Bakersfield Microsoft Premier Consulting Experts
Dynamics GP Upgrade and Enhancement Consultants
Dynamics GP, previously branded Great Plains, has a lengthier history than almost any other ERP platform written for Windows. Microsoft Dynamics GP is a mature, full-featured application and is one of the most widely used ERP platforms for small and mid-size businesses, with around 50,000 active installations globally. A number of organizations who have depended on Dynamics GP for years or decades have been able to defer upgrades and maintenance long enough that they are now running seriously out-of-date software and outmoded IT infrastructure. This is risky. Meanwhile, a common complaint we hear from new clients is that they have trouble locating veteran Dynamics GP experts to partner with for guidance on how to update their Dynamics GP ecosystem affordably and extract the maximum benefit from the software.
The more an organization attempts to limp along with legacy releases of Dynamics GP, the more complex the upgrade process tends to be. When server hardware or storage systems fail, there could be no equivalent devices available to replace them. When editions of Microsoft Windows Server that run Dynamics GP reach end-of-support (EOS) status, vital security updates stop being released. Current releases of Microsoft SQL Server may not work with your special GP customizations. Innovative tools like Microsoft's Power BI may not run. Organizations considering an upgrade of their Microsoft Dynamics GP environment are often intimidated by the number of pieces involved in the project. And the cost quoted for an upgrade may seem astronomical.
