Best business App on the Market
Comments: Overall I think dynamkcs 365 is a wonderful application and asset to my company
Pros:
Dynamics 365 Business Central is like the perfect business sidekick! It syncs up with your favorite Microsoft apps like Office 365, so everything works together smoothly. Plus, it grows with your business, whether you're just starting out or scaling up, and it’s packed with great tools to manage finances and operations effortlessly.
Cons:
The downside? Customizing it to fit your unique needs might take a developer's touch, which can add some extra cost and complexity if you're looking for a more tailored experience.
good service
Comments: It is crucial to be transparent about the initial learning curve and potential costs associated with implementation and customization. These aspects can be challenging when communicating product value to potential customers, especially small businesses with limited budgets
Pros:
I can say that Dynamics 365 Business Central stands out for several key aspects. What I value most is its seamless integration with the Microsoft ecosystem, which greatly facilitates adoption and use for companies already familiar with tools like Office 365. The flexibility of the platform is another strong point, allowing customizations that adapt to the specific needs of each business
Cons:
Despite its numerous advantages, it has some aspects that could be improved. From my perspective, the initial learning curve can be steep, especially for users unfamiliar with the Microsoft ecosystem. This can make it difficult for our marketing efforts when trying to convince potential customers of its ease of use. Another weak point is cost, which can be prohibitive for small businesses, limiting our target market
DYNAMICS HELPS smoothen your workflow

Organization at its finest
Comments: It’s really great for improving overall workflow and well designed
Pros:
I really like the design, everything is clear and simple yet also well organized
Cons:
Although clean aesthetically a simple redesign could make it look even less cluttered
Thomas Review
Comments: It does what we need it to do, but there are a lot of improvements that could be made.
Pros:
It has all the accounting functions that we need, and does have the availability for consolidated accounting
Cons:
It's not a very user friendly product. There are multiple gaps like requiring me to redesign reports if we add new chart of accounts. You can't run consolidated AR and AP reports. Microsoft needs to give it some attention to make it more competitive as I believe sooner or later we'll switch.
Microsoft Business Central According
Comments: My experience was horrible as partners can deploy the Software but theask you enormous amounts over R200k to set it up. I also found that there is no support in South Africa for the software, you cannot phone quickly and found out how a thing is working. You have to go through the trouble to watch videos or read on Microsoft Learn. I could also not found one accountant who could work in this software for over two years. This was my biggest headache as well as the support on this software.
Pros:
Business Central is a great software with a lot of functionalities. It is the best account ing software in the market..
Cons:
Business Central support is South Africa does not exist. The partners are really useless and see Business Central as a way to make a quick buck. They rip you off and want to charge over R200k. I worked through business central and to set it up should not cost you more than 10k. Another setback is that you don't get accountants in South Africa that know how the software is working. I tried to find accountants for months, and not even one Microsoft partner could refer me to one accountant who knows the software. In South Africa as soon as you put the name Microsoft to a product the Microsoft partners want to Ripp you off? Microsoft business Central licencing is also very expensive and is around R1200 per user. Sage one accounting is very cheap against Business Central and they have quality support. I cannot see a feature for Business Central in South Africa as it is too expensive and basically you don't have any support for it in South Africa.

Dynamics 365 Business Central

Integration with outlook is the best. No more downloading and sending separate emails. I also liked the fact that it comes with a BI tool for reporting, this was a crisis on Dynamics Navision 2009. The price for the product is very reasonable for small and bigger companies.

Difficult to get support from the partners who implemented.
DONT PUT YOUR TEAM THROUGH THIS
Pros:
As some on who has to use this software daily in a client facing role this is the worst product in the world. If you are the product procurement officers and looking for a CRM, you will be hated for years, long after you are gone if you make your co workers use this product. Even making a client card is like puling teeth, the search query for products is ridiculously hard to use.
Cons:
This software makes me want to quit my job because it is so difficult to do any part of the sales process on it. Searching products, making quotes, checking my orders. Also there is no notifications so you dont know when your case has moved along unless you go and physically check it which is also not easy. Once again, if you buy this product you a damning your co workers to years of mental anguish and some might genuinely start hating their job so much that they quit. YOU WERE WARNED.
Not for Case Management
Comments: It was used as case management for the Board of Professional Responsibility. The needs did not match the software functionality.
Pros:
There were some cool features like the filter capabilities. The dashboard was customizable which was nice. You could see what was important to you.
Cons:
I did not like using DMS for case management. It was cumbersome and very touchy. If you clicked anything that was green it would take you to another page. Many times information would have to be input in several places. There is no easy way to view a lot of information at once on your screen using this software. To read an entire case’s history you would have to open numerous other pages.
Best application for ERP in SME
Comments: According my experience I recommend this for small scale and medium scale business entities and not for the large scale entities.
Pros:
This is a kind of ERP software that highly used by the manufacturing organizations. The application is advisable for use the medium scale business entities who are operating in manufacturing, retail, trading and distribution business activities. Though this is recognized as an accounting software, it is having the multiple function platforms such as HR management, project management, sales and marketing and supply chain management. Obtaining the information from the system is easy by the way of generating types of reports.
Cons:
The most important drawback of the application is it is functioning slowly when few windows are open. Therefore, it needs to close the windows again and again when application is getting slow. The managing of the application requires a comprehensive experience and knowledge on it. It takes a long time to enter the data to the system. Users need to be familiar with application when entering data. For an instance, there are more unnecessary fields to be filled.
