Rick, we've had a few conversations and I respect your opinions. You're a knowledgeable and tech savvy agent. Your problem as I recall was one of a missing plan in CA rather than slowness. I realize that you are now happy with the other guys, and more power to you.
Two points I would make in response; 1) One man's "useless bells and whistles" are another man's irreplaceable sales tools. Some agents are taking full advantage of the pre-underwriting info, and some agents have adapted their sales process to build in the integrated co-browser. Both are certainly "useless" if you don't use them- but I guarantee both are extremely powerful if an agent learns how to use them and they are employed at the right time during the sales process. 2) Insurint has undergone significant hardware and server upgrades, and a move to a new facility, which has improved our performance and stability.
We ask that each agent make their own comparisons based on what is important to them, and make their own decisions based on a combination of value, pricing, commitment, features, business model, etc. Then, after choosing the tool, they make the commitment to learning the tool and making the sales process changes necessary to take best advantage of the power of the particular technology.
Thank you for your comments, Rick.
