TechCanary Announces PBL Insurance Limited has Selected the TechCanary Insurance PlatformTechCanary, a provider of a cloud-based, analytics-driven insurance solution and the #1 insurance solution inside the Salesforce CRM platform, today announced PBL Insurance Limited (PBL), one of the top independent insurance brokers in Ontario providing its clients with a wealth of expertise, guidance and dedicated personal service, has selected TechCanary's insurance platform to replace its existing legacy broker management system. With a need for increased automation and more extensive functionality, PBL looked to make a change in management systems. One option was to upgrade its legacy management system with the incumbent vendor, but the cost, time, and limited functionality prompted the broker to consider building its own system or evaluating the market for alternatives. As a result of its extensive market search, PBL opted to buy versus build, selecting TechCanary's insurance platform due to a combination of criteria, including: TechCanary's modern technology, robust functionality and automation, the ability to customize for PBL's specific needs, and the attractive cost and implementation timeline. The combination of a broker management system and the Salesforce CRM platform was also a contributing factor. Mike Robinson, president PBL Insurance, commented on the TechCanary selection saying, "We knew it was time for a change given the advancements in technology and heightened customer expectations since we had implemented our current system. As we began our search it was important that we evaluated systems from the outside looking in - that is from customer perspective. Flexibility, service capabilties, ease of use, and operational efficiencies for both internal and external processing were critical considerations in our decision. TechCanary fit all of our criteria and proved to be the best fit - not just the insurance platform built natively in Salesforce, but also given the TechCanary team and its knowledge of our business." Additional anticipated benefits from implementation of the TechCanary system include:
"The PBL Insurance decision is especially gratifying as it comes on the heels of our recent announcement of our enhanced platform designed specifically for the Canadian market," said Reid Holzworth, TechCanary CEO and founder. "We'd been offering our system in Canada for employee benefits for several years, but the enhanced system extends our functionality to support Canadian P&C entities. PBL Insurance selecting our platform is a first for us in the Canadian P&C market. And I am confident it is the first of many."
