Broomfield Microsoft Premier Support

Dynamics GP, originally branded Great Plains, sports a longer heritage than almost any other ERP platform made for the Windows OS. Microsoft Dynamics GP is a proven, full-featured application and is one of the most popular ERP systems for SMBs, with about 50,000 active installations worldwide. A number of businesses who have relied on Dynamics GP for years or decades have managed to postpone upgrades long enough that they are now using legacy software and rickety IT infrastructure. This can be risky. At the same time, a common theme we hear from new customers is that they have a hard time finding veteran Dynamics GP consultants to partner with for in-depth knowledge about how to upgrade their Dynamics GP system efficiently and derive the maximum business value from the software.

The more an organization attempts to make do with legacy versions of Microsoft Dynamics GP, the more challenging the migration process tends to be. If server hardware or storage systems break down, there may be no suitable hardware available to use as substitutes. When editions of Windows Server that run Dynamics GP reach end-of-support (EOS) status, vital security patches are no longer distributed. The latest editions of SQL Server may not work with your important GP customizations. Innovative products such as Microsoft's Power BI may not run. Businesses considering an update of their Microsoft Dynamics GP environment can be overwhelmed by the volume of pieces involved in the project. And the price tag quoted for a migration may seem through the roof.
