Guidewire ranked No. 1 in five 2013 VIP categories: Insurance Core Solutions, Customer Experience Solutions, Decision Support Solutions, Back Office and Support Systems, and Strategic Partners.

“What makes Guidewire effective is that they are very partner friendly,” says Chuck Johnston, Celent director. “They’ve also built out a solid organization and extended it in reasonable ways. They’ve made significant investments, they’ve got great people from the industry, and they’re executing very well.”

The company builds systems that support insurers’ mission-critical operations and are based on code quality, ease of integration, flexibility, scalability, upgradeability, and maintainability. The company’s core system suite spans the entire property/

casualty insurance lifecycle — underwriting, policy administration, billing, claims, and reinsurance management.

Guidewire solutions give insurers the capability to deliver excellent service, increase market share and lower operating costs. The Guidewire InsuranceSuite consists of: Guidewire PolicyCenter, an underwriting and policy administration system that manages the entire policy lifecycle, including quoting, new applications, issuance, endorsements, cancellations, reinstatements, renewals, and audits; Guidewire ClaimCenter, a claims system that manages the entire claims lifecycle from first notice of loss through settlement, litigation, and recovery; and Guidewire BillingCenter, a billing system that manages the entire invoicing and payment lifecycle. n
