THE STATE OF DYNAMICS GP
The vibes on Dynamics GP have not been good for a couple of years. It has especially been subject to complaints that Microsoft had authorized far too many dealers and that they weren't always that good. The other criticism goes back to the origins at Great Plains, the complaint that too many functions have to be added by third-party products.
I remember seeing Wayne Harding, with toy gun in hand, as part of a software shoot out at the AICPA Tech Conference in Atlanta in 1992, demonstrating GP against other products. Someone noted that GP was a good solution, if you bought a bunch of other packages with it. Tastes are turning towards more complete packages, and whether those tastes are satisfied by packages like SAP Business One, user preferences are increasingly on the side of not having to buy a bunch of companion products to get the software to do what they want it to do.
