Austin Microsoft Gold Certified Consulting
Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains) Upgrade and Enhancement Consulting Experts
Microsoft Dynamics GP, previously branded Great Plains, sports a longer heritage than virtually any other ERP platform written for the Windows OS. Dynamics GP is a mature, full-featured application and is one of the most widely used ERP platforms for SMBs, with around 50,000 active customers worldwide. Many organizations who have relied on Dynamics GP for years or decades have managed to postpone upgrades and maintenance long enough that they now find themselves running legacy software and outmoded network infrastructure. This is risky. Meanwhile, a common complaint we hear from prospective clients is that they have trouble finding experienced Dynamics GP consultants who can provide guidance on how to upgrade their Dynamics GP ecosystem efficiently and extract the maximum benefit out of the software.
The longer a business attempts to limp along with outdated versions of Dynamics GP, the more complex the migration procedure becomes. When server hardware or disk systems break down, there may be no equivalent devices on the market to replace them. When editions of Microsoft Windows Server that run Dynamics GP reach end-of-support (EOS) status, vital security updates are no longer developed. Current releases of Microsoft SQL Server might not work with your special GP customizations. Next-generation tools like Power BI may not be an option. Organizations considering an upgrade of their Microsoft Dynamics GP environment are often intimidated by the number of components there are to the puzzle. And the cost suggested for a migration may seem through the roof.
