At Millennium, we asked our teams across the globe to look back at our last 100 projects. We asked them to think about the lessons that have stood out, the topics that crop up most often, the problems they’ve encountered, the things that have gone well (and the things that haven’t!).
The result? A fascinating collection of insights into technology, process, and, most importantly, people. Because here’s the truth: people are at the heart of every great business. The best tech doesn’t replace them – it empowers them.
Over the next few blog posts, we’ll be sharing the top four themes that emerged, covering:
Apps, AI, People and Security
App: In the first of a series of guides based on the real-life experiences of the Millennium team, we take a closer look at the often-overlooked Unit4 Financials Tasks App.
AI: Helping you look beyond the hype, to consider how AI can make a difference to your business and how it might shape Coda in the future.
People: We look at one of the most common people-related pitfalls our teams face and how you can avoid it.
Security: Time and again, we see that, no matter how strong your firewalls and other defences are, people are the weakest link in any business’s cybersecurity. We consider some of the most valuable steps you can enact right now to protect not just Coda, but your broader data estate.
Business Apps and The Big Picture
We recently did a Microsoft Teams call. At the customer’s end, it began with about half a dozen project team members in the same meeting room. By the end of it, between the school run and getting out of the city, one by one, each of the participants had left the room. But the meeting continued all thanks to the ability to switch seamlessly to a mobile app. That’s the thing about mobile applications: at their best, they enable “business as usual”, but with an added helping of employee-focused flexibility.
The Unit4 Financials Task App
The Unit4 Financials Tasks App enables you to view, manage, and respond to your financial tasks in real-time and from anywhere.
It eliminates friction. Connecting directly to Coda in real time, users can stay on top of their tasks wherever they are.
You can get everything you need done (and approved). Whether it’s a purchase order, a supplier change, a fresh transaction or all manner of other time-sensitive financial tasks, the app allows you to view, manage, respond and approve from anywhere.
You are always up to date. Because it allows you to access Coda directly, you can edit a range of information (e.g. general ledger information relating to transactions), including real-time updates and values synced with the Unit4 system.
What Next?
Download the Unit4 Financials Task app from the Apple or Android store.
