First half of 2024 demonstrates Unanet's
momentum and market leadership
DULLES,
Va., July 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Unanet,
the leading provider of project-based enterprise resource planning
(ERP) and customer relationship management (CRM) for the government
contracting (GovCon), and architecture, engineering, and
construction (AEC) industries, recorded a strong second quarter of
2024. Over the past three months, Unanet achieved a record-high
customer count, won multiple industry awards, and rolled out
important new product innovations. With yet another stellar
quarter, Unanet has cemented its place as the standard-bearer in
the industries it serves by providing customers with easy-to-use
business software and friendly, accessible, human-powered support
that are both best in class.
In Q2 2024, Unanet secured dozens of new customers in the
GovCon and AEC industries. When selecting Unanet, customers
routinely voiced sentiments similar to other GovCons and AEC
firms who cited Unanet's superior customer service, usability,
and ease of doing business as motivations for upgrading from their
legacy software providers.
Thousands of these same customers attended Unanet's 2024
Champions Conference in May, an annual event dedicated to helping
them make business connections while learning how to derive the
most value out of the Unanet platform. The conference, held this
year in New Orleans, saw its
largest-ever turnout and featured an inspiring keynote address from
Shazam founder and entrepreneur Chris
Barton. Customers took part in enlightening sessions,
networked with likeminded colleagues, and learned more about how
Unanet makes business easy.
Based on feedback from customers in the second quarter, the
independent, user-based business software rating service G2
Research named Unanet number one in project-based ERP results
for GovCon small and medium businesses (SMB) and mid-markets.
G2 also identified Unanet as a momentum leader for the AEC market.
Unanet's overall combined customer satisfaction score ranked higher
than any other ERP provider in the report.
"We have sustained our momentum in the ERP and CRM markets
because government contracting and AEC firms are running to us from
their legacy providers, saying they prefer to work with a
technology partner who helps them succeed instead of making
business more complicated," said Craig
Halliday, CEO of Unanet. "Whether it's industry awards and
G2 accolades, or the way we're introducing new product enhancements
that actually make business easier for customers, or our dedicated
customer support staff, Unanet has the right mix of industry
expertise, service, and technology to win over customers every
time."
Unanet continued to build its leadership team in Q2 with the
appointment of Jay Johnson as the
company's new Chief Revenue Officer. A veteran sales leader at
numerous successful software and technology companies, Johnson will
continue to lead the growth of Unanet's customer base and market
share. Former Chief Sales Officer Gene
Gainey is transitioning to an advisor role, ensuring his
unique industry expertise and strong customer relationships are
maximized.
"Unanet's dedication to making business easy for its customers
through innovative technology and people-focused service gives me
and our sales team an incredible opportunity to help customers
transition from legacy providers to Unanet," said Johnson. "The
talent at Unanet is unparalleled and I'm thrilled to work with this
dynamic team to achieve our goals in the GovCon and AEC
industries."
Unanet's superiority in the GovCon space was evident in Q2 as
Halliday was named one of the most influential leaders in GovCon,
and Customer Magazine selected Unanet's CRM for
GovCon for its prestigious CRM Excellence Award. Unanet's
Customer Support and Human Resources teams also were honored
with prestigious American Business Awards, or "Stevies,"
highlighting the company's commitment to a customer-centric
approach. Also earning recognition from the Northern Virginia
Technology Council in Q2 were Unanet's Chief Financial Officer and
a member of the company's financial team. They were honored by NVTC
as a finalist for CFO of the Year and as a Rising Star in the
industry, respectively.
On the product innovation side, Unanet unveiled a host of
new financial and accounting tools for its ERP customers,
driven by the visionary leadership of the company's new Chief
Innovation Officer Steve Karp. These
modernized, tech-forward tools tap into the power of AI, embedding
the technology into Unanet's award-winning solutions. This enables
users to automate and streamline functions while still giving
customers the specific, tailored insights they need.
Finally, Unanet demonstrated its ongoing investment in
resources to help customers succeed by rolling out the 2024 AEC
Inspire Report. This year's edition is titled "Operating for Today,
Preparing for Tomorrow: What Our Industry Needs to Grow Resilient,
Scalable Businesses" and explores how AEC firms can adopt a
tech-advanced approach to securing success into the future. The
annual report is the industry's most comprehensive body of research
on the strategies and trends top AEC firms are using to stay ahead
of their competitors.
"Businesses in the GovCon and AEC industries must be especially
nimble right now due to rapidly changing competitive and regulatory
pressures, as well as increased customer expectations," continued
Halliday. "Unanet helps them improve efficiency in business
operations, but we also deliver the important human touch to ensure
every solution is working optimally for customers. It's this
customer-centricity that's making the difference and contributing
to Unanet's stellar growth."
