Why Upgrade to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central?

All-in-One Cloud-Based Solution

Historically, businesses were opting for accounting software that’s run on-premise, meaning the software and database is stored on a local server that people within the organisation could access. In recent years however, cloud-computing is becoming an increasingly popular choice. But why, you might ask? Here’s just 5 quick reasons:

  • It’s scalable, so it grows with your business
  • It means your data is accessible wherever you are, whenever you need it – ideal for those employees on-the-go
  • They’re often more cost effective because you don’t need to make an initial investment in servers and data centres, plus the staff to manage them
  • The auditing process is much simpler and with most cloud-based accounting software systems (certainly with Business Central), you can grant accountant access
  • You benefit from automated updates, so no downtime to have the latest and best version of your accounting system

Cloud-based software is one of the many reasons people are opting for sophisticated and easy-to-use ERP and finance systems like Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. The question is then, how do you get it? You’ll need to consider a few key things:

  1. How to deploy Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central across your business
  2. The cost to upgrade or migrate to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
  3. Choosing a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central partner
