    Q1’s Constellation ShortLists™.


EARLY ANALYST COVERAGE FOR UNIT4 IN 2022, THIS TIME WITH TWO MENTIONS IN Q1’S
CONSTELLATION SHORTLISTS™.

Global

from  Unit4 Communications March 17, 2022 | 4 min read

Share

The Constellation ShortLists™ examine vendors in particular markets from the
perspective of early adopters. Placements are determined by client inquiries,
partner conversations, customer references, vendor selection projects, market
share, and internal research.

Services-centric enterprise resource planning (ERP) provides financials and
professional services capabilities for organizations that deliver services to
customers. The most important resource in services-centric ERP is human
resources. Offerings in this Constellation ShortList™ include both financials
and professional services automation capabilities. The global ERP software and
services market is expected to be $70.68 billion by 2027 at a 10.9% CAGR.

One of the significant shifts in the past 12 months has been the roles of
journey orchestration, automation and artificial intelligence. Constellation
bases the inclusion of vendors in these ShortLists on their use and integration
of particular “next generation” features and technologies, considering at least
20 in each category.

At Unit4, we’re delighted that they’ve found us to be ahead of the curve in two
of their ShortLists that are highly relevant to our mission – Service-Centric
Cloud ERP and Enterprise Applications Platforms.


SERVICE-CENTRIC CLOUD ERP

As organizations seek to prioritize autonomous processes for more routine
workflows, along with low-to-no FTE setups in their back offices, ERPs in
service-centric and people-centric industries must empower their users. Empower
them to determine which functions are best served by complete automation through
IPA - the augmentation of machine-lead workflows with human exception handling,
and the augmentation of human-lead workflows with machine data handling. And how
to best integrate human ingenuity and judgement into a framework built for our
newly evolved ways of working.

This assessment of the market’s direction is great news for us, as it supports
our recent strategic realignments. The People Platform (and our focus on People
Experience as the primary objective and success factor for an ERP in
human-centric businesses) places user journey at the heart of its functionality.
Automation and AI/ML functionality aren’t just add-ons for our products; they’re
a key component in achieving an experience that keeps people motivated, engaged,
and able to do their work well.

ERPx (the latest and most complete expression of the People Platform’s
capabilities) anticipates further evolutions in this trend. Focused on
composable functionalities and experiences that empower organizations and those
who work within them to create an ERP product that is completely fit for their
purposes.

Our inclusion as one of the 8 solutions to know on this Constellation ShortList™
proves this strategy is paying dividends.


ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS PLATFORMS

In this Constellation ShortList™, the analyst highlights the disarray seen over
the last few years as we struggle to agree on what 21st century best practices
really are. Cloud computing brings us compute and storage capabilities that are
theoretically unlimited. Networking is cheaper (and easier) than it’s ever been.
And remote working and the omnipresence of connected devices such as smartphones
have created an unprecedented level of flexibility in the way organizations
manage their value chains.

21st century best practices can’t be based on the one-size-fits-all best
practices of the past, which were written for a technological landscape that’s
rapidly disappearing. Enterprises must capitalize on opportunities for
customization and automation and look at every point in their value chain to
discover new opportunities for positive change – in their own in-house best
practices and the best practices within their industries.

This need for innovation at all points of the value chain means organizations
must be equipped with an EAP capable of delivering the goods – enabling
integration and extension of new capabilities and building new enterprise
automations that run alongside their existing capabilities.

As before, we’re extremely pleased that the People Platform has made the cut for
this 9-vendor ShortList. Our focus on ease of use and seamlessness of experience
are not just feel-good messaging exercises – we see them as a vital part of the
quest for an application platform that can do everything that Constellation says
the future will demand of them.
