Colorado Springs Microsoft Certified Consulting Partner
Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains) Migration and Enhancement Consultants
Microsoft Dynamics GP, originally branded Great Plains, sports a lengthier heritage than almost any other ERP platform made for the Windows OS. Microsoft Dynamics GP is a mature, full-featured product and is one of the most popular ERP platforms for SMBs, with around 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GP for years or decades have managed to postpone upgrades to the point that they now find themselves running seriously out-of-date software and outmoded IT infrastructure. This can be risky. At the same time, a common theme we hear from prospective customers is that they have trouble finding experienced Microsoft Dynamics GP experts to partner with for guidance on how to update their Dynamics GP system affordably and get the most benefit from the software.
The longer an organization attempts to limp along with outdated releases of Microsoft Dynamics GP, the more challenging the migration process becomes. If physical host servers or storage systems break down, there could be no suitable devices on the market to use as substitutes. When releases of Windows Server used to host Dynamics GP arrive at end-of-support status, critical security patches are no longer developed. The latest releases of Microsoft SQL Server might not work with your important GP customizations. Innovative tools like Power BI may not be an option. Organizations investigating an update of their Dynamics GP deployment are often intimidated by the number of pieces there are to the project. And the cost suggested for an upgrade may seem astronomical.
