Rising Above the Tree Line with Acumatica

by Jul 23, 2024Acumatica, Dynamics GP0 comments

Meet Summit Ventures. After years of navigating their operations with Dynamics GP, they suddenly found themselves in the business wildernessā€”engulfed by disjointed systems and inefficiencies.

What began as a gradual shift quickly felt like an overnight transformation. Leaving them to question whether their current system could be the reliable guide they needed to help tame their operational complexities and lead them through this uncharted territory.

Holding on to Dynamics GP would mean Summit Ventures must overcome several formidable challenges:

  • Inability to Modernize: Dynamics GP not only relies on Dexterity, an outdated programming language from 1992. It also uses a traditional client-server architecture, which restricts usersā€™ ability to work on the go or across devices.
  • Integration Woes: Dynamics GP and Dynamics CRM require separate databases, complicating data integration and slowing down processes.
  • Limited Opportunities for Improvement: Microsoft has moved on, making only minimal updates to Dynamics GP. Instead, shifting its innovation efforts towards Dynamics 365 Business Central. Despite this newer system being the primary focus, many users still find it lacking in essential features.

Try as they might to keep going, Summit Ventures discovered that continuing to run your business on Dynamics GP is slow and frustrating.

An undertaking that feels much like trying to find your way through a dense forest with only a faded map. Meanwhile, your competitors are speeding ahead, guided by advanced technology that provides real-time data and adaptability.

Rather than risk getting lost or left behind, isnā€™t it time to trade in your old map?

Meet Acumatica. It’s like a GPS system for your business that provides real-time guidance, flexibility, and a clear path to success. It gives you:

 

  • True Cloud Power: Unlike GPā€™s client-server limitations, Acumatica is a true cloud solution. Access everything you need from anywhere, on any device, without additional software. It’s like having a GPS that works seamlessly wherever you are, giving you the most accurate, up-to-date directions.

  • Scalable Growth: Acumatica scales as you grow, charging by the amount of computing power you use rather than headcount. This means you can expand without worrying about escalating licensing fees, allowing everyone in your organization to access the system freely.
  • Maximized ROI: With comprehensive features like payroll, warehouse management, and document management, Acumatica reduces the need for costly third-party add-ons.
