Denver Microsoft Premier Consulting and Support
Dynamics GP (Great Plains) Upgrade and Customization Consulting and Support Services
Dynamics GP, originally branded Great Plains, has a longer history than virtually any other enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform written for Windows. Dynamics GP is a proven, feature-rich product and is one of the most widely used ERP platforms for SMBs, with around 50,000 active installations worldwide. A number of businesses who have depended on Dynamics GP for years or decades have been able to postpone upgrades and maintenance to the point that they are now running legacy software and rickety IT infrastructure. This can be risky. At the same time, a common complaint we hear from new customers is that they have a hard time locating veteran Microsoft Dynamics GP experts who can provide in-depth knowledge about how to update their Dynamics GP environment affordably and extract the maximum business value from the application.
The more a business tries to limp along with legacy releases of Microsoft Dynamics GP, the more complex the migration procedure tends to be. When physical host servers or disk systems fail, there could be no suitable devices on the market to use as substitutes. When versions of Microsoft Windows Server used to host Dynamics GP reach end-of-support (EOS) status, critical security updates stop being released. The latest editions of Microsoft SQL Server might not work with your special GP customizations. Next-generation products like Power BI may not be an option. Organizations investigating an upgrade of their Dynamics GP deployment are often intimidated by the volume of components involved in the puzzle. And the price tag suggested for an upgrade may seem astronomical.
