For Total Systems MD Rhys Collins, a key metric of top insurtech companies is that they are adaptable.
“We don’t just point to the contract,” he said. “Instead, we make an effort to really understand what they need. We’re flexible, and I know for a fact that some of the requests we get from our clients, our competitors wouldn’t entertain because they just wouldn’t do it. Our clients tell us, ‘The other system we use wouldn’t even do this.’
“It’s not just the flexibility in how we behave. One of the key mantras about our software is that it’s got to help our clients manage their business in a flexible way as well.”
Having succeeded in a competitive landscape for over five decades, Collins said, he believes that the key to Total Systems’ success has been that it focuses on creating a two-way experience for its customers.
“They know that we’re in it for the long haul, and we’ve got clients that have been with us since the mid-90s,” he said.
