You probably know that it’s smart to see a doctor at least once a year to stay on top of your physical health. You probably also know that you should take your car in for regularly scheduled maintenance to keep it running well. But did you know that your Dynamics GP solution could benefit from a check-up, too?
Whether you’re looking to get more value out of Dynamics GP or considering a move to the Cloud or a migration to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, a Dynamics GP Health Check can help you make good, data-driven decisions about your next steps.
The Enavate Dynamics GP Health Check will:
Just as a blood test is a tool for doctors to get a complete picture of the inner workings of their patient, Enavate’s GP Health Check starts with running a diagnostic on your Dynamics GP environment with our GP Assessment Tool.
Enavate’s GP Assessment Tool is designed to help you analyze your GP solution and determine the status of your technology ecosystem. It also helps you identify key considerations for moving to the Cloud or to Business Central before you migrate, if that’s your goal. The tool is a framework or roadmap, helping you understand where you are and where you can go.
The tool analyzes your GP SQL server, looking at higher-level metadata and mining it to understand the modules, features, vendors and processes you use. It also analyzes additional products you’ve installed, such as ISV add-ons, so they’re taken into consideration. It looks at what the entire business solution looks like for you.
The assessment tool is free, and the process can be done in less than five minutes. The tool requires someone who has read access to the SQL database run it from a desktop, without the need for a server. It also can run while you have people in your GP system, so you don’t have to halt any operations or work.
We would be remiss not to discuss data security when using this tool. Data is a company’s number one asset and we prioritize data security above all else. When using this tool, your data is fully encrypted to prevent the possibility of a security breach. Additionally, you have full anonymity while utilizing this tool on our servers. No one sees the final report, including Enavate, unless you want them to.
Once you’ve run the tool you will receive a report alerting you to any inefficiencies your system has in place. Or, if desired, a map of your best migration path to the Cloud or to Dynamics 365 Business Central, so you can determine how best to navigate your journey with GP.
Knowing your GP health status is like taking the pulse of your business. It tells you where your system is in the current business climate. A complete drill-down of your data will also enlighten you as to process inefficiencies, highlighting where you can streamline data for both your business and software migration.
