Say Goodbye to “Vendor Roulette” in Selecting Insurance Software!
Peter Kraynak, Managing Director, Info724 Ltd.
Do you know someone who has been gambling with vendor selection? I'm sure you do! This presentation will provide a best-practice approach for selecting the right insurance software package at the right price. It will also consider integration issues, and will include a framework for negotiations to help achieve a win-win situation for all parties involved. This session will be a how-to guide for insurance carriers who want to make a good choice with the best ROI possible. It's time to stop playing "Vendor Roulette" and remove the guesswork from making this critical decision.
