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."
"There's a moderate amount of scalability available."
"It was an okay solution when we delivered hardware and we had to do maintenance."
"Flexibility is the best feature. Because we have the source code, we can develop our ideas. It enables us to develop new functions."
"Almost all of the features that we use are efficient. Live master planning successfully handles all of our company's requirements."
"The installation is extremely simple, and I have had no problems with it."
"One of the valuable features of the solution is how easy it is to use."
"It is stable, suitable for businesses, and covers all business needs."
"Dynamics AX provides a lot of functionality."
"The functionality for monitoring satisfactory academic progress has room for improvement."
"From a consultant's point of view, I recommend an enhancement in terms of detailed documentation for the products on the website."
"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."
"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."
"The manufacturing module in GP is quite basic, and those who require more advanced manufacturing capabilities often turn to third-party modules or tools."
"This solution could be improved with more expert resources and an easier implementation process."
"Change management could be better."
"There are so many errors."
"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."
