Huntington Beach Microsoft Premier Support Services
Dynamics GP Migration and Enhancement Consulting Experts
Microsoft Dynamics GP, previously called Great Plains, sports a longer heritage than virtually any other ERP platform made for the Windows OS. Dynamics GP is a mature, full-featured application and is one of the most popular ERP systems for small and mid-size businesses, with about 50,000 active installations globally. A number of organizations who have depended on Dynamics GP for years have managed to defer upgrades to the point that they are now running seriously out-of-date software and rickety IT infrastructure. This is risky. At the same time, a recurring theme we hear from new clients is that they have trouble locating experienced Microsoft Dynamics GP experts to partner with for in-depth knowledge about how to update their Dynamics GP environment affordably and get the maximum business value out of the application.
The longer an organization tries to limp along with legacy versions of Microsoft Dynamics GP, the more complex the migration procedure tends to be. If server hardware or storage systems break down, there may be no equivalent devices available to use as substitutes. When versions of Windows Server that run Dynamics GP reach end-of-support (EOS) status, critical security updates stop being developed. Current releases of SQL Server may not be compatible with your special GP customizations. Innovative products like Power BI may not run. Organizations considering an update of their Dynamics GP environment are often overwhelmed by the volume of components there are to the puzzle. And the cost quoted for a migration may be astronomical.
