"We are very excited to partner with InsWeb® and believe this partnership will give Allstate® agents an incredible advantage over their competitors," said Stephen Bentley, Director of Product Development at Quote Burst(TM). "Imagine eating dinner at home with your family, and a lead hits your inbox. You'll know that Typhoon will automatically return an actual quote to the prospect in 2-3 minutes."
