I needed a business insurance and a friend recommended Simply Business. I’ve had no problem so far so that’s good.

Simply Business had good customer service. The reps communicated well and took care of my concerns. They offered me business insurance for my new company and got me the lowest price. I would use them again.

Sales-wise, I loved the way the system is set up. I don't have to contact anybody when I was getting the service. Everything was automated. Within 10 minutes, I purchased the plan. Today, when I had to cancel, I had to talk to somebody. It felt good because it took two minutes for them to answer the phone. To have someone in America answer the phone on the customer service side, it was great.
When I was buying the insurance, reps told me I could only sell groceries and some toys and I cannot sell certain products. The fact that they give advance notice on what you are gonna be selling, that's good. People need to know the product that they're selling before they buy insurance, because some products could be hazard. You might wanna shop and ask more questions about the type of the product that you’re selling.

I worked with Bruce ** at Simply Business and he was amazing. Bruce knows insurance like no other. He was very professional and explained everything to me so that I could understand it. The best thing was he found me the lowest rates and didn't try to sell me anything I did not need. I recommend all small businesses starting out to contact Simply Business for a quote, it was worth the effort.

The whole process of getting Simply Business was simple. You just click through QuickBooks instead of actually having to get on the phone. It is 500 bucks and I needed it to do something with the business at the time.

The process with Simply Business was very easy and was mainly an application online. I paid the premium and it was over. We've been in the business for over 11 years now and I've shopped around other times but this company seems to be the lowest premium. So, I didn't bother shopping around this year. This is my second year with Simply Business and they are saving us about $400 a year. I have recommended them many times to self-employed people in our business. So, hopefully, they took me up on the offer and went with them because they're very simple, just like their name.

Simply Business is cost-effective and they're pretty straightforward. They're also sending me some information on how to get invoices and payments correctly. So, that's valuable.

So far, this is my second year with Simply Business and I haven't had any problem. They keep me on the ball. There are a lot of things going on that I personally cannot take care of. So, I need that help and support of their insurance. Even when I don't run into trouble, they can guide me before I get into trouble.

Working with them was fairly simple and I got things taken care of within a half hour. I like the fact that it's not just one captive insurance company, where I had a couple of choices.

They were the first ones that were able to get a policy for us and our experience was great. They called me and we got it done right away. I appreciate how quick they responded. There wasn't pressure to sell me on a product. They gave me four different options to choose from. They knew what I wanted and they took care of what I needed. They gave me exactly that. Also, the website is simple.

I just started a new company doing tree removal. They're one of the agents that would cover that and so far, things have been great. I'm pretty computer illiterate and I made it through their website with ease. Everything seemed to be there in black and white. My experience with them is in great standing and I'm sure the future is going to be fine because we're extra cautious.
Reviewed Sept. 4, 2021
Simply Business got me to the people who would take my business. The website asked me a bunch of questions about my business and what kind of insurance I wanted, and then I said so. They said that they would have an agent contact me. It was overall a good experience.

My partner and I looked at a few different companies. He was working on a job, and I was on another one. We came together at a Walgreens, navigated Simply Business' website, and I asked, “You like this?” He said he liked it and I liked it as well. We called them up in the truck and talked to a lady who was very nice. It was that easy. We got everything done in 35 minutes, and everybody I've dealt with, so far, has been good folks.
We got a million dollars in just liability for an injury (not of one of our employees). Let's say we drop a board on somebody while we're working. A customer, for instance. It gives us liability insurance. If something happens and we tear up or destroy something while we're working, we also have vehicle coverage. People would be ignorant not to have business insurance. You're talking about somebody suing. Chances are I may never use the insurance, but it's better to have it. Plus you got to have it to get jobs here, especially in any kind of plant.

When I looked at Simply Business' payments and plans, I got the same benefits for less pay. I need to get the insurance back again but right now, it's just not feasible. As soon as we get these complications straight, I'm going to be re-putting my insurance back on.

The reps were extremely helpful, knowledgeable, insightful and quick to respond. I had an addendum I had to make and it was done within five minutes. So, that’d been fantastic. We’re a super small business and we operate on a global scale because we import our manufacturing and stuff from other countries. A lot of our talents is overseas and we don't have that many employees in our domestic talent. We have our vending location which has five employees there and the rest of us operate remotely. So, it was a perfect opportunity to be able to establish the workers' comp and the insurance coverage to cover the city as well as ourselves for the many experiences that we do like the street fairs and carnivals. Simply Business explained exactly the process of going through, setting that up and making sure that we were covered in all aspects to take the liability off of the city as well as to cover us if there was anything that was out there to cover our customers if anybody got hurt.

Simply Business used to be my business insurance broker because they didn't have an endorsement I needed. So I cancelled it and they kept all of my money. I had to pay another $1,000 for another policy, and then they said that they weren't going to give me my $1,000 back. When I first signed up, they told me I had to put a third down. The rep then told me that they would take 15% out and give me the refund. She also said that 15% was around 900 so I told her to go to hell. If the total policy was 2,100 then I don't understand why a third is 900. This is a scam. I've still got to address my bank about it because they're not just gonna take $900 from me. That's crazy.

Just wanted to say thanks. I have reached out for assistance twice. Once to see about adding coverage; and once to change address. Both times, the customer service was awesome. We wish all our vendors were this way. Thanks and keep up good work!

I searched on the internet, looked at a number of different sources, and after talking with a couple of different insurance carriers, I decided to move forward with Simply Business because of price, convenience, and coverage.
