Our Recommendation

For most insurance agencies, we would start with Path A to establish credibility and capture leads. The trigger for Path B is usually when policy volume makes manual document management unsustainable, or when clients expect self-service access to their information.

Why This Matters

Own your website and data
Avoid unnecessary platform lock-in
Build around your workflow
Add private infrastructure when needed
