Your business has relied on Dynamics GP for years. It’s familiar. It works. You know its ins and outs. But familiarity comes at a cost.GP is fading out. Microsoft is pulling back support. And every year you wait to upgrade from GP, you risk rising costs, IT headaches, and a system that holds your business back.
The real question isn’t just, “Should I switch?” It’s:
“What happens if I don’t?”
Let’s break it down—because sticking with GP might cost you far more than you think.
The Hidden Costs of Waiting to Upgrade from Dynamics GP
At first glance, doing nothing might seem like the easiest choice. But over time, “waiting” becomes the most expensive option. Here’s why:
Rising Costs, Shrinking Value
- Support is vanishing—No new licenses after 2026. No mainstream support after 2029. That means no more security updates, compliance fixes, or software improvements.
- IT costs keep climbing—Keeping GP running means ongoing server maintenance, IT labor, and expensive workarounds to connect with modern systems.
- Customizations become a money pit—Need GP to do more? You’ll need costly, custom-built solutions—because GP wasn’t made for the cloud era.
Your Business Growth Hits a Ceiling
- Scaling gets harder—Growth requires flexible, scalable tech. GP’s aging architecture struggles to flex with you.
- Limited access keeps teams stuck—Today’s businesses need real-time, anywhere access. GP’s desktop-first setup makes that a challenge.
- Innovation grinds to a halt—Microsoft is moving on. GP won’t see new innovations, while cloud ERPs like Acumatica continuously develop.
- Every year you delay your upgrade from GP, the costs rise while the benefits shrink. That’s why businesses are making the move—before GP becomes a liability.
