CODA SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
Software Development Services from specialist CODA Developers
The LEVEL8 Software team are genuine specialists in the technical development of Unit4 Financials by Coda (CODA) software. The CODA financial platform has a well-earned reputation as a robust and functionality rich accounting software package for mid-tier to enterprise businesses. As with any software package though, a well-judged development tweak, functionality addition or system integration can supercharge the solution for supporting your specific business processes.
LEVEL8’s CODA developers have decades of experience with the software in all of its guises over the decades right up to the current Unit4 Financials by Coda package. Our team have an intimate understanding of the system architecture and processes. They’ve seen plenty of water under the bridge which means many of the challenges your business could be facing are likely issues they’ve encountered previously and can advise on from a well informed position.
If you have a Unit4 Financials by Coda development project then there are plenty of reasons to get in touch with Level8.

The value of expert CODA Development
Well designed and executed CODA software development projects allow businesses to build on an already powerful solution to make it do exactly what they need. Development of CODA takes strong foundations and creates a system that fits a business’s specific processes and procedures.
Working with experienced solution experts also means Unit4 Financials by Coda software development projects can double as a business process refinement exercise. Our clients tap in to the LEVEL8 team’s expertise during the development project specification stage and potentially help to refine your processes as an additional benefit.
Our CODA Software Development Credentials
LEVEL8 as a business was established by a team of business systems experts with a background in the CODA software (now known as Unit4 Financials by Coda) platform. Our people have an unrivalled 200 years combined experience in delivering CODA solutions successfully.
The LEVEL8 Software division is headed up by Director of Software Development and Integration, Dan Barton, who ran the UK development operations for Unit4 Financials from the Unit4 offices in Nottingham for many years. Dan and his team have a hard-earned reputation as an authority in CODA software development.
We believe the LEVEL8 CODA software development approach is simple but involves project stages too often neglected by other developers. Firstly, and most importantly, we listen to our clients, working with them to review and agree requirements before producing a detailed project specification.
We understand that software development is not just about system and coding knowledge, it’s about delivering against customer requirements and expectations. Ultimately, that’s the LEVEL8 Software goal.

The CODA software development experts
Our people bring unrivalled experience and heritage in CODA development and LEVEL8 Software is led by some of the best known faces in the Unit4 Financials by Coda engineering and development world.
Dan Barton
Director of Software Development & Integration
Dan began his career as part of the graduate intake for British Rail computing in 1989 and worked in Nottingham until 1994.
In 1994 he became employee number 25 at Science Systems where he was a developer and later team leader.
With the Science Systems takeover of CODA, Dan moved in to the role of Development Manager of the Bespoke software department within the new CODA (and later Unit4 Financials) organisation.
In 2015, after a few years as an independent Unit4 Financials developer, Dan joined LEVEL8 to establish a software division for bespoke Unit4 Financials by Coda solutions delivery, offering software development services unrivalled in the market.


Dave Anstey
Director of Business Development & Partner Relations
Dave joined LEVEL8 following 24 years at the highest levels of the software engineering function within Coda – six years as Development Manager and 16 years as Engineering Director.
Prior to his time at Coda/Unit4, Dave was Technical Director at SquareSum. In total he has more than 40 years working in software under his belt and brings unrivalled experience to our leadership team – everyone in the Coda world knows Dave and his reputation as an authority in the field.
LEVEL8 were delighted that Dave chose to step into a non-executive director role (over a number of other approaches that he had following retirement from Unit4) and his positive impact has been felt across the business since.
