Microsoft Dynamics AX

Cloud versus on-premise: Microsoft has been heavily investing in cloud technology and moved the Dynamics products to the cloud years ago. The main difference between Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Dynamics AX is that Dynamics 365 is a cloud-based solution, accessible via a browser, while Dynamics AX is a desktop app primarily managed on-premise. This means AX is hosted locally on physical servers rather than in the cloud. Today, the cloud is everywhere in the modern workplace, which makes sense as it avoids costly investments in hardware, server rooms, local networks, management, and maintenance like with an on-premise solution.

Flexibility and mobility: With Dynamics 365, you have real-time data access anytime, anywhere. This modern, mobile experience ensures your team is always connected. Since Dynamics 365 runs in the cloud, it offers unmatched flexibility: you can easily enable or disable functionalities and seamlessly integrate with other Microsoft services like Office 365, BI, and CRM.

Look and feel: Dynamics AX feels like an outdated financial system. Microsoft Dynamics 365, on the other hand, is intuitive and user-friendly, fully focused on your user experience. You can completely tailor the design, such as color schemes and homepages, to meet your preferences.

Customization and reporting: Dynamics 365 allows you to fully customize workflows and reports to fit your unique business needs.

Regular updates: With Dynamics 365, you always have access to continuous updates and improvements without needing major migrations. Twice a year, Microsoft releases a major update, known as release waves, introducing all new features and improvements. We even present these updates to our clients in a bite-sized webinar!
