Bellevue Microsoft Gold Certified Consulting Company
Microsoft Dynamics GP Upgrade and Customization Consultants
Dynamics GP, previously branded Great Plains, has a lengthier history than virtually any other ERP platform written for Windows. Dynamics GP is a proven, full-featured application and is one of the most widely used ERP platforms for SMBs, with about 50,000 active customers globally. A number of organizations who have depended on Dynamics GP for years have been able to defer upgrades and maintenance long enough that they now find themselves using seriously out-of-date software and rickety network infrastructure. This can be risky. Meanwhile, a common theme we hear from new clients is that they have trouble finding veteran Microsoft Dynamics GP consultants who can provide guidance on how to update their Dynamics GP system affordably and derive the most benefit out of the application.
The longer a business tries to limp along with outdated versions of Microsoft Dynamics GP, the more challenging the migration process becomes. When server hardware or storage systems break down, there may be no suitable hardware on the market to replace them. When editions of Microsoft Windows Server that run Dynamics GP arrive at end-of-support status, vital security updates stop being developed. The latest releases of SQL Server might not work with your special GP customizations. Innovative products such as Power BI may not run. Organizations investigating an upgrade of their Microsoft Dynamics GP deployment are often overwhelmed by the number of pieces involved in the puzzle. And the cost suggested for an upgrade may seem astronomical.
