What Are the Key Differences Between Mylo and Travelers Business Owner’s Policy?
Tech Firms Get Two Extra Coverages With Travelers
Travelers limits this BOP to named tech occupations: computer installation and repair, data processing, internet providers, IT consulting and training, software and web development, and web hosting. For them it folds cyber liability and errors and omissions into the property, liability and lost-income package. Mylo's BOP stops at those three core parts, so a tech firm would buy cyber and professional liability separately. Choose Travelers if your business is on that occupation list; choose Mylo if it isn't. [2] [5]
Agent Versus Online or Phone
You buy the Travelers tech BOP through an independent agent, with optional Xtend, Employment Practices Liability+ and World Business Essentials add-ons for overseas travel. Mylo lets you shop online through its Mind of Mylo tool or call a licensed advisor in any of the 50 states. Travelers is on Mylo's carrier panel, but Mylo doesn't say it can quote this tech-specific form. [5] [1]
What Should You Confirm in Mylo and Travelers Business Owner’s Policy Quotes?
- If your business straddles tech and something else, ask a Travelers agent whether you qualify for the tech BOP. [5]
- Ask Travelers whether cyber and errors and omissions carry lower sublimits than the rest of the BOP. [5]
- Ask Mylo whether any BOP it quotes includes cyber or professional liability. [2]
- Get the issuing insurer and limits from both; neither publishes BOP limits. [5] [2]
