Research and advisory firm Celent analyzed 10 illustration systems and determined awards based on the Celent ABCD Vendor View, a resource for identifying premier technology solutions serving the insurance and financial industries. “The effect of the pandemic has resulted in insurers looking to accelerate full automation of their sales tools due to the new virtual work force and customer base. Celent expects the need for acceleration will move many digital sales–oriented investments to the top of a life insurer’s investment list for 2021. When considering this new highly virtualized world, investments in sales technology such as illustrations need to be smart, with a goal of maximizing virtualization, agent/customer experience and value,” said Keith Raymond.
