Overview The insurance industry has successfully weathered many challenges in recent years, from an unstable economy to geopolitical turmoil. Yet, it remains in the midst of a financial squeeze. High claims payouts, declining stock valuations and eroding profit margins are taking their toll. No insurer is immune. Many insurers are turning to mobile and wireless solutions as a cost-effective and high-ROI method of advancing their goals. The paper explores, through charts and graphs, how mobile and wireless solutions can improve the productivity of appraisers, rein in operating costs, enhance revenues through better customer service, boost employee satisfaction and more tightly integrate disparate information systems.
