Atlanta Microsoft Gold Certified Consulting and Support
Dynamics GP Migration and Customization Consultants
Dynamics GP, previously called Great Plains, sports a lengthier track record than almost any other ERP platform made for Windows. Microsoft Dynamics GP is a mature, feature-rich product and is one of the most widely used 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 have been able to postpone upgrades long enough that they are now running legacy software and outmoded network infrastructure. This can be risky. At the same time, a recurring theme we hear from prospective clients is that they have trouble finding experienced Microsoft Dynamics GP consultants to partner with for guidance on how to update their Dynamics GP system efficiently and get the maximum benefit out of the software.
The longer a business tries to limp along with legacy versions of Dynamics GP, the more complex the upgrade procedure tends to be. When physical host servers or disk systems fail, there could be no equivalent devices available to use as substitutes. When releases of Microsoft Windows Server that run Dynamics GP reach end-of-support (EOS) status, vital security updates are no longer released. Current releases of SQL Server might not be compatible with your special GP customizations. Innovative products like Microsoft's Power BI may not run. Organizations investigating an update of their Microsoft Dynamics GP deployment are often overwhelmed by the number of pieces there are to the project. And the cost quoted for an upgrade may seem astronomical.
