Why Sembley?: Sembley stands out for its ease of use, user-friendly interface, and reasonable pricing. Patrick McBride discusses how his agency faced challenges with data ingestion and renewals using other technologies, which Sembley simplified with its integration capabilities and workflow support. Key Features of Sembley: Single Data Entry: Input client data once and map it across multiple forms, saving significant time. Custom Intakes and Forms: The platform supports tailored intake forms that clients can fill out, streamlining the quoting process. Client Portal and Automation: Automation and integration with other CRMs (e.g., HubSpot, Salesforce) help agencies manage client data more efficiently. Supplemental Applications: Sembley handles various supplementals and continues to add more based on user demand. User Experience: Patrick emphasizes the intuitive design, which makes it easy for agents to input data and for clients to fill out forms.
