According to leading analyst firms, more than 75% of a company's average IT budget is spent just maintaining existing systems and software.

Insurance companies have invested billions of dollars building and maintaining mainframe and client server systems despite skyrocketing costs. Today, leading insurance firms such as Aon, The Hartford, Allianz and others have begun embracing a new alternative—Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)-as a solution to aging and restrictive architectures.

Senior Managing Editor Carrie Burns of Insurance Networking News will lead the discussion with Phillip Spalding from Allianz in London. During the webinar, Phillip will share best practices in implementing SaaS into their environment. The following questions will be addressed:

1. What are the key benefits of a Software-as-a-Service technology model vs. a traditional software model?
2. How did Allianz improve their business processes using SaaS?
3. What were some of the results?

Advanced customization features, flexibility, and faster implementation cycles are all cited as top reasons customers pursue SaaS technology. Attend this web seminar and learn the advantages SaaS has over traditional software-including rapid implementation, simplified maintenance and cost efficiencies. In addition, learn how SaaS applications have been able to put this power to work in enhancing key insurance business processes.
