Oranta was recognized in the Policy Administration category and received the Model Insurer recognition based on its work with Sapiens and the implementation of the Sapiens IDIT Software Suite.

Among the many excellent nominations this year, these two companies exemplified best practices of automation of processes, improved channel management, and positioning technology for reuse," says Karen Monks, Analyst with Celent's Insurance Group.
