The research shows the benefits of moving to Business Central

Posted June 05, 2025

If you are looking for evidence of the bottom-line benefits of Business Central, a recent research study found Business Central customers are increasing productivity, reducing costs, and improving their access to new market opportunities.

In its 2022 study, Nucleus Research found that users of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central enhanced productivity, reduced operational costs, and improved business agility.

Nucleus interviewed Business Central users to learn more about the benefits their organizations were seeing with their recent move to Business Central. Nucleus reported “benefits such as a 12 percent increase in project handling productivity, savings of up to $15 per invoice, up to 12 hours a month in saved time per user, and penetration of new markets four times faster.”

Organizations running Business Central achieved:

• Increased business agility. “Implementing Business Central enables an improved ability to respond to the market, pursue new business lines, and adopt new processes. Organizations consolidate much of their day-to-day operations under Business Central, which improves visibility and communication across departments as employees share a singular data view.”
  
  
• Greater productivity. “By automating data flows and consolidating cross-departmental processes, Business Central reduces time spent managing multiple connectors and eliminates data entry. One customer reported a 12 percent increase in project handling speed due to reduced downtime from streamlined update cycles, reduced technical issues, real-time notifications, and ease of use.”
  
  
• Reduced operational costs. “By implementing Business Central, customers can retire legacy software and upkeep costs. Through increased no-code accessibility for non-technical employees, customers avoided hiring additional developers.”
