Why move from GP to Dynamics BC with Fundamentals?

For nonprofit customers using Dynamics GP on-premise, transitioning to Dynamics Business Central (BC) with Tangicloud Fundamentals presents a significant opportunity to elevate your organization’s management capabilities. Here’s why moving to the cloud is a strategic step forward:

Future concerns with Dynamics GP On-Premise

• Lack of Support and Updates: With the impending sunset of Dynamics GP, support and updates will dwindle, making it harder to stay compliant with regulatory changes and advancements.
• Limited Functionality: The on-premise system may not offer the sophisticated features needed to keep up with the nonprofit sector's evolving demands.
• High Maintenance and Upgrade Costs: On-premise systems incur high costs for hardware maintenance, software updates, and IT support.
• Insufficient Security and Disaster Recovery: On-premise solutions often lack robust security measures and disaster recovery options, risking financial data safety.

Causes of These Issues

• Outdated Technology: The reliance on outdated technology limits the organization's ability to adapt and scale.
• Regulatory Compliance: Keeping up with complex and changing regulations is difficult without timely updates and support.
