Appian for Insurance Agent Portal
Overview
With digitalisation the need for agents, intermediaries or brokers is not disappearing. The customer is still in need to have a local specialist to explain often complicated risks, policies and claims.

This includes capabilities that speed straight-through-processing and the ability to prioritize work via a centralized queue, increasing quote capacity, better managing customer requests, improve the claims experience, eliminating duplicate work and avoiding unnecessary data entry.
