Infor SunSystems vs. Unit4 Financials by Coda

I think the integration side of Infor SunSystems is really good where by it works well with our other business systems. It is easy to pick up for new staff members. We have not had to hold full blown training courses for unfamiliar users, they were able to use existing documentation and guides. The graphical interface is a drawback as it feels like you are using an old system.

This would work well for the back side of accounting...meaning after the invoice was created. If you need software to create invoices, this may not be the software for you (or at least you would have to do additional research on its capability). Other than that, it takes care of the majority of our needs.

• Integration options are very good. We are able to import data in a number of ways and extract data as well. The use of their built in API for data validation, extraction and entry is working very well for us.

• It is easy to move around in if set up properly.
• You can changes background colors to your choice.

Incentivized

• Although easy to use, Infor SunSystems has a very classical look which comes across outdated
• Reporting feature is Infor SunSystems is not the best as it is not easy to create reports and the built in reports are limited in the filter options available
• The Audit function needs configuring and is not ready out of the box so when you come to requiring audit data you can only retrieve after set up

• There is a lot of "building" when first starting up with the software.
• Some of the data you cannot pull unless you have sequel knowledge, although capabilities are getting better.
• There is not a good operating statement report option.

More functionality, better integrations, better reporting.

Unit4 Financials is definitely much more robust than Peachtree or other software. I've also used SAP in the past and this seems to have many more capabilities.

• With the cost of living we had to reign in the budget this year. As it's easy to export data out of Infor SunSystems we were able to report on spend and gain greater control of outgoings
• One of our objectives is to build new homes for people. Infor SunSystems allowed us to budget and forecast all the costs to determine what we could achieve
• With Infor SunSystems being a popular accounting software we are able to recruit previous Infor SunSystems users therefore not having to spend on training staff which is very costly.

Incentivized

• Because of the lack of operating statement reports, we've had to spend additional funds to use another system.
• It does show data in real time, so no waiting for batches to update overnight.
• You can do a lot of customizing to meet your own needs.
