Fresno Microsoft Certified Support
Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains) Upgrade and Enhancement Consulting Services
Dynamics GP, originally branded Great Plains, has a lengthier heritage than virtually any other enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution written for Windows. Dynamics GP is a proven, full-featured product and is one of the most popular ERP platforms for SMBs, with around 50,000 active installations worldwide. Many organizations who have relied on Dynamics GP for years have managed to postpone upgrades and maintenance long enough that they now find themselves running legacy software and outmoded IT infrastructure. This is dangerous. At the same time, a common complaint we hear from prospective customers is that they have trouble finding experienced Dynamics GP experts who can provide in-depth knowledge about how to upgrade their Dynamics GP ecosystem efficiently and extract the maximum benefit out of the application.
The longer an organization attempts to make do with outdated versions of Microsoft Dynamics GP, the more complex the upgrade procedure tends to be. When physical host servers or storage systems break down, there could be no suitable devices on the market to use as substitutes. When editions of Windows Server that run Dynamics GP reach end-of-support status, critical security updates are no longer developed. The latest releases of Microsoft SQL Server may not be compatible with your special GP customizations. Innovative tools like Power BI may not be an option. Businesses considering an upgrade of their Dynamics GP environment can be overwhelmed by the number of pieces involved in the project. And the price tag suggested for a migration may seem through the roof.
