40% of umantis projects below budget

As recently stated in Compterwoche, 30-70 percent of large IT projects fail.  According to the project management consultancy Standish Group, every fourth IT project is not completed because of bad project management.  The project management experience of umantis, simplicity of the software, open interfaces to SAP and other leading ERP and HR systems, as well as the proven implementation methodology «Espresso» ensure that umantis customers do not experience any bad surprises during implementation.

Over 70% of umantis customers take advantage of the umantis consulting team, while the rest either use partners with dedicated resources trained by umantis, or need no support at all when implementing their umantis software.  Since 2009 umantis has completed more than 40% of its IT projects below budget - partly even significantly below. The majority of umantis projects is delivered within budget.  «Over the years I have experienced the challenge of estimating IT projects realistically and am very pleased with this result.  The initial implementation of our software is just as important for our customers as the software itself.  These statistics clearly demonstrate the simplicity and open architecture of our software, as well as the wealth of implementation experience within umantis and its partners», explains Ghislaine Rogers, COO at umantis.
