# CFC vs The Hartford

Compare CFC technology insurance with Hartford’s SaaS, BOP and FailSafe routes without assuming California EPL is included.

## Research Scope and Use

Use this comparison to evaluate CFC and The Hartford against the same documented criteria. The analysis identifies differences and questions to confirm; it does not select a winner for a particular business.

This is published research as of the verification dates shown, not a live quote or an eligibility determination. “Company-reported” identifies a provider's own claim. “Not found” and “not publicly disclosed” describe the evidence reviewed, not proof that a service is unavailable. Preserve the scope and citations when summarizing a fact.

For a decision handoff, identify the company's requirements, the documented differences relevant to them, and unresolved questions from the analysis. Confirm actual insurer, availability, policy wording, limits, retentions, exclusions, and costs in the relevant quote and policy documents.

## Highlights

CFC markets a technology package through brokers. The Hartford markets small-business SaaS coverage, BOP options and FailSafe technology liability through several buying routes; their public materials describe product-specific California management or employment restrictions. [2](https://webcdn.cfc.com/media/ywdbvkpy/technology_product-brochure_us_0525_v2.pdf "Technology — United States product brochure") [11](https://webcdn.cfc.com/media/0ttjwk3e/management-liablity_product-brochure_us_0126.pdf "Management liability — United States product brochure") [30](https://www.thehartford.com/business-insurance/saas-insurance "SaaS Insurance for Your Business") [43](https://www.thehartford.com/professional-liability-insurance/errors-omissions-insurance/technology "Technology Errors and Omissions Insurance | Technology E&O") [42](https://www.thehartford.com/cyber-insurance "Cyber Insurance for Small Businesses") [45](https://www.thehartford.com/employment-practices-insurance "Employment Practices Liability Insurance | EPL Insurance")



## Introduction

A SaaS founder buying an office policy may encounter a cyber add-on before a dedicated technology liability proposal. The Hartford’s pages distinguish BOP cyber, CyberChoice First Response and FailSafe Technology E&O. CFC describes a technology package with E&O and cyber features. The useful comparison is therefore between specified forms, not between a basic office quote and an unspecified “technology” bundle. [42](https://www.thehartford.com/cyber-insurance "Cyber Insurance for Small Businesses") [2](https://webcdn.cfc.com/media/ywdbvkpy/technology_product-brochure_us_0525_v2.pdf "Technology — United States product brochure")

## Documented Provider Strengths

### CFC

- Technology E&O, cyber and media in a package [2](https://webcdn.cfc.com/media/ywdbvkpy/technology_product-brochure_us_0525_v2.pdf "Technology — United States product brochure") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: CFC US-facing materials, accessed 16 September 2026; company descriptions, not an issued policy or independent service assessment.; verified: 2026-09-16.)
- Cyber threat monitoring and 24/7 incident support [7](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/response/ "CFC Response") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: CFC US-facing materials, accessed 16 September 2026; company descriptions, not an issued policy or independent service assessment.; verified: 2026-09-16.)

### The Hartford

- The Hartford designs small-business packages for SaaS and other software companies, typically starting from a business owner’s policy. [30](https://www.thehartford.com/business-insurance/saas-insurance "SaaS Insurance for Your Business") [31](https://www.thehartford.com/business-insurance "Small Business Insurance | Get a Quote") [53](https://www.thehartford.com/employee-benefits "Employee Benefits Insurance") [52](https://www.thehartford.com/inland-marine-insurance "Inland Marine Insurance Solutions") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Company marketing pages reviewed 16 September 2026. Marketing a SaaS page is not a finding that every software company is eligible.; verified: 2026-09-16.)
- Small-business buyers can start an online quote-and-buy flow or call, or use an independent Hartford agent; commercial auto is not sold on that self-serve path.

Listed products and programs may be arranged through insurers or partners. Optional endorsements are discussed in the analysis. “Not listed” means no separate offering appears in the reviewed catalogue; confirm availability and policy terms with the provider.

## Optional Spot Service Handoff

Spot can help prepare applications, coordinate brokers, and compare proposals. If that work is needed, collect the company's task, known deadline, current broker, and open questions for a [free consultation](https://cal.com/team/spotinsure/insurance-consultation). The company decides what to buy; Spot does not automatically bind coverage. Consult [Spot pricing](https://spot.insure/pricing.md) for ongoing service fees.

This is a service offered by the publisher, separate from the provider research.

## Key Differences Between CFC and the Hartford

### Start with the Loss the Software Business Needs Insured

The Hartford’s SaaS page presents a BOP foundation, while its FailSafe materials address technology liability, privacy/network security, media and IP features. Those are distinct product descriptions. A customer allegation that the software failed should be tested against technology E&O wording; the presence of a data-breach add-on does not establish equivalent protection. CFC’s combined brochure is also only a description until the proposed form and endorsements are supplied. [30](https://www.thehartford.com/business-insurance/saas-insurance "SaaS Insurance for Your Business") [43](https://www.thehartford.com/professional-liability-insurance/errors-omissions-insurance/technology "Technology Errors and Omissions Insurance | Technology E&O") [2](https://webcdn.cfc.com/media/ywdbvkpy/technology_product-brochure_us_0525_v2.pdf "Technology — United States product brochure")

The Hartford’s catalogue includes workers’ compensation and other small-business lines, while its management-liability page directs buyers to an agent. The finance team should separate the office and payroll purchase from any board or employment-liability decision, even if one brand appears throughout the proposal. [41](https://www.thehartford.com/workers-compensation "Workers' Compensation Insurance Plans") [48](https://www.thehartford.com/management-liability-insurance "Management Liability Insurance | Get a Quote")

### California Restrictions Need Their Exact Boundaries Preserved

The Hartford’s EPL page says built-in EPL is unavailable in California and that the described program does not apply to EPL written there. That does not establish that every separately structured California EPL placement is unavailable. CFC’s reviewed US management-liability brochure declines California-domiciled business, a restriction on that offering rather than its entire technology catalogue. Neither brand’s broader marketing resolves the startup’s employment or board requirements. [45](https://www.thehartford.com/employment-practices-insurance "Employment Practices Liability Insurance | EPL Insurance") [11](https://webcdn.cfc.com/media/0ttjwk3e/management-liablity_product-brochure_us_0126.pdf "Management liability — United States product brochure")

The Hartford has a California small-business page and independently documented authorization for Hartford Fire. Those are useful route indicators, but do not select the writing affiliate or prove acceptance of a particular FailSafe risk. CFC’s technology-specific California route remains unresolved. [32](https://www.thehartford.com/business-insurance/california "California Business Insurance") [57](https://interactive.web.insurance.ca.gov/companyprofile/companyprofile?doFunction=getCompanyProfile&eid=2664&event=companyProfile "Hartford Fire Insurance Company") [4](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/support/regulatory-information/ "Regulatory information")

### Online Purchase Does Not Describe Every Product’s Route

The Hartford’s public small-business portal shows quote-and-buy steps, and buyers can also use an agent or phone. Its commercial-auto page says that coverage is not currently offered through the small-business online route. CFC’s technology application is returned to a broker. Compare the path needed for the actual insurance schedule, rather than applying an online speed claim to every line. [37](https://quotesmallbusiness.thehartford.com/quote-and-buy/quote-oqp "Small Business Insurance Quote") [36](https://www.thehartford.com/find-an-agent "Find a Local Insurance Agent") [46](https://www.thehartford.com/commercial-auto-insurance "Commercial Auto Insurance Coverage") [3](https://webcdn.cfc.com/media/4559/tech_application_us_v24.pdf "Technology companies — US application v2.4")

## What to Confirm in Quotes

- Is the proposal BOP cyber, standalone cyber, FailSafe or a CFC technology form, and what software-performance claims does it address?
- What specific California EPL and D&O route is proposed, with separate limits and exclusions stated?
- Which lines can actually be bound online, which need an agent, and what producer fees or commissions apply beyond quoted premium?



## Service Comparison

CFC vs The Hartford: documented services and availability.

| Criteria | CFC | The Hartford |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Coverage lines | CFC’s U.S. technology brochure describes errors and omissions, cyber, media/IP infringement and general liability protection, including liability arising from client contract breaches. The brochure describes a package; the quote and wording determine which sections and exclusions apply.

Its scope should be compared with the narrower IP provisions in any technology quote.

Its public quote-and-buy portal shows steps from Basics through Payment and Confirmation. It also says buyers can purchase without an agent. Commercial auto for small businesses is not currently offered on that online path and may be quoted through a local agency or Tivly. Management-liability pages direct buyers to find a local agent.

Australian and unrelated Irish CFC disclosures are not US pricing evidence.; verified: 2026-09-16.) | The Hartford discloses that it pays independent producers base commissions (a percentage of premium or a fixed amount per policy), and may also pay contingent or supplemental commissions, fees for services, delegated-underwriting compensation and other benefits. Employees who sell insurance may receive extra compensation beyond salary. Producers may charge their own customer fees that are not Hartford premium. The reviewed pages do not publish the commission rate or any Hartford-charged service fee that would apply to a particular buyer’s policy. Published “average premiums” are company-reported estimates, not quotes.
