Microsoft Dynamics GP, originally called Great Plains, has a lengthier history than almost any other enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform made for Windows. Dynamics GP is a mature, feature-rich application and is one of the most widely used ERP systems for small and mid-size businesses, with about 50,000 active installations worldwide. Many organizations who have relied on Dynamics GP for years have managed to defer upgrades and maintenance long enough that they now find themselves using seriously out-of-date software and outmoded IT infrastructure. This can be dangerous. At the same time, a recurring complaint we hear from prospective customers is that they have trouble finding veteran Dynamics GP experts who can provide in-depth knowledge about how to upgrade their Dynamics GP environment efficiently and derive the most benefit out of the software.
The more a business attempts to limp along with outdated versions of Dynamics GP, the more challenging the migration procedure becomes. When server hardware or storage systems break down, there may be no equivalent devices on the market to replace them. When releases of Microsoft Windows Server used to host Dynamics GP arrive at end-of-support status, critical security patches are no longer developed. Current editions of SQL Server may not be compatible with your special GP customizations. Next-generation products like Power BI may not be an option. Businesses investigating an upgrade of their Dynamics GP deployment are often overwhelmed by the number of pieces there are to the puzzle. And the cost suggested for a migration may seem astronomical.
