What Are the Key Differences Between TechInsurance and Travelers Tech E&O Insurance?

Priced Two-Policy Bundle vs E&O You Can Buy Alone

TechInsurance sells tech E&O as two policies, E&O and cyber liability, for IT professions including managed service providers and data centers, and says customers pay a median of $67 a month. Travelers writes tech E&O as one agreement you can select inside CyberRisk Tech, so you can take E&O without the cyber agreements. It markets to technology and life-sciences companies from startups to established firms, sells through agents or Travelers representatives, and doesn't publish limits or premiums. Choose TechInsurance if you're a small IT firm that wants E&O and cyber together at a known price; choose Travelers if you already have cyber, are a life-sciences company, or prefer working with a local agent.

Detailed Service Failures vs Broad Error Cover

TechInsurance's E&O half lists errors, undelivered services, missed deadlines, budget overruns and breach of contract, with IP usually added separately; its cyber half covers breaches on your systems and clients' systems. Travelers says its E&O agreement covers alleged errors, omissions or negligent acts in your services, such as a customer's lost revenue from a software error, and keeps breach response and cybercrime on separate agreements. Travelers' Cyber Risk Services monitoring comes only with the cyber agreements. [6] [9] [8]

What Should You Confirm in TechInsurance and Travelers Tech E&O Insurance Quotes?

  • Ask TechInsurance whether both policies are quoted, and ask Travelers which CyberRisk Tech agreements are selected. [6] [8]
  • Ask TechInsurance which insurer issues each policy; Travelers writes CyberRisk Tech itself. [6] [9]
  • Ask both how IP disputes are handled. [6] [9]
  • If you want Travelers' monitoring tools, make sure the cyber agreements are selected. [8]
