"Microsoft Dynamics NAV's most valuable feature is the integration with other Microsoft solutions."
"Microsoft Dynamic 365 has everything we need, like Teams, Outlook, Excel, etc. I do a lot of data visualization, so I work a lot with Power BI. I bring in tables from Oracle and use Power Bi to manipulate and visualize the data. I handle all the stats and track everything that goes in and out of the company. We use all the modules, but I work primarily with Power BI, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Teams. They are all equally important and work together."

"The solution's event management can be improved."
"There is room for improvement in terms of compatibility."
"I wouldn't say that Microsoft Dynamics is very scalable."
"The solution is not best suited for larger-scale businesses."

"The product should improve work optimization."
"For a big company like us with millions of transactions, the scalability isn't enough."
