Find out what your peers are saying about SAP, Microsoft, Oracle and others in ERP."The stability of the solution is fine."
"The fixed assets, payroll, the data module, and user-friendliness are most valuable."
"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."
"You can track everything from beginning to end quite easily."
"The system is easy to customize and has user-friendly access. "
"The solution offers integrations with other software as well. We have integration with Microsoft Office where we can do Word and Excel, etc."
"We have gained the capability to control and address various issues within the financial module effectively."
"The stability was reliable."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to easily update and maintain accurate data across all aspects of our operations."
"Overall, the solution is very difficult to use and learn. The learning curve is difficult. Also, the GUI and user interface are not intuitive."
"The biggest problem with GP is that it's not cloud based and it doesn't lend itself to subscription licensing. But Microsoft wants everything in the cloud and licensed on a subscription basis.Even tThough GP can be deployed on a cloud server, but basically, it's a Windows based product. It uses the older model and companies purchase the program and pay a 16-18 sixteen- eighteen percent annual renewal fee but Microsoft wants everybody to pay monthly or annual renewal fees on a subscription basis."
"Initially, we encountered challenges, particularly with users transitioning from their previous applications."
"What could be improved is the functionality of Dynamics GP because it requires a lot of development by the programmers and the company in order to integrate into a solution."
"It requires a lot of expertise to implement."
"There should also be extra redundancy when posting to modules. We use different sets of books such as CashBook and CheckBooks therefore if I select the wrong one the solution allows the transaction to just pass without warning."
"As for room for improvement, they have different modules, project and analytical accounting, but it will be good to have that kind of part in the standard package. To have that additional reporting functionality where you can add an attribute or something, which you can report again. So you can analyze the cost by not just natural accounts but also by a project, without having to go through another module edit on top and then the other module edit on top. The more modules you add, sometimes it doesn't work that well. Additionally, it would be easier to have the solution on the cloud. That's our consideration. We are trying to move all our systems to the cloud, and GP is one of them that we are going to move in the next couple of years. I would rate the solution seven or seven point five out of ten."
"This is now a legacy product, so they're phasing it out over time."
"It still can be improved in web-based and build reporting. "
