Apex Insurance moves to Open GI from SSP

Commercial brokers, Apex Insurance, have confirmed their decision to switch technology partners and move to Open GI.
Apex Insurance, who are based in Cork in Ireland, have been with SSP for over five years. They went live on Open GI last year.
Theo Hoare at Apex Insurance explained the reason for the move:
“Apex Insurance wanted a software provider that would deliver a functionally-rich solution to improve efficiencies within our business. We also wanted to benefit from having access to a local team to help with our go-live and implementation of new business processes.
“With the software solution and team of consultants provided by Open GI, we are confident that we now have the right partners and can continue to grow our business. In addition, we feel very confident now that our new system will equip us against any potential cyber issues.
“We would strongly recommend Open GI as software partner of choice for brokers.”
Jason Wheelhouse, Sales Director at Open GI, further added:
“We are pleased to have been appointed as Apex Insurance’s preferred technology partner and look forward to supporting them during their growth and expansion phase.
“We are providing the business with our latest cloud-based technology that provides them with full trading capability for both personal and commercial lines. They [Apex] will also receive full account management support throughout the life of their contract as well as dedicated business development support. All these features are designed to help Apex Insurance utilise their Open GI system to the best of its capability and aid their business growth.
“Our business development support, which has been complimented by our other customers, is unique and is not offered by any other software house in our industry.”
