Guidewire Software, Inc. (NYSE: GWRE), a provider of software products to Property/Casualty insurers, today announced that Donegal Insurance Group has selected Guidewire BillingCenter® to provide it with a new billing system. BillingCenter will allow Donegal to enhance its speed to market.

Donegal successfully implemented Guidewire ClaimCenter® in 2007 and again looked to Guidewire to help it streamline its billing operations. BillingCenter will provide Donegal with a more intuitive and configurable platform, enabling them to further complement the agent and policyholder experience.

“One of the key drivers that led us to choose BillingCenter was our experience with the Guidewire team and ClaimCenter over the past several years,” said Sanjay Pandey, senior vice president and chief information officer, Donegal. “We have been continually impressed with Guidewire’s technology and architecture and are excited about the vision Guidewire has for its products.”

BillingCenter will enable Donegal to:

  • Provide even faster response times and more flexibility to customers; and

  • Quickly enhance the system to continue delivering outstanding customer service.

“A modern, configurable application like BillingCenter makes it easier for policyholders and agents to work together and for us to provide the best possible experience to our customers,” added Pandey.

“We welcome Donegal as a Guidewire BillingCenter customer, and we are pleased to extend our relationship with them,” said Dan Gordon, vice president, Product Management, Guidewire Software. “We admire their dedication to increasing service levels for their customers and agents, and we look forward to helping them transform their billing operations.”
