SaaS Benefits

“The Cloud” is the smart solution for today’s agile and growing business.

INScope’s Software-as-a-Service(SaaS) delivery model replaces the financial, staffing and IT equipment barriers associated with traditional licensed policy administration (PAS) and insurance processing solutions.

What clients get is a predictable, pay-as-you-go pricing model that eliminates high-cost, high-maintenance, quickly depreciating licensed solutions – and their unknown post-procurement costs.

No surprises. Just solutions. INScope SaaS provides the following strategic advantages:

  • Variable Costs Become Fixed Costs: INScope SaaS provides client organizations with expert IT staff and a fixed monthly expenditure versus a multitude of otherwise variable and uncontrollable costs. It takes implementation, hardware, software, recurring labor costs – and more – and places them into a predictable, fixed monthly expenditure. Such long-term cost predictability enables strategic IT planning and spending without the fear of unscheduled and costly budget-breakers.
  • Reduced Implementation Time & Cost: INScope SaaS significantly reduces implementation time and costs. How? The software already is located on high performance hardware in state-of-the-art IBM® e-Business Managed Hosting™ data centers. With our existing pre-configured and production ready network, INScope SaaS clients eliminate installation issues related to application software, relational databases, network infrastructure and other hardware and data environment issues.
  • Total Cost of Ownership (TCO): INScope SaaS clients avoid the initial, often costly investment in software, hardware, and support services by leasing a proven insurance processing solution and world-class infrastructure – on a predictable, pay-as-you-go basis.
  • Focus on Your Core Business – Insurance, Not IT!: INScope SaaS allows carriers to focus on managing and growing their business by relieving them of the day-to-day IT troubleshooting and distractions. Utilizing Focus Technologies’ IT experts frees internal management and resources to focus on the company’s strategic projects, while offloading a function that is constantly changing and difficult to manage.
  • Access to On Demand Scalability: Our INScope SaaS solution provides on-demand scalability as your company grows, without you having to invest in advance in additional hardware, software, infrastructure or internal IT support. This is especially useful for those carriers in catastrophe-prone areas of the country who are likely to experience peak periods of demand when a catastrophe strikes.
  • Focus On More Strategic IT Initiatives: Users of INScope SaaS report fulfillment of more corporate strategic IT initiatives. Many carriers spend the majority of their IT budgets on PAS maintenance costs (new development, hardware, software, upgrades, etc.) and IT support. With no hardware or software procurement, and IT labor bundled into the pay-as-you-go pricing model, INScope SaaS allows carriers to reallocate their IT budgets away from PAS maintenance and support and toward value-added technology initiatives.
  • Reduce IT Staff & Costs : INScope SaaS clients avoid employing the developers, DBAs, system administrators and IT management staff necessary to operate and maintain PAS. Beyond saving on payroll and benefits, INScope SaaS eliminates the recruiting, hiring, managing, and personnel issues associated with IT labor resources. Even ongoing training is reduced – or eliminated. Carriers know they have a team of experienced, reliable IT professionals versed in the increasingly complex and ever changing nature of technology. This is critical as it grows increasingly difficult for carriers to efficiently staff they myriad of professionals required to operate an effective enterprise PAS environment.
