Vertafore Announces Landmark Agreement with Allstate

Download certification can help Allstate agents take their business to the
next level

BOTHELL, Wash., July 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Vertafore (http://www.vertafore.com), a
provider of market-leading software and services to the insurance industry,
today announced that its agency management systems are certified to receive
data from Allstate Corporation.

As a result of this agreement, Allstate's nationwide network of more than
10,000 exclusive agents now have a streamlined process to download
customer-related information to Vertafore's industry-leading management
systems, including AMS 360, InStar and Prime. This latest agreement enables
Allstate agents, including Encompass agents, to download customer data into
Vertafore agency management systems. By making better use of these management
systems, Allstate's agents can improve the service they provide to their
customers and grow their premium volume.

"While Allstate agents realized the value of our industry-leading management
systems, they were clear they needed download capabilities to maximize the
benefits of using them," said Gytis Barzdukas, vice president, product
management, Agency Markets with Vertafore. "We appreciate the work of the
Allstate team to develop this solution and are excited by the fact that
Allstate exclusive agents now have the option of using Vertafore's management
systems to improve agency productivity and better serve their customers."

By downloading Allstate data into Vertafore's management systems, Allstate
exclusive agents now have access to the full array of customer data, including
billing, claim and coverage information. This consolidated view of the
customer enables agents to be more responsive to customer inquiries and
provide a higher level of customer service. The built-in insurance accounting
module and the ability to reconcile reports from multiple offices helps agents
eliminate duplicate data entry, allowing them to improve efficiency and
workflow to increase the bottom line. In addition, agents now have a broader
perspective on coverage needs, and as a result can write more comprehensive
polices, which can often increase agency sales.

"We pride ourselves on our high standard of service, always striving to put
the customer at the forefront," said Lincoln Salmon of Salmon Agency. "With
Vertafore's AMS 360 management system, we are able to successfully track and
effectively market to our prospects, all while growing our revenue Vertafore
has enabled us to consistently meet and exceed customer expectations."
