Rated best consolidation/reporting solution among Sweden’s largest companies and public organizations
Bristol, UK, 27th May 2014 – UNIT4, the global leader in software that supports business change, announced today that its Consolidation and Cash product (formerly OCRA) has been ranked as the leading consolidation/reporting solution by Sweden’s largest companies and public organisations, having received the highest user satisfaction rating in KPMG’s Business Intelligence (BI) Lifecycle Satisfaction Survey. UNIT4 Consolidation & Cash was rated best among market leaders including SAP/Business Objects, IBM/Cognos, Oracle/Hyperion and Excel. KPMG runs three annual surveys among CFOs, Finance Managers and Financial Controllers at Sweden’s 500 largest companies and public organisations, providing a business systems benchmark and comparison in the areas of analytics, consolidation/reporting, and budgeting/forecasting.
The UNIT4 Consolidation solution received the highest score in four of the five consolidation/reporting report categories which were:
• Functionality
• Support for analysis
• Helpdesk/support
• Flexibility of contracts
• Innovative solutions
According to the report: “Within these areas there is cause for the market to pay attention to customers’ positive assessment of UNIT4 Consolidation and Cash. It has clear credentials for a leading role in aligning technology and business,” (when asked questions relating to the KPMG Global BI Framework, 31 percent said they could not meet developing business requirements due to poor technology infrastructure and data accessibility).
