Sourced limitations

Guidewire ClaimCenter
  • Individual per-carrier case-study surface is sparser than the aggregate roster claim. Guidewire reports 300+ InsuranceSuite customers across 30+ countries; the publicly named individual deployments are a small fraction of that — a structural pattern for incumbent modern vendors whose carrier relationships often run under NDA.
    Source: Apps Run The World
TriZetto Facets
  • Cognizant's own public case-study page for a two-million-member regional health plan on Facets does not name the plan and gives only in-year figures (auto-adjudication rising to 95%, first-pass accuracy 98%, backlog reduction of 97%); named-customer quantitative disclosure for Facets is thin outside anonymised studies.
