I am proud to share that EZLynx® has earned four Stevie® Awards within the American Business Awards program and under the Insurance Solution category, a testament to our commitment to innovation and excellence. It's incredibly rewarding to see our efforts acknowledged.
Winning these prestigious awards is no easy feat. The competition was intense this year, with over 3,600 nominations from diverse organizations of all sizes. The Stevie Awards are the leading global business awards, celebrating excellence in American and international companies. Within this prestigious program, the American Business Awards® stand out as the top business awards event in the United States. Open to all U.S.-based organizations, these awards honor achievements across many industries and categories.
Our four awards display the breadth and quality of our offerings, with EZLynx Management System™ and EZLynx Client Center™ both receiving Silver Stevie Awards, while EZLynx Retention Center® and EZLynx Rating Engine™ were honored with Bronze Stevie Awards
Silver for EZLynx Management System
The EZLynx Management System earned a Silver Stevie Award for its comprehensive, cloud-based solution that addresses the diverse needs of independent insurance agencies. The judges were impressed by our system's robust features, including automation, sales management, and client retention tools. The tangible benefits were evident in the impressive statistics: agencies using our system experienced 24% year-over-year growth, outperforming non-users by 33 points.
Our commitment to efficiency is reflected in the time savings agencies achieve – an average of 558 hours per month, with a 40% decrease in accounting time. The high customer satisfaction score of 9.7/10 further solidifies our position as a leader in the industry. These results demonstrate how our all-in-one solution effectively improves efficiency and profitability for insurance agencies.
Silver for EZLynx Client Center
The EZLynx Client Center, another Silver Stevie Award winner, stood out for its ability to boost efficiency, reduce administrative burdens, and enhance client satisfaction. The judges were particularly impressed by the considerable time savings our solution provided to agents and agencies. By automating routine tasks and enabling clients to manage their insurance needs independently, we've created a win-win situation for both agencies and their customers.
The numbers speak for themselves: agents save 960 minutes (16 hours) each month by bypassing manual processing, and an additional 700 minutes (11.67 hours) compared to handling requests over the phone. Agencies also benefit from a 500-minute (8.33 hours) monthly time savings by eliminating phone-based transactions. These efficiency gains allow agencies to focus more on growing their business and less on administrative tasks.
Bronze for EZLynx Retention Center
The EZLynx Retention Center, a recipient of a Bronze Stevie Award, was recognized for its intuitive approach to enhancing customer retention for insurance agencies. The judges noted the impressive results achieved by agencies using this solution, including an 8-point higher policy retention rate compared to non-users.
The Retention Center's automated renewal quoting, predictive analytics for identifying at-risk clients, and policy comparison tools significantly streamline the renewal process. Agencies can save up to 15 minutes per renewal with the Retention Center, which adds up to substantial time savings at scale. This efficiency allows agents to focus on proactively engaging clients and building stronger relationships, driving growth and satisfaction.
Bronze for EZLynx Rating Engine
The EZLynx Rating Engine, earning a Bronze Stevie Award, impressed the judges with its ease of use and comprehensive coverage. This comparative rater allows independent insurance agents to obtain real-time personal lines quotes from hundreds of carriers across 48 states, all from any device. The innovative "Quote By Text" feature was recognized for its alignment with modern communication preferences.
The judges noted that EZLynx Rating Engine's impact is evident in its widespread adoption and usage statistics. With over 37,000 agencies using the platform and more than 12 million quotes processed monthly, totaling $142 billion in quoted premiums, EZLynx Rating Engine has established itself as a game-changer in the industry. These numbers underscore the tool's efficiency and crucial role in streamlining the quoting process for independent insurance agents.
