Before the COVID-19 pandemic, digital adoption from insurers was slow and organic, and often experimental in nature. Certain aspects of operations were seeing digital solutions being introduced, but businesses fundamentally remained manual despite customers’ increasing demand for digital engagement.
However, the pandemic was a catalyst for adoption overnight. Instantly, insurers needed no-touch claims and struggled with physical site visits due to lockdowns. Besides, customers only wanted digital services, but insurers simply weren’t ready for digitalisation.
This is where 360Gobalnet’s no-code technology is so transformative. 360Globalnet introduces a new era of insurance claims management by digitising the entire claims lifecycle from first notice of loss to settlement. Policyholders are provided with a frictionless customer experience in line with the rest of their contemporary consumer lives. Supply chain orchestration and automation slash the operational cost of claims management.
“We offer complete end-to-end no-code digital claims,” says Paul Stanley, CEO of 360Globalnet. “Unlike other options, it can be configured fast, implemented even faster, and can digitally wrap around legacy platforms to plug the gaps no longer suitable in the post-COVID world. As such, whilst in lockdown, demand for 360Globalnet technology massively
ramped up.”
Overnight, the company was able to help multiple global insurers go digital, rescue BI insurers from drowning, and reinvigorate legacy systems no longer fit for the future. Volumes were scaled and new customers were deployed without a hitch, and demand for end-to-end no-code digital claims continues to accelerate. By meeting this challenge, 360Gobalnet proved the power of no-code technology, delivering speed and efficiency where hard-coded solutions would fail – and it has enabled the company to adapt quickly in the same way it does their clients.
“We’ve done all this with sustainability in mind, too,” says Stanley. “Our tech contributes to a more efficient future where, for example, live steaming video with customers to investigate damage was once a gimmick. It’s now the norm – unless a physical visit is absolutely necessary. Our video technology has saved over 250,000 driven miles in the last 12 months.”
“We offer complete end-to-end no-code digital claims. Unlike other options, it can be configured fast, implemented even faster, and can digitally wrap around legacy platforms to plug the gaps no longer suitable in the post-COVID world”
