Unit4 Cloud migration

Unit4 are transitioning their Unit4 ERP, Unit4 Financials by Coda, and Unit4 FP&A to fully Cloud-based solutions.

Cloud definitely has its advantages, but it’s not always straightforward to get there.

If you’re an on-premise or non-Unit4 Cloud customer considering a move to Unit4 Cloud, make sure you’re clear on what’s required, the
impact, and the risks you might need to mitigate. We’ve outlined some of the things you need to consider in our blog.

Prepare

Running the Unit4 Cloud Migration Assessment (CMA) tool is the first step in evaluating what’s involved in moving to Unit4 Cloud and better understanding the opportunities this presents. The CMA analyses your current solution and signposts elements that are not portable to Unit4 Cloud.

Making sense of the outputs and understanding the migration options, particularly around customisations and integrations and how these fit with your overall business drivers, can be a challenge. Find out how our complimentary CMA assessment can help you decipher the outputs and get your journey started.

Plan

You may have undertaken some analysis and identified elements that impact on your migration path that require further assessment. This could be customisation, integration, system operation or even better defining your change drivers and desired outcomes.

Completing this due diligence and shaping the right migration journey for your business can be overwhelming, requiring proper analysis of requirements, prioritisation and planning.  Find out how our Cloud Readiness engagement can help you plan for success.

Migrate

If you’ve already taken some analysis and have a clear view of the high-level scope of your migration journey, you’ll be ready to start mobilising your migration. But manging the move to the cloud is challenging.

You need to coordinate workstreams, prepare for new ways of working and manage communications across multiple stakeholders. All this, in conjunction with balancing business-as-usual services, presents a risk to such a large-scale project. Find out how our Cloud Assured offering can mitigate risk and ensure you migrate with confidence.

Cloud benefits

There are lots of benefits of moving to the cloud. These include:

• Long-term cost savings without hardware and maintenance costs.
• Reduced risk with high standards of security, compliance and data privacy.
• Business continuity ensured with built-in disaster recovery and access to additional resources on demand.
• Take advantage of the latest updates and innovation with minimal disruption or downtime.

And don’t forget, with effect from 31 December 2024, Unit4 on-premises solutions and non-Unit4 cloud solutions will no longer be supported or maintained by Unit4. If you have questions about support or managed services in particular, our team will be able to assist you, so get in touch today.
