EZLynx

  • Pricing is not published; the vendor sets it by user count and by which products an agency takes
  • Sold as separate pieces, the management system, the comparative rater and agency websites, so a full stack is several purchases
  • Built for independent insurance agencies rather than carriers or brokers in other lines
