iPipleing got a double set of kudos from Celent last week. iPipeline led the Life/Health distribution Metacategory in Celent's 2009 "Insurance Software Deal Trend Report" with 51% of Deal Volume. The 2009 Celent "Traction Index" also had high marks for iPipeline by the amount and types of agreements the software provider held during a selected performance period. iPipeline provides the nation's top insurance carriers and distributers, on-demand software for marketing, selling and processing solutions.

"iPipeline has a legacy of knowledge and experience in the insurance industry that spans more than 10 years. Our iGO Suite is emerging as the preferred solution among top carriers, because iGO e-App(tm), our intelligent fillable application form, corrects what has typically been an error-prone process. Reducing cycle time and increasing placement ratio are common goals shared by our carriers, and iGO e-App accomplishes this goal by eliminating error and increasing productivity," said Tim Wallace, CEO, iPipeline. "Receiving validation from Celent for our 2007-08 sales accomplishments means a lot to us. We remain committed to providing our carriers, distributors and agents with solutions that improve their business results."

"We would like to extend our congratulations to iPipeline for being named as leading vendor in the Life/Health Distribution Metacategory," said Craig Weber, Senior Vice President of the Celent Insurance Practice. "Carriers value technology partners who focus on the insurance vertical and demonstrate a long-term commitment to it. iPipeline's deal flow places them in that category."
