How to Choose the Best Dynamics ERP Solution

Is your company in the market for a new or updated ERP software solution? Perhaps you are considering moving to Microsoft Dynamics ERP. Dynamics has long been a leader in quality ERP software for businesses of all sizes and industries. In fact, Microsoft offers a variety of choices, so you might wonder how you can choose the best functionality for your needs. Here is a quick way to compare Dynamics ERP solutions.

Comparing Microsoft Dynamics ERP Solutions

Western Computer, a trusted Microsoft business applications partner, has created a Product Comparison Page. We show you the significant similarities and differences between Dynamics GP, NAV, 365 Finance & Supply Chain Management, and 365 Business Central. With the chart at hand, you can identify which Dynamics solution best suits your company. Of course, our team of experts is here to help you decide.

Here are some of the questions and characteristics our comparison chart includes:

• Company size 

  The needs of a small to mid-sized company with a single location are vastly different from those of a large business or one with multiple locations. If you do business internationally, you will need specialized functionality. Is your company small or mid-sized but growing rapidly? That is a significant consideration.

• Number of users

  How many current ERP software users does your company have? And what about the future? How many users do you anticipate having five years from now?

• Company structure

  Does your business have a simple structure and a single location? Is it a multi-entity organization with numerous small branches? Does your company operate internationally?

• Industry

  Does your company specialize in projects or professional services, distribution, retail, manufacturing, home building, etc.?

• Manufacturing modes

  If your business is manufacturing, what mode do you employ? Is it discrete, process, engineer-to-order, configure-to-order, lean, mixed-mode?

• Multi-company

  Is there a need for multi-company or intercompany management?

• Service deployment options

  Are you looking for a cloud-based or on-premises deployment? Perhaps you’d prefer a hybrid solution.

• Implementation

  What resources and how much time can you allot for implementation?

• Extensions and development tools

  Will your company need to purchase or develop extensions to meet unique needs?

• BI

  What level of complexity would you like for data analytics and reporting?
