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."
"Flexibility is the best feature. Because we have the source code, we can develop our ideas. It enables us to develop new functions."
"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 stability is very good."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics AX is customization."
"The performance is good."
"The product is easier to use and has more efficient workflow management features than other vendors."
"The functionality for monitoring satisfactory academic progress has room for improvement."
"The older version of Microsoft Dynamics AX that we are using is not as scalable as the newer version."
"This solution could be improved with more expert resources and an easier implementation process."
"Microsoft could provide more flexible hardware requirements that can scale with the volume of data being processed rather than providing only a minimum requirement."
"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 improvement in procurement planning. It also needs to include a production scheduling feature."
"The support here in Turkey could be better. However, the international support is good."
"The initial setup can be complex at times and has room for improvement."
"There are so many errors."
