BindHQ vs. EZLynx Agency Management

BindHQ is great for the insurance industry. Scenarios in which it is used in accounting:
1. Looking up policies and seeing if they have been paid.
2. Sending out statements and allowing for review of those statements in an organized function. It provides Agency Bill/Direct Bill, Receivables/Payables, Open/Closed.
3. It allows for us to post/offset and make decisions based on producer, carriers, finance companies and agents directions.
Scenarios where it is less appropriate.
1. Outside of the insurance field. But just saying that as for right now. It does not mean that this kind of platform is not usable for other industries, but it would need to be modeled to fit each industry. It has all the core structures needed to help organize and run a business.

EZLynx seems to be well suited for any size insurance agency. The capabilities seem to be endless with the only caveat being the integrated homeowner rating system. EZLynx fits all the categories that a management system should fit for any size insurance agency. About the only scenario I can think of that EZLynx would not be appropriate would be doing the financial books for an agency, but than again, what agency management does.

• The option for us to CC the BindHQ email to file our correspondence with agents, carriers etc. is my first point for convenience. It is important for us to document just about every piece of every conversation we have and that option makes it seamless to operate efficiently and diligently.
• It is easy to navigate. Simple as that. The layout is aesthetic and well spaced. The pertinent information pertaining to individual accounts is accessible and placed right across the top of the page.
• The ability to move from the current account to an expired account or the other way toward the renewal is very helpful. Often we need to access the previous years information and being able to do that just with a simple drop down at the top of the page makes it quick.

• Policy Downloads
• Policy Mangement
• Policy Documents
• Rater

• Rating option directly from account input - I would like to see this feature launched so that we could have a single entry feature that can obtain rates from multiple carriers
• Bdx Reporting - This would help with binding authority business, especially when a monthly report must be sent to a carrier partner

• Sometimes, the system times out and we have to rerun the quote.

BHQ is a user friendly, lightweight program that runs anywhere you have internet access! I use it at home, the office, or even at a nearby coffeeshop. It's hard to beat that kind of mobile work lifestyle particularly in the current world climate

Very user friendly software and they continue to improve it. We choose it as its "insurance centric" and most features are great. Training is good but some could be updated as they make changes. Would like to see some additional user options added for some tracking capabilities. But it works well for our agency

It was hit-or-miss in the past but they seem to have taken steps to improve this. As of the past 6 months, they've been pretty quick to patch bugs and fix issues when we report them

When comparing these to BindHQ, without a doubt, it is MUCH easier to navigate through AR and AP modules, applying cash, issuing checks, viewing policies, working remotely (no remote desktop), Gmail features with attaching emails to policies. But the main takeaway with what outshines than any other agency management system out there is the smooth transition from moving from AR to AP modules. You just can’t find that anywhere.

While QQ Evolution was a very good agency management platform its time was coming to an end because of the lack of portability. Which is one of the reasons why we made the switch over to EZLynx. The other issue with QQ Evolution was the massive amount of time needed to do end of the month commissions. EZLynx has solved this problem with their much simpler and easier to use commission interface.

• Positive - By streamlining our workflow processes it has allowed our production teams to focus more on production and generating more business and not on backend data entry and time wasting functions that we had with previous systems.
• Positive - Production teams are now able to work together seamlessly on a single account regardless of employee location allowing for remote working to function without any time restraints

• It makes quoting quicker.
• Managing policies is easier.
• Cancellations are easier.
