Let's find out which NAV version you are on before taking the next step.
Upgrading to Business Central: Are You Being Pressured?
Some Microsoft solution partners are pushing their existing NAV customers towards Business Central upgrades to boost their own revenue. This can be a stressful situation, especially for businesses who opted for cloud-based NAV deployments. Here's why:
Pressure to Migrate or Lose Support
Microsoft partners are increasingly discontinuing support for cloud-hosted NAV environments, including those on Microsoft Azure or third-party hosting providers. This leaves businesses with two unappealing options: upgrade to Business Central or find a new partner willing to support their existing NAV system.
Upgrade Costs Causing Discontent
The upgrade fees quoted by such NAV partners can be substantial, often exceeding £100K. This is causing frustration among NAV users who feel pressured into a costly upgrade they may not be ready for.
Data Control Concerns
Switching to a new partner can be complex, especially if existing partners control your NAV data and charge some fees for its retrieval. This raises security concerns and risks non-compliance with GDPR. Ensuring data security and regulatory compliance is crucial when entrusting your data to a third-party vendor.
Minimize risks while upgrading from NAV to the latest Business Central version
There are several risks associated with upgrading your customized NAV Version, including compatibility issues, potential data loss, operational downtime, cost overruns, and challenges in integrating with other systems. However, with Dynamics Square, you can avoid these hassles.
