Guidewire Remains the Leading Provider of Software to P&C Insurers

Eric Compton

Guidewire is the leading specialist provider of core software to property and casualty insurers. Its products run mission-critical workflows spanning policy administration, billing, and claims, and the company now serves carriers representing more than 25% of industry direct written premiums. The central strategic opportunity is the industry's long-delayed modernization: many insurers still operate inflexible legacy systems, in some cases rooted in technology built decades ago, while Guidewire is moving customers toward the InsuranceSuite Cloud.
