We live in the era of the Digital Revolution. Business models are transforming, customer expectations are surging, and the way we operate and compete is turning upside down.

People drive these organizations and they need solutions that help them excel. Unit4 Business World is such a solution. It helps you unlock your team’s potential to tackle the challenges and capture the opportunities.
A PEOPLE CENTRIC SOLUTION
Legacy ERP systems were built to serve manufacturers and product-based industries. They were not designed to cope with the dynamics and aspirations of service and government organizations, which thrive by empowering their people to drive excellence and innovation.
The ERP needs of people-centric industries are clear – a solution with intuitive user experience and a flexible architecture that moves at the speed they do. Otherwise, innovation is hampered and the costs to adapt explode. Unit4 Business World meets and exceeds those needs by offering consumer-grade experience combined with enterprise strength.
