Growth shouldn’t mean more complexity.

As advice firms grow, maintaining consistency across advice, operations and compliance becomes more challenging.

Using multiple systems can mean duplicated work, information sitting in different places and more effort to maintain oversight and evidence good outcomes.

9 in 10

67%
re-enter the same client data often or very often
7%

Our vision for Defaqto Unity

Building the foundation for the next decade of advice.

About Defaqto Unity

What is Defaqto Unity?

Defaqto Unity is our vision for bringing together specialist tools across the advice journey on a shared foundation, creating a more connected experience for firms and advisers over time.

Which products are part of Defaqto Unity?

The Defaqto Unity proposition currently includes Engage, MICAP, VouchedFor and Elevation, with Quality & Compliance coming soon.

Do the products within Defaqto Unity already work together?

Each product works on its own today. Over time, we’re building a shared data foundation so information can flow more easily between them and support a more connected experience.

Already use one of our products?

Will the product I already use change?

No. The features and workflows you use remain the same. Your product now sits within the wider Defaqto Unity proposition.

Why does the sign-in page look different?

Some Defaqto products are moving to a new secure Defaqto sign-in. If your product is included in the rollout, you may notice a different sign-in page or web address. Your product itself is not changing.

What should I do if I can’t sign in?

If you’re having trouble signing in, use the password reset option on the sign-in page first. If that doesn’t resolve the issue, contact customer service for help.
