additional information not shown here)...

The CP Manager Agency Management System Is Loaded With Powerful Features!

It's true, CP Manager has lots of powerful features. What you may not know is the majority of features are around increased productivity, client management and policy management.

Massively Increasing Your Productivity

Yes, our primary focus in designing CP Manager has been on creating a system that would massively increase your productivity. 

Between our exclusive Workflow Task Manager and My Activities page, just these two features alone will make a huge impact in massively increasing your productivity. What's exciting, is these are just two of numerous things we've done to increase your productivity.

Being Very Easy To Use

There's a reason "easy to use" is so important to an agency and the #1 request of agencies. For starters, it means a shorter learning curve to being able to effectively use the system.

It also means CSR's being able to do their job faster because they're not looking for the tools they need or figuring out how to use a feature.

Here's a simple example. Both of these icons are to create a new record ...  or . Which is easier for a user?

Ours is the "Create New" button. We use 'Words' to avoid needing to hoover over it to figure out what it is! You'll love our attention to the details and little things.

The Learning Curve Is Dramatically Shortened With CP Manager

Absolutely it is! That's because CP Manager is more intuitive, icons have words, it offers a more common-sense layout and the time consuming job of teaching CSR's workflows so they properly process their work has all but been eliminated with our exclusive Workflow Task Manager.

When you have people who have spent the last 25 years working with agencies helping them to more effectively use their management system and who are experts in workflows, productivity strategies and agency automation designing the system, of course it's going to be an easier system to learn and use!

Find The Record You're Looking For Quickly

When a client calls in, you need to find their record fast! The problem with many systems is they only allow a few key ways to find a record. Take a commercial account, for example. Most systems will only pull the record up by the commercial name. In CP Manager you can pull up a record by... Insured Name, DBA, Company, Customer Code, any part of the address, by any of the phone #'s and email address.

On top of this, you can pull up a record by policy # (even if you only have a partial #), by the additional named insured, by the contact (first name or last name), by any of the contacts phone #'s and the contacts email address.

When it comes to finding a record, we offer over 34 ways to find a record. We've got you covered.

That's Impressive... What Else Can The CP Manager Agency Management System Do?

A LOT! The best way for you to see everything this system will do is to schedule a live demo of the system. For now, here are a few more things...

Better communication with carriers

We know how important your relationship is with carriers so we made it easier to work with them. In addition, CP Manager offers carrier downloading for both PL and CL.

Downloading with your carriers

To quickly and easily keep your policies current and up-to-date with carriers that download you'll want our download module. We download with all carriers and all LOB's they download. We're certified with both IVANS and Team-Up

Run from a PC, Tablet or Smart Phone

Right out of the gate, CP Manager can be ran on all 3 of these devices. AND, there's no additional cost for a tablet or Smart Phone.

A seamless upgrade to the TIME System

That's right, when the TIME system comes out there's no cost for a data conversion and 100% of data converts, and there's no new learning curve. It's how an upgrade to a new system should be! There's no reason to wait for the TIME System.

The CP Manager Management System Helps You Work More Closely With Staff and Carriers Too!

We know how important your relationship is with your carriers, and we know you also need to be able to stay on top of your staff. Check this out...

Notes, Follow-Ups, Correspondence & Attachments

At both the Carrier Record and the Staff Record you have the core Service Tools just like you have at the Client Record. 

Open Endorsements & Claims

At the Carrier Record you'll have the "Open" Endorsement and "Open" Claims for that carrier right at your fingertips. Discuss one of them or all of them with the carrier representative. Drill into it for the details.

Carrier Contacts & Departments

Attach Departments or Contacts to the carrier record. Tie notes and correspondence to their record. You'll love how this works and how it'll help you work more closely with carrier contacts.

Writing Codes

Manage your carrier writing codes. You can even set a default.

 Agency AutomationTEAM, Inc Is Client Driven & Focused. There's A Reason For This...

President & Founder Bradley Chesnut has spent the past 25 years working hand in hand with agencies across America helping them to more effectively use their automation and increase their productivity. Watching the decisions he's making and the programs he's putting in place at the company, it's very clear that he's a strong advocate to the agency and is genuinely concerned about your success.

What Programs Have You Added?

Tell Me More About The "Upcoming Feature Input Program"

Tell Me More About The "Feature Voting Program"

"Over the years, it's made absolutely no sense to me why vendors don't work more closely with their clients and give them a larger voice in the direction the product goes, what features are being added to it and the order in which new features get added to the system especially when you consider how important this software program is to an agency."

Bradley Chesnut, President

It's a fact that Mr. Chesnut has a very extensive background in working with agencies and has a deep respect for agencies. After all of the years he's worked so closely with agencies and his commitment to them, agencies should be very excited that it's Mr. Chesnut who's the President of Agency AutomationTEAM. We don't believe any other vendor could possibly do more for agencies or be more of an advocate for agencies than Mr. Chesnut. That's very obvious when you see the programs Mr. Chesnut is putting into place to get agencies involved in the direction of the product and company, and everything else Mr. Chesnut is doing.

Take, for example, how Mr. Chesnut has priced CP Manager... talk about an amazing price!

More about this following. Like he continuously says, "No agency left behind", and he means it!

Finally, We Priced CP Manager So It's Affordable To ALL Agencies! With CP Manager You'll Save Both Time AND Money!

CP Manager Is Affordable...

As we've shared, we know the value of this single-entry, highly-productive system and the fact that we're introducing the first workflow driven system to the industry!

However, our President, Mr. Chesnut, is adamant that every agency, regardless to size, should be able to afford a highly-productive system. That's why he has priced the system less money than 70% of the systems on the market...

Agencies will no longer need to purchase a low-end systems heavy in double-entry and with poor workflows simply because of price!

In addition to this, Mr. Chesnut doesn't feel an agency should have to pay for features they don't even use, when this is possible. A huge frustration of many agencies is paying a high price upfront and high ongoing support fees for a system they only use 15-20%.

According to the high majority of agencies Mr. Chesnut has discussed this with, they would prefer to have a lower price and lower monthly support fee and then be able to purchase the features they need for their agency. Do you also agree with this?

This is the model we've chosen for our company ... to turn features that not every agency would use into an add-on module giving them the option to purchase it if they need it or to keep their costs down if they don't need it.

An example of this is our upcoming individual life and health management system. Not every agency sells life and/or health policies so those who need it can purchase it and those that don't are able to keep their costs lower. This provides a real win-win solution for all.

The final point here is we offer two pricing models. One offers a greater short term savings over the first 2 years and the other offers a greater long term savings from the 3rd year on. You select the one that best meets the needs of your agency.

The fact that we give you the option between the two is unique in this industry. Most only offer the "short term savings" program.

Talk to your account manager to determine which is best for YOU!

As You Grow We Provide A Seamless Upgrade Path To The TIME System

Another huge concern and frustration to agencies purchasing low-end, low-priced systems is knowing that as their agency grows and they bring on more staff, their needs will increase and they'll outgrow their low end system. This is a common evolution of new agencies and small agencies.

One of their biggest concerns, and rightfully so, is converting their data to the new system.

After 25 years of working with agencies we are very clear of the growth pattern of an agency which is why we have once again done what no other vendor has ever been able to accomplish... we provide our CP Manager clients a seamless upgrade path to the TIME System! It's a truly brilliant solution. Many call it the "perfect upgrade solution".

Here's how easy it is to upgrade to the TIME System:

  • 100% of your data will convert to the TIME System... you won't lose one iota of information or data!
  • There's NO COST to converting your data to the TIME System!
  • There's no new learning curve because we maintained the carefully designed layout of CP Manager since this layout offers maximum functionality and productivity!

Plus, there's no down time when converting!

There's no better solution to moving to another system than this!

As Insurance Automation Consultants, we really do understand agencies, their needs and how they evolve over time... evidence in all of the things we're doing to protect you, provide you with the kind of solutions you need, going against the grain in this industry when it's not in the best interest of our clients and providing you with options and much more.

Seriously, isn't this the kind of company you'd want to develop a long term relationship with? I ask because we're doing everything in our ability to create a long term relationship with our clients... how are we doing at accomplishing this?
