Insurity Unveils New Forms Authoring Tool [Professional Services Close – Up]

At the IASA Annual Conference, Insurity, Inc., a provider of core insurance processing software and services, launched its new standards-based Forms Authoring Tool to expand the capabilities and benefits of Insurity's App Factory Configurator.

According to the company, the Forms Authoring Tool is delivered in the Cloud and is immediately available for new Insurity proprietary lines implementations. The Forms Authoring Tool is already being used in a pilot environment at Insurity's client, SPARTA Insurance Company. The new tool will be made available this year for all Insurity Policy Decisions clients.

The Forms Authoring Tool is one in a series of tools to be offered by Insurity that are designed to provide even more capability, flexibility, and customer control for insurers using Insurity's Insurance Decisions Suite. With 51 insurers currently in production with Policy Decisions, the addition of the Forms Authoring Tool gives Policy Decisions users additional forms capabilities as well as the opportunity to self-manage their forms environment. Based on Microsoft Word, insurers can quickly become proficient with the Forms Authoring Tool without the need for extensive training or support.

Commenting on the Forms Authoring Tool, Enrico Ferrante, SPARTA Insurance Company's Senior Vice President of Operations, noted, "While we are still fairly early in our use of the Forms Authoring Tool, we have been impressed with the forms creation and management capabilities, and especially the tool's ease-of-use. Like many insurers, SPARTA Insurance Company is looking to technology to continue to enhance our operation and make us more efficient as well as self-sufficient. We are especially pleased when a vendor partner like Insurity recognizes the value of putting the control in our hands to enable us to manage our own environment. We have been an Insurity client for a long time and appreciate the investment Insurity continues to make to add value to existing products to allow us to enjoy a greater return on our Insurity investments."

In a release, the company noted that highlights of the Forms Authoring Tool include:

-Delivers the power and flexibility of forms creation and maintenance to Insurity Policy Decisions customers;

-Offers the ability to test fill-in of forms immediately after creation;

-Ensures a seamless delivery within the Insurity application update service based on client defined schedules;

-Supports integration with both Insurity and client developed content without requiring manual synchronization; and

-Supports advanced printing options including bar coding, color, image overlays, multiple trays, watermarks, and PDF document delivery.

Jeffrey Glazer, Insurity CEO, added, "We have enjoyed a long and mutually beneficial relationship with our insurer clients, and we believe they remain loyal to Insurity in large part because we are committed to their ongoing success. By employing innovative new strategies and continuing to enhance our existing and proven product family, we are able to offer more value-add like the new Forms Authoring Tool. Stay tuned as we continue to roll out additional tools to build on our already strong core solutions."
