Esurance empowers Bay State drivers to make smart choices about their car insurance by providing affordable rates, a convenient mobile app, comparison quotes from other leading insurance companies, and 24/7 customer service. The company is backed by Allstate, the largest publicly held personal lines insurer in the U.S.

Drivers who choose Esurance have a wealth of useful interactive online tools and technology that make the car insurance process easier and more transparent, including:

• A website that is number one for its overall ability to support car insurance customers. Esurance came out on top in a 2012 survey¹ by the Customer Respect Group, besting insurance companies such as GEICO, Progressive, and Nationwide.
• Teen driver safety device — free technology for Esurance's teen drivers to help prevent distracted driving. The device can provide email alerts to parents when their teen uses a mobile phone to make calls, send texts, or access email, internet, and other smartphone applications while the car is in motion.
• Coverage Counselor® — helps Massachusetts drivers select the right coverages for their insurance needs. The Coverage Counselor enables drivers to see how their personal circumstances impact their insurance premiums². Questions and suggestions are state-specific, so consumers get highly relevant information that can help them make better, more informed decisions about what levels of insurance coverage may be right for them.
• DriveSense™ discount program — qualified drivers get an immediate five percent discount on their first six-month policy term when they install a small telematic device in the car's onboard diagnostic port (OBD), and could realize a discount of up to 30 percent³ on their future car insurance premiums.
