The short version

  • Each has a real cost: 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.; Verisk the ISO content has no real substitute for a carrier writing standard lines, so renewal negotiations start from a position where walking away is not credible.
  • They diverge on capability: InsurancePro covers Policy and client records, Verisk covers ISO forms and rating content.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

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.

Verisk

  • The ISO content has no real substitute for a carrier writing standard lines, so renewal negotiations start from a position where walking away is not credible.
  • Pricing is negotiated separately per product and per line, and large insurers routinely find overlapping agreements across underwriting, claims and actuarial that nobody had counted together.
  • Circular updates to forms and loss costs must be loaded into your policy system on a schedule, which is recurring work that carriers with older platforms do partly by hand.
  • The breadth of the portfolio means account management is spread across product teams, so a problem in one service does not necessarily get attention from the people selling you another.
  • Usage-based components such as data prefill and claims searches make annual spend hard to forecast, and the variance lands in the year you grow fastest.

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.

Verisk: Can a carrier avoid ISO content entirely?

Only by developing and filing proprietary forms and rates, which a handful of large insurers do. For everyone else the filing and legal cost of independence exceeds the licence.

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.

Verisk: Is Xactimate part of Verisk?

Yes. It came with the Xactware acquisition and is the dominant property claims estimating tool in North America, used by carriers and by the contractors they pay.

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.

Verisk: Did Verisk sell off businesses?

Yes. It divested non-insurance units including its energy research business in 2023 and refocused on insurance data and analytics.

InsurancePro: What does it cost?

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