Likelihood to Recommend We use Dimelo for managing across multiple channels for single clients, which it is really good at. We have not had as much success in identifying posts that may be more suited for escalations--so, for interrogating the content of posts for intent, sarcasm or content inspection, and to automatically assign to different departments or colleagues depending upon the rules.

Read full review Support Rating The Zywave Customer Support team is phenomenal! Never any complaints. They resolve things quickly. You can call and talk with a real person, submit a chat question, or email them. Their training videos are good—short and sweet. We still use multiple Zywave products in our Benefits, Commercial Lines, and Marketing departments. They are a great company to work with. The implementation/onboarding for all products has been amazing! Training for products has always surpassed the training we received from other vendor partners.

Read full review We moved from BrokerageBuilder (BKB) to
Epic in June 2019.
Epic pros over BKB: You can use
Epic for CL, PL, Bonds, and Benefits—one system for your whole agency has a lot of advantages. In
Epic , you can drag and drop emails and documents to clients, policies, and activities.
Epic has an auto-save feature. Reporting in
Epic is better.
Epic cons compared to BKB: The design aesthetic of
Epic is not as nice as BKB. Navigating
Epic is clunky—everything is in multiple layers.
Epic is less flexible for custom fields.
Epic is designed for CL/PL, so it's not ideal for a Benefits user, although they are improving/investing in the benefits side. BKB is just better for a Benefits user.
