Find out what your peers are saying about SAP, Microsoft, Oracle and others in ERP."We have gained the capability to control and address various issues within the financial module effectively."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to easily update and maintain accurate data across all aspects of our operations."
"I haven't used it a lot, but the best thing is that the processes are very detailed."
"You can track everything from beginning to end quite easily."
"It is strong in integration."
"The stability was reliable."
"It is a tried and tested ERP system which if used correctly, is definitely a very good program for managing all aspects of a business from customer sales, and receivables management, to payable management and finance reporting. So, it's super critical for any mid-sized company."
"The most valuable feature is financial control. The accounting aspect allows us to manage our clients and payments."
"The product's self-service capabilities have benefited our organization."
"Unit4 Business World is a reliable product."
"Many of our customers are migrating to the cloud rather than staying on-premises."
"As for room for improvement, they have different modules, project and analytical accounting, but it will be good to have that kind of part in the standard package. To have that additional reporting functionality where you can add an attribute or something, which you can report again. So you can analyze the cost by not just natural accounts but also by a project, without having to go through another module edit on top and then the other module edit on top. The more modules you add, sometimes it doesn't work that well. Additionally, it would be easier to have the solution on the cloud. That's our consideration. We are trying to move all our systems to the cloud, and GP is one of them that we are going to move in the next couple of years. I would rate the solution seven or seven point five out of ten."
"There should also be extra redundancy when posting to modules. We use different sets of books such as CashBook and CheckBooks therefore if I select the wrong one the solution allows the transaction to just pass without warning."
"It requires a lot of expertise to implement."
"The purchase order and processing aspects of the solution should be improved."
"The issue we're encountering is that it's primarily designed for independent installations and not initially structured as a cloud-based solution, which has led to challenges with connectivity."
"With payroll, the payroll that they have offers US or Canadian tax. However, here, our tax payments are different from the US and Canada. It is very difficult to put in our tax tables. We need some customization. It should be readily available for any country to use according to their tax implications. The system should know different types of tax regimes around the world so that it can accommodate. It's a little bit rigid on that."
"Dynamics GP could be improved in terms of its usability and modernization."
"Reporting and analytics features must be improved."
"I would like to see more flexibility in the customization for us to be able to customize it based on the client's requirements."
