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."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics AX is customization."
"From a developer's perspective, the architecture of Dynamics has a well-designed security layer, which prevents coding issues between different layers. This is a significant advantage."
"The most valuable feature for us is the manufacturing module. It addresses our product costing for tuna canning."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics AX is that it fulfills our requirements. We haven't had any issues with performance."
"It is stable, suitable for businesses, and covers all business needs."
"The accounting and inventory management features are valuable."
"This solution's most valuable feature is its workflow for purchase orders and inventory."
"Microsoft Dynamics is very stable."
"The functionality for monitoring satisfactory academic progress has room for improvement."
"I sometimes put in wrong data that needs correction, but I cannot change it or approve it without withdrawing it. It will then take time for me to go back in and edit it."
"The product needs better admin control. There is room for improvement in flexibility, reporting, and dashboards. Artificial intelligence should be incorporated. I have concerns regarding partners, specifically in the implementation and deployment of Microsoft Dynamics."
"Microsoft Dynamics AX can improve system performance and security. The security is basic and needs a lot of improvement."
"The older version of Microsoft Dynamics AX that we are using is not as scalable as the newer version."
"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 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."
"They should include some modules related to solving customer problems or resolving support tickets from our customers — like a help desk for ERPs."
"The database requires a huge CPU and memory resources."
