Find out in this report how the two ERP solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like that all of the student information is in one place."
"It is a stable solution."
"One developer is enough to maintain the solution. Microsoft 365 is changing technology. The product is a user-friendly ERP solution."
"It is easy to use, and it works very well for small-scale companies."
"Has good integration with Power BI."
"We use Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central as CRM."
"It's quite reliable, and there's a good local provider who can adapt the solution for tax issues."
"The most important feature of Microsoft Dynamics NAV is that it lets us centralize all our information so that we don't need to rely on any other software outside of Microsoft."
"The most valuable features of Business Central for me are its seamless integration with Power BI and the ability to create customized reports."
"The functionality for monitoring satisfactory academic progress has room for improvement."
"The tool needs to work on reporting issues and user interface."
"Any request that had come from the website had to go through an e-form which was then plugged into Microsoft Dynamics NAV. There was no direct data capture. That was the pain point, where clients had to build e-forms, and that caused delays in transactions and getting information."
"As our company grew we had to switch from Microsoft Dynamics NAV to a solution that was suited for larger-sized companies."
"The configuration packages can be somewhat tiresome at times, and they can be slow when loading data."
"In the next release, I would like to see a quality check module - Navision doesn't have one, and the industry very much requires it."
"It could be more stable."
"If Microsoft made some of the security setups a little easier to work with, that would be a significant improvement. The warehouse management features could also use some work. We had to buy third-party software to make NAV's warehouse management and security more usable and functional."
"The Power BI integration could be more seamless."
