Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

AgencyZoom

  • Starts at $149 a month for independent agencies, rising to $349 for the Pro tier
  • All plans include up to 7 user seats and extra seats require contacting sales
  • Zapier, Google Reviews and two-way email and texting need the Growth tier at $199 a month
  • AgencyHR, the service centre and events automation are Pro only
  • Integrating with an agency management system may cost extra depending on the system

Riskonnect

  • Total first year cost is dominated by implementation rather than licence; vendor professional services frequently approach the annual licence figure and the internal staff time to define data structures and migrate historic claims is a comparable third cost that never appears in the quote.
  • The platform grew through acquisitions including Ventiv and Sword GRC, so module interfaces and administration models are not uniform and staff trained on one module do not transfer cleanly to another.
  • Licensing is modular, so the price quoted for a claims deployment rises materially the first time the risk team wants ERM or business continuity, and there is little negotiating leverage once the claims data is migrated.
  • Configuration depth means most changes go through an administrator or the vendor rather than an end user, and risk teams without a dedicated system administrator find that change requests queue for weeks.
  • Historic claims data migration quality depends entirely on what the outgoing broker or TPA will export, and incomplete legacy data undermines the multi year trend reporting that was the reason for buying.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

AgencyZoom: What is the maximum number of team seats included in AgencyZoom plans?

All AgencyZoom plans (Essential at $149/month, Growth at $199/month, and Pro at $349/month) include up to 7 seats for team members. Additional seats beyond 7 require contacting the sales team.

Riskonnect: What does Riskonnect actually cost?

Nothing is published. Reported deals range from roughly 35,000 US dollars a year for a narrow deployment to well over 250,000 for a multi module enterprise programme, with implementation services quoted separately and often of similar magnitude in year one.

AgencyZoom: Can I pay AgencyZoom annually for a discount?

Yes. AgencyZoom offers a 20 percent discount when billing annually instead of month-to-month across all plans (Essential, Growth, and Pro). Month-to-month cancellation is available on all tiers.

Source
Riskonnect: How long does implementation take?

Three to six months is typical for a claims and RMIS deployment, longer where historic loss data from several brokers or TPAs has to be normalised.

AgencyZoom: How long is the free trial for AgencyZoom?

AgencyZoom offers a 14-day free trial on all three plan tiers (Essential, Growth, and Pro). The trial includes full platform access to evaluate features before committing to a paid subscription.

Source
Riskonnect: Why not just use the broker supplied RMIS?

Because you lose it when you change broker, and the data model serves the broker reporting rather than yours. Owning the system is the main reason companies pay for one.

Riskonnect: Is it a GRC platform or a claims system?

Both, but the claims and insurable risk core is the mature part. If you want pure GRC without claims, you are buying more platform than you need.
