About Guidewire

Your success drives everything we do at Guidewire
Insurers have long been poorly served by technology vendors who lacked understanding of the P/C industry, underestimated the complex challenges involved, or oversold and under delivered against insurers’ expectation. There had been many vendor failures, and insurers lacked options other than to wrestle with the limitations of their aging legacy systems. Guidewire provides powerful software, but that is only part of the solution. We also provide you with the delivery expertise to successfully implement the system and commit to supporting you in the long run.

I would not recommend this software as it has too many holes out of the box, and extensions are difficult to build and manage.

Pros

GW offers a consistent theme between all of their X-Centers. It is also fairly straightforward to navigate through their OOTB screens.

Cons

Their customer service has been almost nonexistent since our first lines started to convert to their cloud platform. There is no formal data dictionary or data model, meaning data is impossible to sort through or map with legacy detail. As a product owner their product is complicated in many of the wrong ways, in unnecessary rating complexity and deployment difficulties. We regularly have GW-hosted environments go down.

My experience with Guidewire in last 3 years is amazing. Its a great product to work upon and it gives really insightful learning on the functional as well as technical front.

Pros

The Guidewire software is very easy to use. It is very user friendly and covers the functionalities in most efficient way. It doesn't change its user experience drastically as the line of business changes so its easy to work with.

Cons

The complexities of insurance business makes any product which it has in the industry makes it complex. Guidewire is a complex product overall. It requires a basic training of the functionalities of the product to work with.
