Open GI Gives Developers Back Their Time With Agility
Open GI is a leading technology provider supporting the general insurance market throughout the UK and the Republic of Ireland. With a head office located in Worcestershire, they are part of the broader Open International Group. Their software is trusted by brokers, insurers, Managing General Agents (MGAs), and underwriting agencies.
Limited By a Developer-reliant Legacy System
Open GI struggled with a legacy configuration system that required a lot of development input. However, since switching to Agility, they can now alter configuration for websites and deploy within minutes without developer input.
Multisite Management For Individual Brokers
Brokers managing websites were previously unable to make changes to websites on their own without developer input. A small website change could take up to a week to complete and needed to be done by a developer. Open GI desperately needed a solution that would give editors back control and allow them to update pages on their own.
Now that brokers and editors can manage the varied content on customer websites with Agility, it has provided an enormous time and cost-saving benefit.

Agility Reduces Overreliance on Developers
Agility has reduced the overreliance that Open GI had on developers. Configuration changes that required deployment through release pipelines by IT staff and developers can now be managed in Agility, delivering real-time cost savings on minor configuration changes.
Bespoke configuration items can be built using custom extensions, and developers also love the speed of Agility’s APIs. At the same time, editors can enjoy Agility’s easy and intuitive content modeling.
