5 reasons for your construction company to make the switch to Business Central
Are you using Dynamics NAV and would like to switch to the latest version of Dynamics 365 Business Central? Or are you not yet sure whether you want to make the switch? In this blog post, we’ll discuss the top five reasons why upgrading to Business Central is definitely worth considering. Business Central is the latest ERP offering from Microsoft. It is specifically designed to integrate all aspects of your business for faster and well-informed decision making.
#1. Run your business from anywhere, on any device
Business Central allows you to access your entire ERP system from anywhere. Accessed exclusively through the all-new Web Client, Business Central can be used at anytime, anywhere and on any device i.e. laptop, phone or tablet with an internet connection. This means you can access your data, complete tasks and make decisions whether you’re in the office, on-site or traveling.
#2. Improved usability
Business Central has the same modern design that you are used to from other Microsoft Office programs. This will quickly familiarise you with the new platform. In addition to the upgrade in look & feel, a number of relevant functional improvements have also been made in this new version.
#3. Integration with Microsoft
Dynamics 365 Business Central integrates with various programs and apps. Although Dynamics NAV already worked with Word and Excel, Business Central integrates with a lot more platforms. For example, integration with Outlook has been greatly improved and integration with Microsoft Teams will be added soon.
“There is also a link with the Microsoft Power Platform. The Microsoft 365 suite of products encompasses all Microsoft’s business systems. The Power Platform provides a common link, known as the Dataverse, enabling the creation of fully integrated and automated processes for your business. The Power Platform combines the data from Business Central, Office 365 and many other information sources via Power Apps and Power Automate into one, linked environment. Thanks to this link, every department within your business can build their own automated processes without the involvement of a developer.”
#4. Available as a SaaS solution
A big advantage of the Business Central platform is that it is available as a SaaS solution. When you work with a Software as a Service solution, you purchase software via the internet as a service from a supplier. The supplier is responsible for the availability and maintenance of the software and systems. By working in the cloud you always have access to your data, you have more flexibility and you don’t need to worry about maintaining your systems and infrastructure yourself. Are you curious whether working in the cloud is something for your company? Read our Cloud vs On-Premise whitepaper to find out.
#5. New functionalities and products
On Business Central you can use various new functionalities and products that are not available in NAV. For example, various improvements that have been made in the areas of procurement, financials, service & maintenance, document management, equipment management and CRM.
