The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Better Agency better Agency's own vendor domain is betteragency.io, not betteragency.com as listed in the catalogue; betteragency.com is an unrelated web design firm (archived pricing captured at 4 April 2025); InsurancePro commercial lines handling is thin next to Applied Epic or AMS360, so an agency that grows into mid-market commercial accounts will usually have to migrate rather than upgrade, and agency management migrations routinely take six months and lose historic activity notes.
  • They diverge on capability: Better Agency covers Policy management, InsurancePro covers Policy and client records.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

InsurancePro

  • An agency leaving paper files and spreadsheets that needs ACORD forms and carrier download without an enterprise implementation projectnot Better Agency

  • An agency owner who wants one supplier relationship covering rating, management and forms rather than stitching three vendors togethernot Better Agency

Where each one falls short

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

Better Agency

  • Better Agency's own vendor domain is betteragency.io, not betteragency.com as listed in the catalogue; betteragency.com is an unrelated web design firm (archived pricing captured at 4 April 2025)
  • Base plan is $149 USD monthly and includes only 3 users; each additional user costs $35 USD per month on top (archived pricing page, 4 April 2025)
  • Paying annually is required to get a 10 percent discount off the monthly rate, with no other discount tier published (archived pricing page, 4 April 2025)

InsurancePro

  • Commercial lines handling is thin next to Applied Epic or AMS360, so an agency that grows into mid-market commercial accounts will usually have to migrate rather than upgrade, and agency management migrations routinely take six months and lose historic activity notes.
  • TurboRater is a separate purchase, so the integration that is the main reason to buy InsurancePro is only available if you pay for both products, which changes the total cost comparison against systems that include no rater at all.
  • Pricing is not published anywhere, so agencies cannot benchmark before entering a sales conversation and the quote varies with agency size and negotiation.
  • Since the Zywave acquisition the product sits inside a portfolio whose strategic focus is benefits and commercial content, which raises a real question about how much engineering investment a small personal lines AMS will attract over the next few years.
  • Carrier download coverage depends on IVANS connections that the agency must arrange with each carrier, so a new agency can spend weeks chasing download authorisations before the automation the system promises actually works.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

InsurancePro: Is InsurancePro still sold under its own name?

Yes. It is now a Zywave product, sold on the TurboRater site as InsurancePro, but it retains its own name and its own product page.

InsurancePro: Do I need TurboRater to use InsurancePro?

No, but without it you lose the quote-to-management data flow that is the main commercial argument for choosing this system over a rival.

InsurancePro: Can it handle commercial lines?

It can record commercial policies and produce commercial ACORD forms, but agencies writing substantial commercial books generally find the workflow and reporting insufficient.

InsurancePro: What does it cost?

Zywave does not publish pricing. Expect a quote based on agency headcount and modules, with rating licensed separately.
