Technology for society

For a better everyday life

At its core, Visma is a technology company. One area where we can make the greatest impact is through the software solutions we offer our customers.

Software for everyday needs

Our software keeps businesses and governments running. We help plumbers invoice their customers, authorities collect taxes, and kindergartens plan their school year. We are fuelling the organisations directly responsible for the efficient functioning of society.

At the everyday level, our software saves people time and effort on difficult, tedious work tasks. When people are freed from such tasks, they can participate in more meaningful activities. That could be focusing on long-term business goals, such as improving product quality or innovation. It could also be about personal goals, such as wrapping up a work task early in order to spend more time with family and friends.

In either case, people gain the freedom to be more creative, more flexible, and more healthy. Happy and efficient people contribute to a well-functioning economy and society.

Health

Technology to help us meet tomorrow’s health care challenges and give more people the option to live and thrive in their own home.

Example: Assistive technology such as remote health monitoring to enable the elderly to be more self-sufficient at home.

Financial management

The right technology to ensure good corporate governance that reduces risk, simplifies reporting, and benefits all of society.

Example: Software that helps government agencies with budgeting and financing for social programs.

Integration and welfare

Innovative solutions for better processes within the social welfare system and integration of refugees into society.

Example: A digital solution for refugee children to follow their asylum status in Norway in a simple, understandable way.

Education

Technology enabling employees in the school system to spend more time with children and less time on administration.

Example: Solutions that automate the process of placing students in the right schools and class schedules.

Artificial Intelligence for people

For businesses and organisations, Artificial intelligence (AI) takes the idea of freeing up people’s time one step further. At its most basic level, AI automates the mundane and repetitive tasks that pull people’s time away from more important activities. This has a snowball effect on business, enabling leaders to make better decisions, departments to collaborate more effectively, employees to engage in more meaningful work, and customers to have a greater experience.

For society, AI has an equally tangible impact—from solutions that optimise the allocation of kids to kindergartens, to nursing applications that make sure health personnel can reach at-home patients faster. Less stress at work and more time with people are ideas worth building solutions for.

Trustworthy products and services

Sustainability is also about trust, especially when it comes to security and privacy. Our customers, employees, and the law demand that we follow stringent standards of securing and protecting our customers’ data. As the threat of data breaches and other types of cyber crime increases , we continue to prioritise the highest degree of security and privacy for our customers.

For us, transparency is key. We work hard to continually increase security awareness among Visma’s employees and make our product security transparent. We also have several core programs—the Visma Application Security Program (VASP) and Visma Cloud Delivery Model (VCDM)—to ensure the secure delivery of cloud products and services.

Our Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) framework allows us to set up appropriate rules based on mitigating risk. We also get help from external actors to identify bugs through Bug Bounty and Responsible Disclosure.
