Clearwater Microsoft Certified Consultants
Dynamics GP Upgrade and Customization Consulting Experts
Microsoft Dynamics GP, previously called Great Plains, has a longer heritage than virtually any other enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform made for Windows. Dynamics GP is a proven, feature-rich product and is one of the most widely used ERP platforms for SMBs, with about 50,000 active installations globally. A number of businesses who have relied on Dynamics GP for years or decades have managed to postpone upgrades to the point that they are now running seriously out-of-date software and rickety network infrastructure. This is dangerous. At the same time, a recurring complaint we hear from new clients is that they have a hard time finding experienced Microsoft Dynamics GP experts to partner with for guidance on how to upgrade their Dynamics GP environment efficiently and derive the maximum benefit out of the application.
The longer a business attempts to make do with legacy versions of Dynamics GP, the more complex the migration procedure becomes. When server hardware or storage systems fail, there could be no equivalent hardware on the market to use as substitutes. When versions of Windows Server used to host Dynamics GP reach end-of-support (EOS) status, critical security updates are no longer developed. The latest releases of SQL Server may not work with your special GP customizations. Innovative tools like Power BI may not be an option. Organizations considering an update of their Microsoft Dynamics GP deployment can be intimidated by the volume of pieces involved in the puzzle. And the price tag suggested for a migration may seem astronomical.
