See how we create secure and compliant software

Visma has over 2.1M customers around Europe and Latin America that rely on us and our technology. We create market-leading, smart and secure software that is deeply embedded in the daily operations of our customers, equipping them with the solutions they require most to meet their goals, making Visma an indispensable partner for long-term success.

Highest security standards

To reach the highest security standards, we have developed the Visma Application Security Program (VASP) and Visma Cloud Delivery Model (VCDM).
‍
By continuously improving these unique frameworks, we ensure that we deliver cloud software that is secure, reliable, performant, and responsive to customer needs.

Smart software for versatile users

User centricity

Our user’s needs and limitations are the sole focus throughout the whole development phase. We're dedicated to making our products easy to use and are constantly refining, improving, and launching best-in-class software that redefine efficiency for SMBs and local governments. 

Customer needs drive every innovation and we measure our success with the Customer Effort Score (CES) and the Product Net Promoter Score (pNPS).

Connectability

We create local ecosystems around our products in Europe with seamless connections and modern APIs. We want every transaction and all data flows between our products and partners to be frictionless and automatic.

Smart technology

We want to build excellence in transforming modern technology, such as AI and machine learning, into usable products. For efficiency, we invest in what happens under the hood. This way, our customers get better experiences through speed and performance and can spend more time delivering value.

Visma’s engineering culture

We have one of the largest tech and design communities in Europe – all sharing the same start-up mentality. Our entrepreneurial, people-first and decentralised culture enables us to work together closely with our customers to deliver world-class software, making sure that our solutions are hyperlocal, compliant, and trusted.

Thrive with technology

Our biggest ambition is to turn modern technology into great software. Our decentralised structure encourages experimentation across our tech stacks allowing us to constantly scan the latest advancements and explore the benefits that we can deliver to create an impact for our customers.

Embrace the design

We make technology relevant by adapting it to people's needs. We work based on real customer and user insights. With the help of our design system and process, we strive to empower teams to focus on the right things.

Culture of learning

Even the best entrepreneurs and leaders don't always know what will work best. The key is that they can acknowledge when they don’t know and are open to learning. At Visma, we invest in a culture of generosity and encourage bold experimentation and  a creative mindset to enable founders and teams to innovate, build, and lead.

Engineering practices at Visma

With high capabilities in engineering, we can provide constantly improving, secure and quickly loading software for our customers around Europe and LatAm.

Deliver improvements fast

We invest in engineering performance to improve our products quickly and often. Our continuous delivery model enables innovation and allows us to be agile. Testing, deployment, infrastructure automation, and many other areas are scaled near perfection to improve our users' daily work with our products. With our ~16,400-strong talent ecosystem, Visma is constantly refining, improving, and launching best-in-class software that redefines efficiency.

Organising for scalability and better decisions

With the DevOps approach and practices, we aim for cross-functional autonomous teams with end-to-end responsibility. Teams with full and exclusive ownership of their code and infrastructure can react to user feedback, market needs, and other events very quickly.

Taking advantage of enabling technologies

The public cloud enables us to improve delivery and avoid dependencies. With the public cloud, we have more automation possibilities, which make it easier for a team or organization to manage their work.

“It’s this unique combination of having the right tools and the right people”
