Navision/Business Central-My Favourite ERP
Likeliness to Recommend
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
