Why upgrade to the latest Microsoft Dynamics GP

1. You may be on an older version and need to upgrade as your current version of Microsoft Dynamics GP may be ending mainstream support.  Endeavour will still support your and your Business Applications, but Microsoft or your 3rd party add-ons may be ending their support.  Being off support presents risks associated with security, bug fixes and compatibility concerns.
2. You may be seeking to be Cloud-hosted with new cloud productivity functions available in the latest version of Microsoft Dynamics GP 18.5, Oct 2022 (GP 2023).  If you are on Microsoft Dynamics GP the new Dynamics 365 Business Central ERP platform may be of interest to you.  Moving from GP to Business Central is a net new implementation with specialized tools.  There is not simple migration path.  Endeavour also offers private GP Cloud hosting in Canada for hosting GP in the cloud.
3. New features and functions to support increased end-user productivity may pose a strong business case for upgrading.  Dynamics GP (2021) is a mature product and has an annual release schedule including new user requested functions and a roadmap past 2024.

Dynamics GP 18.2 was made available on October 7, 2019. The official naming convention follows the same “modern life cycle approach as Windows 10” with the naming for “GP Next” officially being called "Microsoft Dynamics GP". For simplicity purposes, we’ll refer to it as Dynamics GP 2020. As part of this modern life cycle, Microsoft has committed to an annual release each October extending past 2024 along with two additional tax-update releases each year for mid-year and year-end Payroll etc. This is a GREAT testament to the Power, Longevity and Confidence that both Endeavour and Microsoft have in the Microsoft Dynamics GP ERP platform.
