Agresso - total business support

More comprehensive and agile systems

Attitudes towards business support systems are changing. Many organizations are looking for a single integrated suite of software, rather than individual solutions, but without the disadvantages of traditional Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP).

In the past, ERP solutions have not only been a significant initial investment but have also required ongoing costly and time-intensive re-coding in order to support business changes after implementation. What’s needed is a more agile best of breed “total” solution.

How can we help?

Agresso business world built on VITA architectureUNIT4 develops and delivers enterprise software that is ideally suited to both public and private sector organizations that operate in a state of frequent and dynamic change. Agresso Business World enables organizations to replace multiple, disparate third-party and internal systems, with a complete and integrated, role-focused ERP solution. Built on our innovative and unique VITA™ architecture, it offers core accounting/financials, budgeting and forecasting, procurement, HR and payroll, project management, field asset management, and reporting and analytics. It has been designed from the ground up to help users easily adapt the system, in line with ongoing business or operational change.

 

Agresso Business World helps customers:

  • introduce a “Can Do” attitude to address any pressure to change – swiftly and at the lowest possible cost
  • satisfy even the most diverse management and operational reporting requirements
  • eliminate inefficiencies across all administrative processes
  • control risk and improve process controls
  • eliminate the costs of maintaining multiple legacy systems.

What is the UNIT4 advantage?

The big difference between Agresso Business World and traditional ERP is that you can keep your system in step with the changing needs and structure of your organization – long after it is first put in place. This “post-implementation agility” is a fundamental part of our solution design. Our VITA™ architecture keeps the system components for data, processes and information delivery in step with each other, ensuring that when a change is made in one area, it does not have to be redone and rechecked for accuracy in another. As a result, instead of being tied to a rigid information system that hinders your growth, your staff are empowered and it dramatically reduces the spend and dependency on external resources. This is true agility, which goes beyond delivering a low total cost of ownership by ensuring customers benefit from something even more significant: a low total cost of change.
