Arlington Microsoft Certified Consultants
Microsoft Dynamics GP Migration and Customization Consulting Services
Microsoft Dynamics GP, previously called Great Plains, sports a longer heritage than virtually any other enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform written for Windows. Dynamics GP is a mature, full-featured product and is one of the most popular ERP systems for small and mid-size businesses, with around 50,000 active customers globally. A number of organizations who have relied on Dynamics GP for years have managed to defer upgrades and maintenance long enough that they are now using seriously out-of-date software and outmoded network infrastructure. This can be dangerous. Meanwhile, a recurring complaint we hear from new customers is that they have trouble finding veteran Microsoft Dynamics GP experts to partner with for in-depth knowledge about how to update their Dynamics GP system affordably and extract the most business value from the software.
The more an organization tries to make do with outdated versions of Dynamics GP, the more challenging the migration procedure becomes. When physical host servers or disk systems fail, there may be no suitable devices on the market to use as substitutes. When releases of Microsoft Windows Server that run Dynamics GP reach end-of-support status, critical security patches stop being developed. The latest releases of SQL Server may not work with your special GP customizations. Next-generation tools like Microsoft's Power BI may not run. Organizations investigating an update of their Dynamics GP deployment are often intimidated by the volume of components involved in the puzzle. And the cost quoted for an upgrade may seem through the roof.
