I think, collaboration within a conversation, makes things more personal instead of somebody getting flagged by a piece of software saying, “Hey, you got a problem, go fix it.”



00:11 - 00:17
Well, with Unifize, we can collaborate. And I was like, okay, do we try this? What's next? What can we know, what else can be done?



00:17 - 00:21
And Unifize set itself apart for that reason.



00:21 - 00:32
We're not sending emails or whatever we're doing everything inside Unifize smaller groups that can help everybody just concentrate on the issue that need solved.



00:32 - 00:45
To me, it's more personal because you can have one on one conversations, direct messages with Unifize with that individual that needs to address the issue or, it's kind of like a committee, that you don't have to take time for and find a conference room to sit down and discuss.



00:45 - 00:52
You can you know, you can make decisions on the fly within Unifize. 100% accountability on our performance.

But what we've known from what I experience was, is we were able to get there with the system. We still there with the system. The system has what is needed to provide us what we're looking for, because every company, admittedly, is trying to get compliant. If we educate people, if we get people the education that they need and to get over the fear factor, I think 90% of those things can be resolved because most people will go to what they're most familiar with.What I worked with from a different company, but they're not willing to sit down and look at what the demographics are saying. People are into social media now. People are moving fast into fast paced world. But technologies are still antiquated. So there's a disconnect here, right? So while we're moving at a fast pace at home with dragging at work, so why can't we continue that speed while we at work?If your supplier has issues and you're not informed on time, you want to have an alternate supplier in place. If your suppliers are not qualified, you may not know that that needs to happen. And so when you have an integrated system that speaks to itself and is giving you all this data, you literally have the pulse of the organization in your hands as an executive at a money bound access.
