At the end of the research period, 20 insurtech software providers were named 5-Star Insurance Technology Providers award winners.

Applied Systems on the Most Awarded Companies List in the 2023 Best in Biz Awards®

Applied Systems was recognized in the 13th Annual Best in Biz Awards, the only independent business awards program judged each year by prominent editors and reporters from top-tier publications in North America. The 13th annual program saw intense competition among more than 600 entries from public and private companies, representing all industries and regions in the U.S. and Canada and ranging from some of the most iconic global brands to the most innovative start-ups and beloved local companies. Applied won awards in three categories which placed it on the prestigious ‘Most Awarded Companies’ list:

  • Applied Systems won Gold in Most Innovative Company of the Year – Large
  • Applied Net won Gold in Event of the Year

In addition to this week’s awards, Applied Systems was recognized by many prestigious organizations earlier in the year. In August, the renowned 15th Annual 2023 Golden Bridge Awards® honored Applied with Gold for the Most Innovative Tech Company of the Year (2,500+ employees) for visionary leadership, innovative strides in the use of new technologies, laudable employee diversity and inclusion programs. Ivans was honored in the Most Innovative Tech Company of the Year (11 - 2,499 employees) category and EZLynx was honored in the Business Information Solution category for EZLynx Rating Engine.

Later that same month, Applied was selected for the Top 100 Software Companies of 2023 by the Software Report.
