Find out what your peers are saying about SAP, Microsoft, Oracle and others in ERP."I like that all of the student information is in one place."
"I am impressed with the tool's vendor collaboration. It is also easy to connect with third-party applications."
"The most valuable features of Microsoft Dynamics AX are field services and the vendor collaboration portal. Both of the features are very good."
"It is easy to use, and it has a great UI. It has very well-structured modules. In terms of setup and configuration, they're logically placed, which makes it easy for any user to pick up information and learn more about the system, rather than just be plain key users of that business operating system."
"It has the same UI and is very similar to any other Microsoft product."
"The product's most valuable features are its day-to-day operations, Power BI-driven workspaces, and homepage."
"Support is really good."
"In terms of features, GP offers a wide range of strong capabilities, particularly in the financial module."
"The installation is extremely simple, and I have had no problems with it."
"The functionality for monitoring satisfactory academic progress has room for improvement."
"It needs better financials and reporting from the system, not through Excel."
"The manufacturing module in GP is quite basic, and those who require more advanced manufacturing capabilities often turn to third-party modules or tools."
"The product is standardised across industries so it is not a good fit for all types of sectors."
"Microsoft needs more presence in our region to help with management and maintenance."
"It could be more scalable and stable. It would also be better if the interface were more integrated with the Microsoft ecosystem because 2012 is not really integrated."
"Our version has performance issues so it gets stuck and is slow."
"Change management could be better."
"There should be the capability for users to enhance the application by using a low-code or no-code product from the Microsoft family."
