Based Santa Barbara, California, ClarionDoor is a Provider of Ultramodern Insurance Product Distribution Solutions
Santa Barbara, California — October 11, 2022 — ClarionDoor, a Zywave company, and provider of ultramodern insurance product distribution solutions, is pleased to announce the Boston-based, wholesale brokerage, managing general agency (MGA), and program manager, One80 Intermediaries (One80) and their contract binding division at Access One80, is now live on ClarionDoor’s comparative rating and quoting solution.
Underwriters can find the quoting process on MGA platforms to be cumbersome as they are often required to manually enter data on multiple platforms leaving room for human error. To improve operational efficiency, speed, and give underwriters an effective way of comparing carrier pricing, a single platform with a direct connection to a carrier network can reduce data entry requirements and provide indication comparisons in real-time.
“Quoting speed, efficiency, and precision is critical to our operations,” said Martin Burlingame, National Contract Binding Practice Leaders at Access One80. “To better serve our customers, we needed a solution to streamline the quoting process with our carrier partners. ClarionDoor’s comparative rating and quoting solution allows brokers to evaluate indications from multiple carriers in real-time, mitigating the need for repetitive data entry, and manual comparisons. The ability to integrate Clarion Door into our Access One80 portal was a win-win solution for Access One80.”
ClarionDoor’s comparative rating and quoting solution revolutionizes MGA services with speed, efficiency, and transparency. Established with the fastest growing excess and surplus (E&S) lines carrier network, ClarionDoor’s solution helps MGAs and carriers to expand distribution channels and create business opportunities.
“MGAs and specialty lines represent a critical arm of today’s digital insurance industry,” said Patrick McCall, vice president of sales at ClarionDoor. “As a sales extension platform for carriers, it is critical that brokerages have the proper tools to market and sell their products. What we have done with our comparative rating and quoting solution mitigates the frustration that both brokers and carriers have faced, enabling both to focus on marketing, distributing, and sales. We are thrilled to have One80 join the ClarionDoor experience, leveraging of our modern technology.”
