Microsoft has officially announced the end of support for Dynamics GP, with product support ending on September 30, 2029, and security patches continuing until April 30, 2031. If your business relies on Dynamics GP, now is the time to plan for the future. Don't wait until it's too late—start strategizing your next move today.
Plan Your Migration at Your Pace
Migrating from Dynamics GP to a more modern ERP system like Dynamics 365 Business Central (BC) takes thoughtful preparation. With a well-designed project plan tailored to your team, you can ensure a smooth transition that won’t disrupt day-to-day operations. Starting early allows you to capitalize on cost savings and take full advantage of BC’s cutting-edge features, such as Copilot and seamless bi-annual upgrades.
Early planning helps you avoid common issues associated with rushed migrations—like data loss, errors, and extended downtime. A proactive approach ensures you're set up for success.
Why Dynamics 365 Business Central Stands Out
“Dynamics 365 Business Central is Microsoft’s flagship SMB ERP product, optimized to help businesses thrive in a new world of cloud and AI computing.”– Mike Morton, VP of Dynamics 365 Business Central
Business Central brings many advantages over Dynamics GP. From powerful AI features like Copilot to enhanced cloud capabilities, it’s designed to boost efficiency, productivity, and innovation. The sooner you migrate, the faster your organization can enjoy these benefits and stay ahead of the competition.

Risks of Delaying Your Migration
Postponing your migration from Dynamics GP can have serious consequences:
Rising Costs: As the demand for migration services increases, the costs of licensing and implementation will only climb.
Limited Resources: Delaying means competing with 30,000 other GP users for qualified resources, making it harder to find the support you need.
Operational Disruptions: Rushed implementations often lead to major disruptions, causing downtime and errors.
Lagging Behind: Dynamics GP’s manual upgrades are time-consuming and can quickly put you behind your competitors who have moved to a modern ERP.
