Aurora Microsoft Certified Support Services
Dynamics GP (Great Plains) Upgrade and Enhancement Consulting Experts
Dynamics GP, originally called Great Plains, sports a longer track record than almost any other enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform made for Windows. Microsoft Dynamics GP is a proven, feature-rich product and is one of the most widely used ERP systems 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 defer upgrades and maintenance long enough that they now find themselves running legacy software and outmoded IT infrastructure. This can be dangerous. At the same time, a common theme we hear from prospective clients is that they have trouble locating experienced Dynamics GP experts to partner with for in-depth knowledge about how to upgrade their Dynamics GP ecosystem efficiently and extract the maximum benefit from the application.
The longer a business tries to make do with outdated releases of Dynamics GP, the more complex the upgrade procedure becomes. If server hardware or disk systems fail, there could be no equivalent devices on the market to replace them. When editions of Microsoft Windows Server that run Dynamics GP reach end-of-support (EOS) status, critical security patches stop being distributed. Current editions of Microsoft SQL Server may not work with your important GP customizations. Innovative tools such as Power BI may not be an option. Businesses investigating an upgrade of their Dynamics GP environment can be intimidated by the number of pieces involved in the project. And the price tag suggested for a migration may be astronomical.
