With its flexibility and its scalability for small companies, through to larger, mid-enterprise companies, it is a flexible solution that can grow with a growing company over a span of years.

Business Central allows one to assign numerous dimensions to a single transaction, providing a convenient mechanism for financial information analysis in terms of numerous dimensions of a business. With such a feature, one can have in-depth analysis and reporting with no complex chart of accounts, and easier information can be derived about many dimensions of a business's performance. Dimension combination can even allow one to have a predefined mechanism for combining dimensions, and financial management can become easier for numerous departments or even for numerous projects.

The area of concern is performance, and in terms of processing high volumes of information, in fact, particularly for complex queries and high-value transactions, performance and slow performance and even timeouts have been experienced by users. For companies with high volumes of transactions and companies with real-time analysis requirements, it can become a big issue. As much improvement, for instance, in performance in general, performance can become an issue for productivity and for even for user satisfaction, particularly for companies with high-growing volumes of information requirements.

Navision/Business Central-My Favourite ERP

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Dynamics 365 Business Central from other similar products?

One of the major factors we implemented Business Central aka Navison in 2021 was less cost compared to other company ERP products. The ease of implementing the integration within Microsoft ecosystem specifically fulfilment functionality via outlook after order processing. There was a time when it was rated as best ERP for SMB due to it’s centralised data capability, however the evolution is somewhat limited

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Ease of implementation even outside of Microsoft ecosystem. Easy integration capabilities to CRM platform like Salesforce through Jitterbit. Better security features, there are basically only 4 guys who handles administrative activities and they easily control all the activities and objects implementation for 50 people. Business central has to be my favourite ERP for Order to Cash Cycle process.

What do you dislike most about this product?

With passing years the negatives of using this ERP platform have increased within our organisation, specifically from Finance side. There are complaints about Data integrity which leads to wrong statement creation and finance people can’t read what exactly is the position of company. That is why there is a higher chance that we may move back to Netsuite ERP once again.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Best buy for any SMB organisations, the core functionality for implementing Order to Cash cycle totally stands out.

Pros

  • Friendly Negotiation
  • Security Protects
  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
