Alpharetta Microsoft Gold Certified Support and Consulting
Dynamics GP (Great Plains) Migration and Customization Consulting Experts
Dynamics GP, originally branded Great Plains, sports a longer heritage than almost any other enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform made for the Windows OS. Dynamics GP is a mature, feature-rich application and is one of the most popular ERP systems for small and mid-size businesses, with about 50,000 active customers globally. Many businesses who have relied on Dynamics GP for years or decades have been able to defer upgrades and maintenance long enough that they now find themselves running legacy software and rickety IT infrastructure. This can be dangerous. At the same time, a recurring theme we hear from prospective customers is that they have trouble locating experienced Microsoft Dynamics GP consultants to partner with for in-depth knowledge about how to update their Dynamics GP environment affordably and get the maximum business value out of the software.
The longer a business tries to make do with outdated versions of Microsoft Dynamics GP, the more challenging the migration process tends to be. If server hardware or storage systems break down, there could be no suitable hardware on the market to replace them. When editions of Windows Server that run Dynamics GP reach end-of-support (EOS) status, vital security updates are no longer released. The latest editions of SQL Server might not be compatible with your important GP customizations. Innovative tools such as Microsoft's Power BI may not run. Businesses investigating an upgrade of their Microsoft Dynamics GP environment can be intimidated by the number of components there are to the puzzle. And the cost suggested for a migration may seem astronomical.
