Chatsworth Microsoft Premier Advisor
Microsoft Dynamics GP Migration and Enhancement Consultants
Dynamics GP, originally called Great Plains, has a lengthier history than almost any other enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution written for the Windows OS. Microsoft Dynamics GP is a mature, feature-rich application and is one of the most popular ERP platforms for small and mid-size businesses, with about 50,000 active installations globally. Many businesses who have relied on Dynamics GP for years or decades have been able to postpone upgrades long enough that they are now using legacy software and outmoded IT infrastructure. This is risky. Meanwhile, a common complaint we hear from new customers is that they have trouble locating experienced Microsoft Dynamics GP experts to partner with for in-depth knowledge about how to update their Dynamics GP environment efficiently and extract the maximum business value from the application.
The longer an organization attempts to make do with legacy versions of Dynamics GP, the more challenging the migration procedure becomes. If physical host servers or storage systems fail, there may be no equivalent devices on the market to use as substitutes. When versions of Windows Server that run Dynamics GP reach end-of-support (EOS) status, vital security updates stop being developed. The latest releases of Microsoft SQL Server might not be compatible with your special GP customizations. Next-generation tools such as Microsoft's Power BI may not run. Organizations considering an upgrade of their Dynamics GP environment can be intimidated by the volume of pieces involved in the project. And the price tag suggested for a migration may be through the roof.
