KEY ADVANTAGES
Unit4 Business World enables organizations to ensure that their people are prepared to meet business demands as efficiently as possible, while nurturing and developing their employees as their organization evolves.
Keeping you ahead of change
Handling change is about more than just analyzing trends or keeping the numbers straight. It affects people, and how they deliver your organization’s strategies and goals. Whether the changes you face are large or small, internal or external, about capitalizing on growth opportunities or surviving through tough times, better people management systems will be crucial. What sets the Unit4 solution apart is its continued agility and flexibility that lets you adjust it yourself to embrace change – long after initial implementation.
More comprehensive for clearer insights
The strengths of our HR & Payroll solutions are multiplied by their tight integration and two-way data exchange with the rest of the Unit4 Business World ERP suite. As a result, your organization is able to benefit significantly from lower administration costs, reduced need for cross-functional reconciliations, increased reliability of data, greater transparency of information across the organization and the associated peace of mind of having robust and reliable business systems. And all underpinned by a shared architecture designed to seamlessly manage ongoing changes in data, processes and information delivery.
Understanding and meeting your needs
Unlike more rigid systems, users can not only configure Unit4 Business World (on an ongoing basis) for the more common processes and requirements but just as easily handle those special or unusual processes and requirements unique to their organization.
