What is Duck Creek?
The Duck Creek Difference
Duck Creek solutions are based on modern technologies that empower P&C carriers’ business users by providing flexible and dynamic tools that enable process improvement, next-generation user interfaces, and a future-ready technology platform. Insurers’ business users gain the ability to better and more responsively serve their customers, through the development of new and innovative insurance products that can be introduced into the market rapidly and easily maintained over the life of the product(s), as well as through improved responsiveness to customer interactions via Duck Creek’s user interface options.
Duck Creek helps carriers achieve their objectives by:
Supporting profitability and policy volume with increased speed to market, by helping to deliver new products targeted to, and customized for, insurers’ specific markets. Increased quality can be achieved by defining and managing all product features in one powerful, easy-to-use, and integrated development environment. The Duck Creek Platform helps carriers innovate, create, deploy new products, and expand into new markets in record time.
Building new products and updating existing products rapidly – The Duck Creek Platform utilizes an industry-leading flexible product definition and development toolset that allows business users to manage product changes without changing code. This frees up IT professionals to focus on more strategic initiatives instead of handling day-to-day changes to insurance products. This integrated product development environment is a single location within our software that allows business users to quickly manage and change rules, rates, product documentation, tasks, testing, and modeling. The Duck Creek Platform was designed from the start to feature “single point of change” functionality that allows business users to make changes in a single place – not myriad places within multiple systems – saving time and maintenance cost.
Streamlining processes – Duck Creek helps carriers streamline operations by using one single platform to serve many audiences. This eliminates steps in the issuance process and makes any insurer easier to do business with.
