What Are the Key Differences Between Insureon and THREE by Berkshire Hathaway Business Owner’s Policy?

Advisor support during online quoting

THREE directs small-business prospects to an online quote and says licensed Small Business Advisors can help with the process. Insureon also starts with an online quote request, but its BOP overview does not describe advisor support in the product route. A buyer who wants assistance while entering business details can ask THREE for an advisor; Insureon buyers should establish whether a licensed agent will guide the application and explain proposed coverage. [2] [4]

Quote-specific limits and issuer

THREE says the quote's insurance summary lists limits and deductibles, and its linked sample policy names Berkshire Hathaway Direct Insurance Company as issuer for that sample. Insureon's overview does not state limits or name a carrier for an individual quote. The sample is not proof of who will issue a particular THREE policy, so buyers should compare both actual summaries and declarations before relying on any limit or insurer. [3] [4]

What Should You Confirm in Insureon and THREE by Berkshire Hathaway Business Owner’s Policy Quotes?

  • Ask THREE to identify the insurer in your own quote and reconcile the summary's limits and deductibles with the issued declarations. [2]
  • Ask Insureon for its quote-specific insurer, limits, deductibles, and any advisor who can explain them. [4]
