# Which comparative rater for independent insurance agents has the most carrier integrations?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">I've been comparing notes on which comparative rater for independent insurance agents has the most carrier integrations, and the raw numbers from the <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/underwriting-rating"><strong>underwriting and rating software</strong></a> category are easy to line up, so I'll give them first and then the catch that recent reviews add. All counts are the vendors' own: PL Rating claims access to over 320 carriers, TurboRater claims 200+ carriers across all 50 states, and EZLynx claims hundreds of carriers across 48 states. Here's what the evidence supports beyond the counts:</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/pl-rating/reviews"><strong>PL Rating</strong></a>: The biggest stated number at 320+ (vendor-stated), and more usefully, recent review confirmation that coverage holds in practice, with a busy office noting the majority of their carriers work with it. The catch lives in its cons: carrier limitations rank among its most-cited complaints, and recent reviews describe carrier-specific question setups producing quotes that change after bridging, which is what a carrier integration existing but working shallowly looks like.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/zywave-turborater/reviews"><strong>TurboRater</strong></a>: The 200+ claim comes with the all-50-states detail (vendor-stated), which matters more than the headline count for agencies in states the bigger raters treat thinly. No recent review text tests its carrier depth, so the count is a starting list for the only check that matters below.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/ezlynx-ezlynx/reviews"><strong>EZLynx</strong></a>: Hundreds of carriers across 48 states with daily carrier downloads keeping policy data current (vendor-stated), and recent substantive reviews confirm real-time quoting working as a daily habit. Its inaccuracy cons apply here too: connection count and connection quality are different measurements.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/quoterush/reviews"><strong>QuoteRush</strong></a>: Publishes no count and simply claims all of your carriers from one screen (vendor-stated), which is honest in its own way: for a regional agency, the eight carriers you actually write are the only integrations that exist.</li>
</ul><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">The catch recent reviews add to every count above: an integration that returns a rate is not the same as one that returns your rate, with the right questions, credits, and coverages for that carrier in your state. The check that beats every published number: take your top eight carriers by premium volume, run one real risk through each in a trial, and compare against the carrier portal directly. A rater that nails your eight beats one with 300 logos. Anyone willing to share their hit rate: of your appointed carriers, how many actually rate accurately in your rater versus needing the carrier site anyway?</p>

&lt;p&gt;The distinction between connection count and connection quality is a good one. PL Rating&#39;s 320+ carriers give a broad reach, and reviewers confirm strong coverage in daily use, with depth that varies by state and line. So the most useful measure is accurate coverage for the carriers and lines you actually write, rather than a headline number. Respondents naming their state and lines would make the comparison much more actionable.&lt;/p&gt;
