The new program formalizes Applied\u2019s decades-long commitment to an open, connected ecosystem, giving vendors a clear, single path to certification and giving mutual customers a faster, lower-cost way to activate the technology partners of their choice.<\/p>\n<p>Every certified vendor completes a thorough onboarding and certification process, ensuring each integration meets Applied\u2019s standards for quality and reliability before it ever reaches an agency or brokerage. Activating a certified integration is easy, faster than a standard integration build, and doesn\u2019t require any additional purchase from Applied. Certified vendors have access to the latest Applied Epic releases, ensuring integrations stay current, reliable, and ready to meet their most demanding challenges. Initial companies with certified integrations include Ascend, Adapt, Coverflow, Fulcrum, Inteveo EcoLink, Lightspeed, Outmarket, Quandri, RecordLinker, Sonant, and Xilo, with more expected to join in the months ahead.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cApplied has long supported a vibrant ecosystem and this program formalizes that approach, creating a faster, simpler, lower-cost way to integrate third-party technology into our management systems,\u201d said Graham Blackwell, President, Applied Systems. \u201cApplied is deeply committed to solving the hardest problems in insurance and we\u2019ll do this by bringing more innovation than ever and connecting more integrations, letting customers choose how technology powers their business.
