Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution offers integrations with other software as well. We have integration with Microsoft Office where we can do Word and Excel, etc.""It is strong in integration.""I haven't used it a lot, but the best thing is that the processes are very detailed.""The most valuable feature is financial control. The accounting aspect allows us to manage our clients and payments.""The most valuable feature is the ability to easily update and maintain accurate data across all aspects of our operations.""The system is easy to customize and has user-friendly access. ​""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.""The solution is easy to use and not complicated. Also, it is easy to get trained on. Also, there is good information available on the web. The GP community is quite broad and there are many blogs online."

Cons
"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.""The purchase order and processing aspects of the solution should be improved.""It still can be improved in web-based and build reporting. ​""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.""This is now a legacy product, so they're phasing it out over time.""Initially, we encountered challenges, particularly with users transitioning from their previous applications.""With payroll, the payroll that they have offers US or Canadian tax. However, here, our tax payments are different from the US and Canada. It is very difficult to put in our tax tables. We need some customization. It should be readily available for any country to use according to their tax implications. The system should know different types of tax regimes around the world so that it can accommodate. It's a little bit rigid on that.""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."

"We're definitely looking at a new system because everything in this product needs improving.""The vendor stopped supporting the solution on the Linux platform."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Its pricing and licensing are high. Of course, we all know that it is Microsoft."
  • "​We evaluated some local products, because of the pricing, but this product has better features and support."
  • "For us, in our local currency, it costs us around 5 million Botswanan Pulas a year. It's quite a lot of money."
  • "The solution's price is steep."
  • "I think the tool is competitively priced and it's more of a one-time investment with a low annual renewal fee."
  • "I would say that the pricing is moderate, not cheap, and not expensive. There are many more expensive ERPs than GP, and there are less expensive as well, so it is moderately priced."
  • "In comparison to other ERP systems, the pricing is not necessarily inexpensive, but it can be considered more cost-effective."
  • "It is an affordable solution."
