Description:

No major surprises from Houston, TX based 1stQuote this quarter. The firm continues to offer term-life shoppers instant online quotes from a selection of brand-name insurance carriers. The offering boasts a highly streamlined quote form and allows consumers to enter the application request process directly from returned quotes. While the site contains limited educational content, time-pressed insurance-seekers with a basic understanding of life insurance may find 1stQuote an attractive place to start.

Benefits:

No-nonsense online term life quotes are the focus of this offering. As a plus, the firm allows users to request a re-quote directly from the list of returned quotes. As a licensed agency, 1stQuote allows applicants to return to the site and inquire into the status of an application (try clicking on the "account management" tab.) Moreover, 1stQuote will automatically update applicants via e-mail throughout the underwriting process - a hallmark of this offering.

Shortfalls:

NY residents may not find 1stQuote the best option for their needs, since the firm only offers quotes from one carrier - American Mayflower Life of NY. Moreover, while the 1stQuote offering contains a sampling of educational information the firm buries it in the help/FAQs area of the site.
