7 reasons why you should move to Dynamics 365 Business Central?
Reap the benefits of this all-in-one Cloud solution that will revolutionise how you manage your finances, operations, sales and customer service.
Dynamics 365 Business Central is an all-in-one cloud solution that revolutionises how you do business. It provides a single solution for managing your finances, operations, sales and customer service. It also integrates with other Microsoft Cloud services including Microsoft 365 and Power BI.
Why it’s time to move to Dynamics 365 Business Central
1. Seamless integration
Business Central is an all-in-one business management tool that connects sales, service, finance, and operations. Information can flow between all these functions for more efficient working. Moreover, as part of the Microsoft family, it connects seamlessly with other Microsoft products, including a deep integration with Outlook. This means you can complete Business Central related activities without leaving Outlook.
By connecting Outlook and Business Central, actions related to any contacts are processed in both systems. This limits fragmented information and ensures everyone sees up to date information, enabling more efficient working.
2. Effective automation
Business Central has built-in intelligence to save you time and enable you to monitor patterns and changes in your business. Business Central notifies you of actions you may want to consider for tasks you are currently completing. It also allows you to automate repeatable business tasks. This makes ordering, selling, invoicing, and reporting easier and faster, improving productivity and efficiency.
3. Advanced reporting
Power BI connects directly to Business Central, providing you with real-time reporting. It allows you to create your own reports and dashboards, around areas such as sales, receivables and purchasing. Displaying this data in a visual format means your employees can interpret it more easily and make better, informed decisions. It also improves customer experiences.
4. Better Insights
Dimensions is a great tool that is available in Microsoft Dynamics Business Central. It is used to group or categorise data to make it easier to organise and analyse. The benefit of this in reporting is that you are able to “slice and dice” your data as your company needs. This increases the flexibility of your reporting and saves you time in developing reports by creating specific layouts and views.
5. Cloud-based solution
Dynamics 365 Business Central is a Cloud solution that is accessed through a web browser. This means it is accessible anywhere, anytime. Whether you have employees working outside the office, at home or on the road, they can access the system with an internet connection. This flexibility means employees have the latest, up-to-date information for more efficient working. It also eliminates the need for a server, thereby reducing your maintenance costs.
6. Compliance
Business Central is built on a platform that ensures compliance with regulatory legislation. It supports GDPR, includes Making Tax Digital functionality/extensions and complies with relevant national and international financial standards.
7. Scalability
Software scalability is important for any business and this is one of Business Central’s real strengths. With a monthly subscription fee, you can easily add or remove users as needed. You can also add additional features and functions as required.
