What are the benefits of a move to Business Central?

Eliminate Costly Version Upgrades with Evergreen Updates

Business Central does away with the need for major version upgrades. Instead, you receive automatic, biannual updates that keep your system current, secure, and feature-rich without the downtime and expense associated with traditional upgrade cycles.

Unlock more value from your Microsoft investment

Business Central offers deep, native integration with Microsoft 365, Teams, Power BI, and Power Automate. These connections allow you to streamline communication, automate manual tasks, and gain real-time insight using the tools your team already knows.

Move from customizations to modern extensions

Older NAV systems rely on direct custom code, which complicates upgrades and system performance. Business Central uses a modern extensions-based approach that allows you to tailor your system while keeping the core product intact. This makes upgrades smoother and reduces long-term technical debt.

Improve decision-making with real-time data and AI

Business Central delivers real-time dashboards, built-in reporting tools, and AI-powered forecasting features. These capabilities help you understand your financial position, monitor performance, and make informed decisions without relying on external systems.

Gain anywhere access with true cloud deployment

Business Central is designed for today’s flexible work environments. Your team can securely access the system from any device, in any location, using only a web browser. There’s no need for VPNs, remote desktop connections, or complex IT setups.

Prepare for the future with a scalable, modern platform

As your business grows or evolves, Business Central grows with you. Its flexible architecture supports multi-entity, multi-currency, and high-volume operations, allowing you to scale confidently and adopt new business models when you’re ready.
