    Ventiv Claims works beautifully for workers' compensation. It is easy to use for both field employees and Risk Management. The claim nearly creates itself by allowing the digital "Injury Reporting Form" the employee fills out when they report an injury to populate the claim itself. I have the employee's own description of the incident, which helps determine compensability. In addition, the support we receive from the Ventiv Claims team is second to none. We have a dedicated account manager who ensures our success and is always willing to step in and help whenever we have a question or want something to perform differently.

    If you have processes that are now managed and controlled using a spreadsheet, Zapier will give you a lot more control over what is happening and will help you increase productivity by eliminating simple steps such as sending emails and sharing information with your colleagues. It frees time for very transactional activities.

    Pros
    Ventiv Technology
    • The Ventiv team is always ready to assist in solving complex issues in a very timely manner.
    • The entire Ventiv staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to help via phone, email, web ex. Our Customer Success Manager, Doug H. is the best! And Cindy H., Machella G., Josette D., Duane J. ...just to name a few.
    • Love the fact that aspects of our daily tasks are streamlined and can be completed in one central location from claims management, to reporting, policy renewals, and payment processing.

    • Ease of use - multiple people in the organization can set up and run Zaps per their specific use cases without much training.
    • Connectivity - Zapier is able to connect to multiple applications we use on a regular basis.
    • Functionality - Zapier provides embedded functionality within the app itself (email, data conversion), but also appropriate triggers and actions for apps it connects to.
    • Versatile - Zapier can execute complicated and simple tasks and thus has many use cases.

    Cons
    Ventiv Technology
    • Document handling
    • Load case management transfer
    • Slow loading times for tabs
    • Automation to assign diaries to claim assistant instead of examiner or supervisor
    • Pagination and allowing for view of more than 500 records on a tab
    • PDF converter in application requires specific formatting of the Word document
    • Need for work arounds for existing issues
    • Application built more for an Insurance carrier than a TPA

    Zapier
    • Being able to turn off one leg of a Zap without having to delete it or turn the whole Zap off
    • Not all fields populate when using certain aspects of Salesforce, but that could be an SF issue
    • Communication when support is actually needed basically doesn't happen

    We have been using Ventiv Claims for over ten years, and there is a wealth of information in the system. We have not seen any other system that compares to the Ventiv Claims environment.

    Usability
    Ventiv Technology
    Overall, the system is easy to use. Some fields are redundant within the system, which makes it a little confusing, but once you choose which to use, you can easily hide the other field from users so they do not enter information in the other field.

    The interface is very user-friendly, and there are also many tools to help a brand-new user get started. For example, you can put your Zap idea into the AI bot, and it will basically build a shell of your Zap to get started on. The format for each step within a Zap is also very helpful (set up the connection/app, set up the fields/details, then test).

    Overall the support is really good. There are only a few instances where the support could not figure out how to resolve issues we have encountered quickly.

    Before we purchased Zapier, I contacted support and asked them if Zapier could support my intended workflow (this is actually a selection on their support form - awesome). Within 2 hours, I was contacted by a support team member who seemed sure it would work, but granted me premium access for 2 weeks to try it out for myself. Sure enough, it did! Ever since then, support has replied rapidly to any problems I have experienced and answered my questions within a few sentences.

    Online Training
    Ventiv Technology
    During any training provided by Ventiv, the sessions are always two ways. It is not just a lecture that you sit through, they are generally question and answer type sessions that are very good at getting the point across. By keeping the sessions small and manageable, Ventiv can provide the training necessary so that all of the users feel comfortable.

    Implementation Rating
    Ventiv Technology
    Our implementation specialist was exceptional! She went above and beyond in helping us get everything set up the way we wanted it and provided the necessary training to myself, who is the administrator of CE. There was a key piece that was missed by Ventiv during our negotiations before implementation that required us to go back and ended up costing us more money for our incident intake form.

    I have not met with any other RMIS vendors in a very long time. They reach out all the time; however there's no sense in wasting anyone's time. I am happy with Ventiv, there are times I may get upset because there is no response when I ask for something. But I chalk it up to my issue is not top priority.

    We actually utilize both Integromat and Zapier at our company, for all the reasons detailed in this review. Though Zapier is excellent for simple client integrations, we often run into internal use cases that require complexity that Zapier cannot provide. Specifically working with API calls (not just webhooks), complex multi-step integrations with Routing/parsing/etc, and large volume integrations. Integromat is perfect for these use cases, but doesn’t provide the simplicity and account scalability that Zapier offers.

    Return on Investment
    Ventiv Technology
    • We pay about $100K per year in support/update fees it has been very difficult to justify these fees as we don't use support much and many of the updates simply brought the product to an approximate level to what we thought we were purchasing in the first place.
    • Self-hosting and owning the software rather than SaaS is an incredible value.
