“The system is helping us drive business ownership of the numbers — finance is no longer the bottleneck.” How a JSE-listed asset manager moved budgeting out of finance and into the business.

“The new system has allowed finance managers to be more strategic.” Africa’s top-ranked university shipped IDU in a fraction of the time anticipated, across 300+ cost centres.

“The ease with which I can see the high-level results — but then also drill down to GL level.” Streamlined budgeting at scale across one of South Africa’s largest insurers.

“The best software investment the university could have made.” Africa’s largest open-distance university runs council-grade audits and 300+ cost-centre planning on IDU.

“IDU eliminated manual collation and gave us a single, reliable source of truth for our budgets.” One of South Africa’s largest insurers consolidated budget data from across the group onto IDU.

“One of IDU’s key differentiators was how cost-effective the system was — so we could roll it out across the entire business.” The QSR chain rolled IDU out across stores, regions, and corporate — accuracy, transparency, and ownership at every level.

“Reporting reduced from months to weeks. Monthly reports at the click of a button.” One of South Africa’s largest grocery retailers compressed its reporting cycle and gave operators direct access to the numbers.

“We’ve run IDU alongside our ERP for twenty years — two system upgrades later, the planning layer never missed a beat.” Two decades of continuous IDU use through two ERP migrations — the same planning layer, never re-platformed.

“IDU reduced the administrative burden on finance so the business can focus on patient care.” A private hospital group shifted budgeting effort off finance and back onto clinical priorities.

“Smarter financial management has transformed how we plan, report and run the business.” The national power utility unified planning and reporting across the organisation on a single governed platform.
