Unlocking success outcomes for our customers

from   | 3 min read

At Unit4, we know that true customer success goes beyond delivering software—it’s about driving ongoing measurable results that align with your organization’s strategic goals. Success is built on a foundation of collaboration, proactive planning, and continuous value delivery. 

Let's take a deep dive into the concept of success outcomes, as a part of our Unit4 Success4U, and how they can revolutionize the way your organization operates.

 

The why behind success outcomes

The approach to software implementation and maintenance is still predominantly driven by technology and functionality, prioritizing the development of new features and technical capabilities. This leads to the common pitfall of devising solutions before fully understanding and aligning with the true business objectives. 

Success outcomes shift this focus from merely enhancing features to achieving genuine increments in business results. They represent actionable achievements that fuel sustained innovation and transformation. By focusing on key metrics, we ensure every goal has real business value attached to it. For instance, one success outcome we enable is optimizing project resource management. This involves empowering businesses to precisely track, allocate, and utilize resources across projects. 

How do we measure success?

In this example of optimizing project resource management, our value-driven Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are:

  • Project timelines adherence – Are your projects delivered on time?
  • Resource allocation accuracy – Are your resources allocated to maximize output?
  • Resource utilization rate – Are your resources being used effectively while avoiding burnout?

The delivery of this outcome hinges on enabling you to focus on these measures. With a structured approach, these KPIs allow for tracking real gains, ensuring that your team has visibility into progress and return on investment.

The role of customer success managers 

Achieving success outcomes doesn’t happen by chance. It requires dedicated guidance and expertise, which is where our Customer Success Managers (CSMs) come in. 

The CSM will work closely with you to understand your business’s unique needs. From there, we design tailored Success Plans that map your goals to Unit4’s growing Success Catalog. Each success outcome in the catalog is supported by predefined, proven, and predictable services. This ensures:

  • Alignment with your business objectives
  • Adaptability to evolving needs
  • A clear path to achieving measurable results
