You buy an ERP system with the intention of using it for a long time. You want to lay a foundation for growth of your company that will benefit you for many years. The continuity of your company is at stake, so then the continuity of the ERP system and of the ERP vendor are extremely important. That makes choosing ERP software from Microsoft more than logical.
World's most popular ERP software
More than 230,000 companies worldwide rely daily on Microsoft Dynamics ERP software. With five different products, Microsoft offers a suitable solution for every organization. Below is the breakdown of the number of companies per Dynamics product. The figures are from 2015.

The advantage of Microsoft technology
Everyone is familiar with popular Microsoft products such as Word, Excel and Outlook. Almost every organization uses one or more Microsoft applications on a daily basis. By choosing ERP software from Microsoft, you will benefit from seamless integration between your ERP system and your other Microsoft products. This means increased efficiency and ease of use with regard to your documents, reports and e-mail traffic, for example.
Hundreds of Microsoft partners
The Microsoft Partner Network has hundreds of partners who specialize in Microsoft's ERP software. As a result, you are never alone. Your business software can be supported by many partners in many countries.
Of course, not every Microsoft partner is the same. And so is every Microsoft-based ERP solution. Microsoft partners often specialize in one or more industries and offer an excellent solution for precisely those industries. So always choose a partner with experience in your industry and who knows exactly what challenges your type of organization faces.
