Lexington and Taunton, MA (PRWEB) January 22, 2008 -- FirstBest Systems®, Inc., a provider of advanced underwriting management systems (UMS™) for commercial insurance carriers, and eMaginetm, a leading Web design/hosting and marketing consultancy, today announced the launch of FirstBest's redesigned website (www.firstbest.com) following an intensive 3½-month joint effort.

FirstBest, a thought leader and innovator in underwriting management systems, wanted a site that was chic, clean and creative-looking, without resorting to stock photography. According to Meira Primes, VP of Marketing: "eMagine was very responsive in delivering a fresh new look that was on target, with quality and creative ingenuity. eMagine really stepped up to the plate to help meet FirstBest's targeted 3-½ month launch date and deliver a significant improvement to our look and functionality."

Said eMagine's President, Bill Gadless: "A recent Insurance & Technology story stated that 'Automating underwriting can help insurers bring more objectivity and discipline to the process...while improving efficiency.' FirstBest's UMS solution for underwriters, underwriting management and agents is doing just that, and has created substantial 'buzz' in the few months since its general release. We were thrilled to have the opportunity of helping to upgrade the Internet presence of such an outstanding and dynamic, innovative company."
