Get your products to market faster without compromising on data security or efficiency.

Transform Your Business With Accelerated Time-to-Market and Cloud Insurance Software for the Entire Value Chain

The insurance industry is constantly evolving, so adaptability is essential for long-term success. You need solutions that can change direction fluidly, but legacy insurance systems aren’t agile or versatile enough to keep up with the market and meet customer expectations.

Duck Creek’s OnDemand uses the power of the cloud to help you scale your business seamlessly. Its Active Delivery model accelerates and automates updates and enhancements, so you can quickly integrate new technologies and deploy new products.

Our software is designed to optimize the insurance lifecycle with its highly configurable, modular system and persona-driven user experiences, which cater to different roles within insurance carriers. 

OnDemand helps you keep up with new trends, technologies, and customer expectations without needing extensive technical knowledge to streamline the entire insurance process lifecycle for your agents and users.

Features of Our Cloud P&C Insurance Software

Highly Configurable

Our modular cloud software allows you to define core components that you can break down into individual products and customize to meet your specific business needs. The layers of abstraction let you configure the system to adapt to different market requirements and demands.

Focused on User Experience

Designed with end users and agents in mind, OnDemand delivers an intuitive, accessible, and seamless UX  to ensure all users can navigate the platform efficiently, delivering higher satisfaction and productivity.

Multiple Environment Support

Our SaaS insurance solution provides distinct environments for development, staging (UAT), and production, allowing you to safely develop, test, and deploy changes. This layered approach minimizes risks and ensures that all updates are thoroughly vetted before going live. The number of environments is also configurable, providing flexibility to best match your business structure and processes.

Why Is a Cloud-Based Insurance Solution Better Than On-Premise?

Scalability for Growing Businesses

Unmatched scalability allows your business to expand effortlessly without heavy investments in hardware or infrastructure. This flexibility is crucial for insurers looking to handle peak loads or enter new markets quickly.

Cost Efficiency and Flexibility

Unlike traditional on-premises solutions, cloud-based software operates on a subscription model with fixed pricing, eliminating the need for large upfront costs. This approach reduces capital expenditures and includes regular updates.

Enhanced Security and Compliance

Cloud providers invest heavily in advanced security protocols and compliance measures, offering protection that often exceeds what on-premises setups can provide. Regular updates and adherence to industry regulations ensure your data remains secure and compliant.

Faster Innovation and Time to Market

With cloud insurance software, you benefit from rapid deployment of new features and seamless updates, allowing your business to innovate faster and respond to market changes swiftly. This agility keeps you ahead of the competition and better equipped to meet customer needs.
