Addison Microsoft Premier Support Services
Dynamics GP (Great Plains) Upgrade and Customization Consulting and Support Services
Dynamics GP, previously called Great Plains, sports a lengthier heritage than almost any other ERP solution made for Windows. Dynamics GP is a proven, feature-rich application and is one of the most widely used ERP systems for small and mid-size businesses, with around 50,000 active customers worldwide. A number of businesses who have relied on Dynamics GP for years or decades have managed to defer upgrades long enough that they are now running legacy software and rickety IT infrastructure. This is dangerous. Meanwhile, a recurring theme we hear from prospective clients is that they have trouble locating experienced Microsoft Dynamics GP consultants to partner with for guidance on how to update their Dynamics GP system efficiently and extract the most business value out of the application.
The more a business tries to limp along with outdated releases of Microsoft Dynamics GP, the more challenging the upgrade process becomes. When physical host servers or storage systems break down, there could be no suitable hardware on the market to replace them. When editions of Windows Server used to host Dynamics GP arrive at end-of-support (EOS) status, vital security patches are no longer developed. Current releases of Microsoft SQL Server may not work with your special GP customizations. Innovative products like Power BI may not run. Businesses considering an upgrade of their Microsoft Dynamics GP environment are often overwhelmed by the number of pieces there are to the puzzle. And the price tag quoted for a migration may seem through the roof.
