    Chose Sagitta
    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 …

    [Applied] Epic is great for holding information but it does take time to enter data correctly if you want to be able to complete reports accurately[.]

    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.

    Pros
    Applied Systems
    • Account Management - I like the way the system organizes the data for each account. It is easy to search and find any client we are looking for and then once within that record, it is easy to navigate to the necessary policy or screen.
    • Task Management - once everyone was trained and on the same page, the ability to move tasks within the system from one person to the next really helps with the "passing the baton" from one team member to another. The task will come right up on the initial screen so the user knows they have something new to do.
    • Reporting - the system drives the majority of the reporting we do as an agency and it is great when working within the system.

    • 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.

    Cons
    Applied Systems
    • Some of the questions in the applications are repetitive.
    • The manual is not especially user-friendly - our agency is working on a new one for easier navigation.
    • Better integration with our other software programs would be beneficial to our agency.

    • Visuals. It is not a visually appealing software.
    • 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.

    Usability
    Applied Systems
    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

    Support Rating
    Applied Systems
    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.

    Alternatives Considered
    Applied Systems
    I think it's much easier to use applied epic then TAM. More user-friendly and more intuitive. I feel Applied Epic is a much more productive solution.

    Return on Investment
    Applied Systems
    • Consolidated from multiple systems to one for P&C - reduced spend on maintenance of those systems and centralized our support making life easier for IT.
    • Positive impact on the time spent actually putting information into the system. Previously TAM was used and that system was hard to navigate and use.
