DYNAMICS AX TO D365 UPGRADES
WHY UPGRADE TO D365FO?
Upgrading from Dynamics AX to Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations is like no other upgrade process. It can be especially daunting for organizations with fewer than 150 users who don’t qualify for a Life Cycle Services dedicated specialist from Microsoft.
While upgrading can be an intimidating process, it will be well worth it to access the newest features and functionality, the updated user experience, integrated business operations, and enhanced business intelligence.
The upgrade process for Microsoft Dynamics AX customers is unique in that it encompasses critical decisions in terms of platform, cost, technology, and functionality.
WHAT IS THE UPGRADE PROCESS?
ANALYSIS → PROPOSAL → COMPLETION → SERVICE
The most accurate methodology for preparing an upgrade proposal is to start with a detailed technical analysis of the AX objects that must be upgraded. Objects come in different categories and not all objects are created equally. These differences apply within and across object categories.
This requires one to have the ability to not only count the number of objects that must be upgraded but also the relative work effort required for each object under consideration. With hundreds of objects to consider on a typical upgrade project we have developed software IP to speed up this process. This provides a more timely and accurate estimates with lower risk.
WHAT’S THE NEXT STEP?
Can you answer “Yes” to any of the following:
- Are you analyzing upgrade options?
- Do you need a second opinion on an upgrade quote?
- Is your current upgrade project experiencing challenges?
- Do you need client-side advisory services or project management?
- Do you need an upgrade quote and project plan?
If you answered “YES!” to even one of these, please reach out to our team. We’ll schedule a conversation to assess your AX to D365 for Finance and Operations project needs.
