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.
Vertafore ReferenceConnect is well suited within an organization with many users, who are trying to turn out policy submissions and gain information quickly. It is also well suited for individuals who are trying to learn more specifically about classes of business, what types of insurance coverage is recommended, and what the policies are based on. It opened my eyes to a lot of exposures for class codes that I was not particularly aware of, due to the fact that I am a new agent, and I would recommend this be used for agents who have less than 5 years experience.
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.
Unfortunately, I have not used any additional software programs like Vertafore ReferenceConnect so I am unable to compare them. I do know that my insurance agency likes the capabilities that it has and is not looking for alternatives at this point - this can only speak to the benefit to the organization.
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.
