We often find businesses using Microsoft Dynamics NAV but they’re delaying an upgrade due to unanswered questions.
To shed more light on upgrading to Business Central, let’s go through some common misconceptions.
Furthermore, Business Central is always compliant to new legislations such as Brexit, MTD and GDPR, which legacy NAV versions are not.
An upgrade is too risky
We have seen over the past year that it is critical to be flexible, but this is not possible with legacy ERP versions.
All our developments follow the Microsoft Sure Step Methodology to ensure your upgrade goes smoothly. Our experienced teams have completed many upgrade projects and communicate with you closely to understand your challenges and goals.
We complete detailed assessments to ensure your upgrade is planned properly and you have the exact functionality you need. With Business Central, customisations can even be carried over as Extensions!

If you are up to date on your BREP payments, license costs are eliminated when upgrading to Dynamics 365 Business Central. All you need to cover is the cost of implementation, support, and any training that is involved.

It’s normal that users might be daunted by a new interface, so we involve end-users throughout the entire project to ensure they are comfortable with the system before go-live.
ERP deployments are unique for each business, but the cloud is becoming the norm. Security is normally the number 1 concern for those who do not trust moving to the cloud. However, advances in technology have led to many sophisticated methods which encrypt your data and use firewalls to ensure maximum security.
Moving to the cloud used to be very expensive, making it cheaper to purchase and maintain your own in-house servers. Technology has improved since then and with the cloud being such an integral part of the internet, implementing cloud hosting is now much more cost effective.
