Baton Rouge Microsoft Gold Certified Consultants
Microsoft Dynamics GP Upgrade and Enhancement Consulting Experts
Dynamics GP, previously branded Great Plains, sports a longer history than virtually any other ERP platform written for Windows. Microsoft Dynamics GP is a mature, full-featured application and is one of the most popular ERP platforms for SMBs, with about 50,000 active customers globally. A number of organizations who have relied on Dynamics GP for years have managed to postpone upgrades long enough that they are now using seriously out-of-date software and rickety network infrastructure. This can be dangerous. At the same time, a recurring theme we hear from new 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 efficiently and get the most business value out of the application.
The more a business tries to make do with legacy releases of Microsoft Dynamics GP, the more challenging the migration procedure becomes. If server hardware or storage systems fail, there could be no equivalent hardware available to use as substitutes. When releases of Microsoft Windows Server that run Dynamics GP arrive at end-of-support (EOS) status, critical security updates stop being released. The latest editions of Microsoft SQL Server might not be compatible with your special GP customizations. Next-generation tools like Microsoft's Power BI may not be an option. Businesses investigating an upgrade of their Dynamics GP environment are often overwhelmed by the volume of components involved in the project. And the price tag suggested for a migration may seem astronomical.
