Colorado Springs Microsoft Certified Consulting and Support
Dynamics GP Migration and Customization Consulting Services
Dynamics GP, previously branded Great Plains, has a lengthier track record than almost any other ERP platform made for the Windows OS. Dynamics GP is a proven, full-featured product and is one of the most popular ERP platforms for SMBs, with about 50,000 active customers globally. A number of businesses who have relied on Dynamics GP for years or decades have been able to postpone upgrades to the point that they now find themselves running seriously out-of-date software and rickety IT infrastructure. This is dangerous. At the same time, a recurring complaint we hear from prospective customers is that they have trouble finding experienced Dynamics GP experts who can provide guidance on how to update their Dynamics GP system affordably and derive the most benefit out of the application.
The more a business attempts to limp along with outdated releases of Microsoft Dynamics GP, the more complex the upgrade procedure tends to be. If server hardware or disk systems fail, there may be no suitable devices available to replace them. When releases of Microsoft Windows Server that run Dynamics GP reach end-of-support (EOS) status, critical security patches are no longer distributed. The latest releases of Microsoft SQL Server might not work with your important GP customizations. Next-generation tools like Microsoft's Power BI may not be an option. Organizations investigating an update of their Dynamics GP deployment can be intimidated by the volume of pieces there are to the puzzle. And the price tag suggested for a migration may seem astronomical.
