In various domains, I've witnessed the utilization of GP. For instance, educational institutions continue to offer GP as an option, and more recently, I've collaborated with many individuals involved in e-commerce businesses. They often operate through their websites or marketplaces like Amazon, and they find GP to be a seamless solution. This is because GP boasts a well-developed integration platform that allows for easy integration of all master data and transaction data. Additionally, individuals engaged in the IT sector also find GP appealing, particularly due to its robust project accounting module. In my experience, these groups of people tend to prefer using GP as their choice of software.

In 2012, I analyzed the market and found that Microsoft Dynamics provides services all over the world. We chose the product based on that criteria. It's been amazing. 

We're using the solution for financial modules, specifically focusing on consolidation, financial configuration, management reporting for warehousing, sales, and some customizations related to the sales module. As an investment company, we configured the sales module to function like stock sales, which allowed us to sell stocks and manage sales processes accordingly.
