Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Reviews

I primarily use this solution for internal financial accounting.

The most valuable feature is that it's completely stacked with Microsoft solutions like PowerPoint, Excel, and Word. That is the best DNA, which Microsoft offers you while using the solution.

In the next release, I would like to see a quality check module - Navision doesn't have one, and the industry very much requires it.

I've been using Dynamics NAV for the last twelve years.

Dynamics NAV is very scalable.

The initial setup is easy - because it stands on Microsoft offerings, it's simple and intuitive to use.

I would rate the pricing of this solution at three out of five.

From a Navision standpoint, I think Dynamics NAV is very versatile and competitive compared to its competitors. I don't think there's any improvement needed on the Navision side. Microsoft offers a complete end-to-end solution for organizations of all statuses and sizes. I would rate Dynamics NAV nine out of ten.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV is primarily used for professional services, finance, and basic supply chain management. it is not the best for the manufacturing sector.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV is brilliant and it's a different segment when comparing it with Dynamics AX. Dynamics AX is a larger product with much more features and it's aimed at a different segment of the market.

I have found it to be role-oriented. You have different workspace homepages and it's has something for everyone from finance to project management to inventory. Additionally, it has a basic manufacturer sector functionality.

I am hoping there is more integration with other platforms, more features, and customization in the next release.

I have been using Microsoft Dynamics NAV for approximately four years.

The solution is salable.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV is primarily used in small and medium-sized companies.

I have found the support to be good.

The installation is straightforward.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV has a pay-as-you-use payment model.

For people who want to start using Microsoft Dynamics Business Central, it's a far easier system to use than any other competing ERPs in the segments because it's very easy to configure. It's easily available and installation is simple.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Microsoft Dynamics NAV a nine out of ten.

We are into pension funds administration. Our core function involves onboarding of clients, management pension funds and remittance of client pensions when they meet the criteria set out for disbursement. The management process of pension funds involves collection of clients monthly pension contributions and investing the asset to generate additional value for our clients and this is where MS Navision comes into the picture.

We essentially use MS Navision as our backend ERP system being used in managing all the records and potential costumer requests. However, we use a different system in managing our investment booking process.  

Invariably, there is a handshake between our MS NAV system and investment solution which helps to create the unitization process and generation of fund price.

It helps to automate the management and processing of clients funds

One of the reasons why NAV was best suited for us was the fact that it was customizable. All the functions aren't off-the-shelf. 

The initial setup is pretty straightforward.

We're actively looking at migrating to Business Central by the end of the year. This is due to the fact that support for the solution would have ended. MS Business Central is Microsoft's replacement to MS NAV which would reached it's end of life this year.

It would be nice if the integration process was much easier.

I don't see any reason why Microsoft can't use a standard Microsoft development environment  to develop it. It makes it hard for my development team to create additional module using another development language C/side

We've been using NAV for more than 10 years. We even upgraded from the 2015 to 2017 model. We have been using the product for a very long time at this point.

The solution is quite stable. We have no complaints. there are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. it's reliable.

The product is quite scalable. If a company wants to expand it, it can do so.

Technical support has been good over the time. However, Microsoft is ending support in June of this year, which is why we need to move away from the product.

There are two things to keep in mind with the initial setup. The installation is different from customization. Installing NAV is pretty easy, however, as a customer, we have to get a Microsoft partner to help us build the models that we want to have on it, which leads to additional costs. That said, in terms of installing it, it's pretty straightforward.

In order to get the solution to suit our environment, it took us six months to deploy the a fully functional solution.

We do need the assistance of a Microsoft partner to help us customize certain models.

There are additional costs involved due to the fact that you need Microsoft partners to help build out specific modules that are not out of the box.

Microsoft is stopping support for NAV this year, which is why we are planning to migrate to Business Central. We expect it to have good technical support and also easy to use. Most  likely, the solution will be similar, so that we don't need a lot of training on the new system before or after migration.

While I would normally recommend the solution to other organizations, the problem right now is that the product is no longer being supported by the OEM. 

I would suggest that organizations planning to move to MS NAV should focus on MS Business central instead.

Overall, I would rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

I use the solution to check inventory as well as many other internal business tasks.

The solution is easy to use, flexible, and customizable.

I have been using the solution for more than five years.

The stability is decent in this solution.

We have approximately 50 people using the solution in my organization.

In Thailand, the support here could be better. The process to get an answer is too long.

The price of the solution is reasonable. You can pay for a license at set intervals. For example, monthly or annually.

If the support was better for this solution I would rate it higher.

I rate Microsoft Dynamics NAV a seven out of ten.

We use Microsoft Dynamics NAV for everything that the software has to offer. Some accounting, financing, a little bit of CRM, order processing, marketing sales, and ERP.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV has helped us reduce the amount of paper used within the organization.

Everything seems to be useful for each production department. We have everything recorded in the database, so our data is much more manageable than before. That's one of the greatest advantages.

Customization and costs could be improved. Customization is a little complex, so we don't do that. We just use the basic features provided there. We also don't have a theme to customize it as it costs a lot.

In terms of what I see from the IT department, it would help if we could create an application within Dynamics NAV itself, like a dashboard, which we could customize ourselves.

It'll also help if they had documentation to help with API programming. I have a hard time finding the documentation about it. We need to drill down through the output and input of the structures they gave us, and I can't find a detailed explanation of the objects and properties.

I've been using Microsoft Dynamics NAV for about seven years.

The stability of Microsoft Dynamics NAV is quite good. I think on a scale from one to ten; I'm going to give it a seven or an eight as it depends on the database.

Scalability depends on the hardware as the software is really simple. Scalability also depends on the database.

Our Microsoft partner here is quite responsive whenever we call them.

At first, the initial setup feels complex, and we have to do some modeling to know how to deploy it. We've been studying it, and it's becoming quite easy compared to SAP.

The first time we tried to buy the newest version, it was expensive.

I would advise potential users to get whatever data is needed to implement this. The partnership should give you whatever you need, according to your experience. 

Just ask what's the requirement and follow the partner's guide. It's already a step-by-step process. It's not going to be very difficult to follow. They will explain what's required of us as the customer and what data we should put there.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Microsoft Dynamics NAV an eight.
