Boise Microsoft Gold Certified Consulting Experts
Dynamics GP (Great Plains) Upgrade and Customization Consulting and Support Services
Dynamics GP, previously branded Great Plains, sports a longer track record than almost any other enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution made for the Windows OS. Dynamics GP is a mature, full-featured application and is one of the most popular ERP systems for small and mid-size businesses, with about 50,000 active installations globally. A number of organizations who have relied on Dynamics GP for years or decades have been able to postpone upgrades and maintenance long enough that they now find themselves using seriously out-of-date software and rickety network infrastructure. This can be dangerous. Meanwhile, a recurring theme we hear from prospective customers is that they have trouble finding experienced Microsoft Dynamics GP consultants who can provide guidance on how to update their Dynamics GP system affordably and extract the maximum business value out of the software.
The longer an organization tries to limp along with outdated releases of Dynamics GP, the more challenging the migration procedure tends to be. If server hardware or storage systems break down, there could be no equivalent devices available to use as substitutes. When releases of Windows Server that run Dynamics GP arrive at end-of-support (EOS) status, critical security updates stop being distributed. The latest releases of Microsoft SQL Server may not work with your special GP customizations. Innovative tools such as Microsoft's Power BI may not be an option. Businesses considering an update of their Dynamics GP environment can be overwhelmed by the number of pieces involved in the puzzle. And the price tag quoted for a migration may seem astronomical.
