Bristol Microsoft Certified Support and Consulting
Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains) Migration and Enhancement Consulting Experts
Microsoft Dynamics GP, previously called Great Plains, has a lengthier heritage than almost any other enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution made for Windows. Microsoft Dynamics GP is a proven, full-featured application and is one of the most widely used ERP platforms for small and mid-size businesses, with about 50,000 active installations worldwide. A number of organizations who have depended on Dynamics GP for years or decades have been able to defer upgrades and maintenance to the point that they are now using legacy software and outmoded network infrastructure. This can be risky. Meanwhile, a recurring theme we hear from prospective clients is that they have trouble finding experienced Dynamics GP consultants to partner with for in-depth knowledge about how to upgrade their Dynamics GP environment efficiently and extract the most business value from the software.
The more an organization tries to make do with legacy versions of Microsoft Dynamics GP, the more challenging the migration process becomes. If server hardware or disk systems break down, there could be no equivalent hardware on the market to replace them. When editions of Microsoft Windows Server that run Dynamics GP arrive at end-of-support (EOS) status, critical security updates are no longer released. The latest releases of SQL Server might not be compatible with your special GP customizations. Next-generation products such as Microsoft's Power BI may not run. Organizations investigating an update of their Dynamics GP deployment are often overwhelmed by the number of components involved in the puzzle. And the price tag quoted for an upgrade may seem through the roof.
