"It is a tried and tested ERP system which if used correctly, is definitely a very good program for managing all aspects of a business from customer sales, and receivables management, to payable management and finance reporting. So, it's super critical for any mid-sized company."
"There should be the capability for users to enhance the application by using a low-code or no-code product from the Microsoft family."
"Microsoft Dynamics AX could be improved by having more features available. We are going to 365 now, to use all the modules, because we found that there weren't many new things we were able to develop with AX. There were a lot of things that weren't available, so we are moving and integrating other things. The customization of upgrades should also be faster. We would also like to see more security features."
"If I had to add something in the next release, it would probably be a mobile application for a sister application of Dynamics 365; not the ERP but the Dynamics 365 HR solution. It would definitely help if we could have Microsoft or a Microsoft partner introduce a mobile application for it."
"It needs better financials and reporting from the system, not through Excel."
"From a consultant's point of view, I recommend an enhancement in terms of detailed documentation for the products on the website."
"Microsoft Dynamics AX can improve by having a more modern user interface. It should be more modular and dynamic. Additionally, the solution could be easier to connect with APIs with other technologies."
"The UI has room for improvement and can be more user-friendly."
"We do not have access to daily projections."
"This is now a legacy product, so they're phasing it out over time."
"As technology changes, I would say probably in the area of chart up account needs improvement because chart up account is a string. So if they make it more flexible."
"Dynamics GP could be improved in terms of its usability and modernization."
"Initially, we encountered challenges, particularly with users transitioning from their previous applications."
"It still can be improved in web-based and build reporting. "
"With payroll, the payroll that they have offers US or Canadian tax. However, here, our tax payments are different from the US and Canada. It is very difficult to put in our tax tables. We need some customization. It should be readily available for any country to use according to their tax implications. The system should know different types of tax regimes around the world so that it can accommodate. It's a little bit rigid on that."
"It requires a lot of expertise to implement."
"Many of our customers are migrating to the cloud rather than staying on-premises."
