Top 10 Reasons to Switch from Dynamics GP Software to Acumatica

 

The shift from long-standing Microsoft ERP software platforms to cloud-based solutions like Acumatica is critical for businesses to stay competitive. This shift is not just about upgrading to new software but about embracing a system that aligns with the future of business technology. Let's delve into the compelling reasons for this transition and how Acumatica stands out as a superior choice for your ERP needs.

  1. Microsoft Dynamics GP Software Is Being Sunsetted

    • Despite Microsoft's repeated delays in setting an end-of-support date for legacy Microsoft Dynamics platforms like Dynamics GP, the discontinuation of this aging technology is inevitable. As Dynamics GP approaches its sunset, businesses are urged to consider proactive migration strategies to avoid the pitfalls of outdated systems. Managing a full-scale migration to a new ERP platform is a significant endeavor, highlighting the urgency for businesses to act swiftly.
  2. Acumatica is a Future-Proof Cloud Platform

    • Acumatica provides a true cloud-based ERP solution, unlike Dynamics GP's client-server model, which incurs additional costs for hosting and maintenance.
  3. Acumatica Offers Native Mobility

    • Access your ERP on the go, enhancing flexibility and productivity.
  4. Open APIs and low-code/no-code customization

    • Adapt and extend your ERP without heavy IT involvement.
  5. Acumatica is Best-in-Class Business and Industry Functionality

    • Businesses benefit from integrated functionalities tailored to specific industries, which Dynamics GP struggles to match due to its slower pace of technological evolution.
    • Key features include:
      • Embedded CRM: Seamlessly integrate customer relationship management.
        Industry-specific solutions: Cater to unique industry needs with specialized functionality.
        Rapid, specialized integrations: Efficient and specialized integrations are made possible through partnerships with Independent Software Vendors (ISVs).
  6. Acumatica is Committed to Ethical Business Practices

    • Ensuring you have control over your data and the flexibility to deploy in public, private, or hybrid cloud environments.
  7. Acumatica Offers User Experience and Adaptability

    • Where Dynamics GP users often face a steep learning curve and outdated interfaces, Acumatica offers a user-friendly, web-based interface that is easily adaptable by all users within an organization, thus encouraging widespread adoption and reducing training costs.
  8. Acumatica is Cost Efficient

    • Acumatica's cloud-native system significantly reduces IT overhead compared to Dynamics GP. There are no hidden costs for hardware, upgrades, or integration, making it a more economical choice in the long run.
