The beginning of a new era in the insurance industry saw proliferation of new products and distribution channels which promoted rapid growth of the industry. This led to flooding of the market with variety of schemes that put the consumers in a dilemma of choosing the policy with minimum risks and maximum profits. Low financial literacy and poor access to financial services in India continues to pose a problem in adoption of the right kind of insurance product. However, consulting an Insurance broker in this case would solve a majority of problem as they can use their professional knowledge and experience by assessing consumers' insurance needs. This in turn increases the demand for good insurance broking softwares.

Simson Softwares, headquartered in Mohali, established in 2000 has grown from a proprietorship firm to a private limited company. While initially they were more into developing software for various industries; since 2006 they have restricted themselves to insurance. In the early stages, Simson had difficulty in finding customers but now they have a 60 percent market share in insurance and 80 percent market share in reinsurance. While elaborating on the challenges Davendra Singh, Owner, Simson Softwares, says, "We are weak on the marketing front and because of that we are unable to reach most of the customers. We aim to reach most of the people in limited time in the coming future."
