Sagitta is offered by Vertafore as their agency management system for larger insurance agencies, MGAs, bankers, and brokerages, featuring its capacity to scale and automate processes for multiple products and locations.
Agency management for larger P&C driven agencies that are looking for standardization across their business. The system really allows you to track and see when activities are being created and completed, where an account is in the marketing process (or renewal process). It also is a great data warehouse when looking to consolidate.
Sagitta is a mostly simple, get the job done, type of client management tool. It is best suited for insurance agencies with a big book of clients and also use ImageRight, the sister program to Sagitta. It is not appropriate if you also need a sales type tool for producers. This is definitely a back of house type of program.
Simplicity. This software isn't the flashiest but it does store a ton of information and keeps it all in one place.
Works well with a file storage system called ImageRight. That way you can jump over to the policy you're referencing with ease.
Breadth of information. We have been able to add several tabs that make sagitta able to handle not only policy info, but claims, contacts, accounting, billing ,etc.
Ability to handle info that doesn't fit existing fields exactly.
Inability to save unless specific fields are input. Sometimes, information just isn't readily available and Sagitta will not let you save unless you have put something into certain fields.
It is very user friendly. You can go from beginner to efficient user in a short period of time. I like the option of a desktop application as well as the web app
I have not necessarily used support from Applied Epic directly, but have gone to my trainer who has gone to support. I am usually able to get an answer relatively quickly, so I can assume the support team is very knowledgeable and prompt with their help.
We upgraded from [Applied] Tam to [Applied] Epic as we were needing new servers. The cost was a huge factor and the fact that Applieds data is backed up by them and updates are done by them, it was a huge cost and time saver for us.
I have very limited use of Epic but I did find it to be much more user friendly. I did not make the choice for Sagitta, that was done well above my role. People who I have met that have used both seem to prefer Applied Epic. I like and am comfortable with Sagitta and would not stop someone from using it.
