Customers are choosing Dragon for:

• Established policy administration capabilities: Leveraging features and functions completely adaptable to global market needs;
• Market expansion flexibility: Customers are standardizing on Dragon to run all lines of business, enter new markets and introduce products and services quickly;
• Proven self-sufficiency: Strong configuration capabilities enabling customers to independently make changes to the system and execute enhancements to expand their business;
• Implementation methodology advantage: New customers benefit from OneShield's proven implementation practice and methodology, while Dragon's modern technology and backward compatibility help lower total cost of ownership (TCO);

• Flexible data conversion options: Dragon's successful data conversion methodology and execution allows customers to turn data into a valuable strategic asset.

"Despite the high level of activity in the P&C policy administration solutions space, few other vendors have achieved this kind of momentum in the market," said Chad Hersh, managing director, insurance practice, Novarica. "It reflects the industry's desire for modern, flexible solutions and its preference for established players -- two preferences that are often at odds."
