Save your Finance team from stress and frustration, with smarter month-end reporting.
Cloud ERP Software built for people, not just processes.
Legacy ERP systems force your people to adapt to rigid processes. Unit4 ERPx adapts to how service organizations actually work, connecting finance, HR, and projects through flexible workflows and AI that helps instead of hinders. Ava (Unit4's Advanced Virtual Agent) is built into every process, so intelligence works alongside your team instead of sitting in a separate tool. According to research by Infotech, 87% of users rate Unit4 as essential to their professional success.
Manage the complete record-to-report cycle in one system. Unit4 handles general ledger, accounts payable and receivable, fixed assets, cash management, and multi-entity consolidation with built-in compliance for GAAP and IFRS. Real-time financial data flows into dashboards that surface insights, not just numbers, with Ava flagging anomalies and surfacing what needs attention before month-end. When finance is automated, your team stops closing the books and starts advising the business.
Manage the full employee lifecycle in the same platform that runs your finances and projects. Unit4 handles core workforce data, absence and leave, and organizational changes in one place. Because HR, payroll, and finance share one system, a new hire or role change updates everywhere at once. Ava guides employees and managers through everyday tasks like leave requests and approvals. When your people data is connected, you can plan capacity and forecast costs based on what's actually happening.
Track every project from creation to final invoice in one system. Monitor budgets, bill accurately, and see profitability in real-time. Resource planning connects to HR data so you know who's available and who's overbooked. Time and expenses flow automatically into project costing and client billing, and Ava alerts you to budget overruns and resource conflicts before they hit your margins. When projects and finance share the same platform, you catch margin erosion before it's too late.
Automate purchasing from requisition to payment. Unit4 Procurement gives you visibility into what's being bought, who's buying it, and what it costs. Control maverick spending with approval workflows and preferred supplier catalogs. Negotiate better prices with spend analytics that show exactly where your money goes, with Ava highlighting maverick spend and savings opportunities across categories. When procurement is transparent, budgets stay intact and suppliers stay competitive.

Unit4 integrates AI through Ava, the Advanced Virtual Agent, which provides contextual guidance, automates routine tasks, and surfaces insights from operational data. Ava helps users navigate workflows, supports task execution, and provides alerts and recommendations to improve efficiency and decision-making. Most AI is layered onto systems that see data as rows and fields. ERPx is different. It understands what that data represents, with timesheets as revenue, grants as commitments, and resources as delivery risk, built on a business context layer shaped by decades of real-world use.
Unit4’s AI targets include over 30% reduction in time-on-task, more than 50% fewer errors, and over 60% faster issue resolution across the platform.
Yes. Unit4 ERPx supports multi-entity consolidation with automated intercompany eliminations, multi-currency transactions with multiple exchange rate types, and compliance with both local GAAP and IFRS. The platform handles complex organizational structures across countries and legal entities, with shared services support for centralized operations.
Payroll operates natively in the U.S., Canada, UK, Sweden, Norway, and Australia, with integration to local providers for other regions.
Implementation timelines vary by scope, but Unit4's cloud-native architecture and prebuilt industry models for professional services, public sector, nonprofit, and education accelerate deployment compared to traditional ERP implementations. The platform's #1 ranking in User Adoption reflects its intuitive design, which reduces training time.
Unit4's Success4U program provides dedicated onboarding support, guided implementation, and continuous access to new features through the cloud platform.
