Melbourne Microsoft Premier Consultants
Microsoft Dynamics GP Migration and Customization Consultants
Microsoft Dynamics GP, originally called Great Plains, sports a lengthier heritage than almost any other enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform made for Windows. Dynamics GP is a proven, feature-rich application and is one of the most widely used ERP systems for SMBs, with about 50,000 active installations worldwide. Many businesses who have relied on Dynamics GP for years have managed to defer upgrades and maintenance long enough that they now find themselves running legacy software and rickety network infrastructure. This is dangerous. At the same time, a recurring complaint we hear from prospective customers is that they have trouble finding veteran Microsoft Dynamics GP consultants to partner with for in-depth knowledge about how to upgrade their Dynamics GP environment affordably and get the most business value out of the application.
The more a business tries to limp along with outdated releases of Microsoft Dynamics GP, the more challenging the migration process tends to be. If physical host servers or storage systems fail, there may be no suitable devices on the market to use as substitutes. When editions of Microsoft Windows Server used to host Dynamics GP reach end-of-support (EOS) status, vital security patches stop being released. Current editions of SQL Server might not work with your important GP customizations. Next-generation products such as Power BI may not run. Businesses investigating an update of their Microsoft Dynamics GP deployment are often intimidated by the number of pieces involved in the puzzle. And the cost suggested for an upgrade may seem astronomical.
