Vertafore Agency Platform vs. Zywave Content Cloud - Employee Benefits Content Packages (Broker Briefcase)

I am in IT, and on my end their support is pretty good. Tickets are answered within a few hours on average, sometimes quicker. Anytime we have major upgrades they are on standby to assist if need be. Their teams are also available with larger projects from planning to implementing.

It's a great tool, period. I'd recommend it to anyone who was going to take the time to utilize its varied resources. I wouldn't recommend it for an old-school agency that's not really tech savvy but for anyone looking to grow a book of business, it's an invaluable tool.

• It's pretty darn good and it's my fault that I don't use it as much as I should. I'd love for it somehow to integrate more into my routine but I'm not sure what Zywave could do on their end about that.

Its very good. They have teams for each software product they offer. They have specific teams available for specific tasks such as data migrations, upgrades, etc. The employees they hire for their support teams are always knowledgeable about their products and are good to work with. They also speak clear english which is a plus when details matter and an incorrect or misunderstood word/phrase could cause issues.
