Sourced limitations

EIS Group
  • Many EIS customer references are hosted on EIS's own site or blog rather than third-party case studies. AIG Canada and AMI Insurance are traceable to Celent Model Insurer write-ups; Desjardins, CSAA, Tokio Marine, Wellfleet and Liberty Mutual Benefits references originate from EIS press releases and case studies. Absolute customer count and revenue are not publicly disclosed.
    Source: EIS Group
Sapiens
  • Sapiens's customer base of 600+ is cited in aggregate on the vendor's own site; individually named carrier case studies exist per product line but are not consolidated in a single authoritative source. Traction score on this fiche therefore reflects aggregate rather than per-carrier verification.
