Connectivity for insurance agencies

Quotes, carrier systems and the phone, all day. The work is information, and clients trust you to keep theirs private and to answer when they call.

Internet, wireless and security for insurance agencies

Each of the three has to be right, and they are usually bought from different companies. We compare them together.

Internet

Carrier portals and agency management systems are online.

Wireless

Agents need the office line on their mobiles.

Security

Policyholder data is regulated and must be protected.

Clients call the agent's mobile, and the agency never hears about it

By the Telecom Agency advisory team

Customers save the agent's personal number and use it for everything. When the agent leaves, those customers and their conversations leave too.

What a consultant changes

An advisor gives every agent the agency's number on their own phone, so calls and texts belong to the business. Telecom Agency compares the systems that do this and helps the agency choose one that also meets its record-keeping duties.
