Microsoft Great Plains Dynamics GP is on the way of Microsoft Dynamics or former Microsoft Project Green advances. Great Plains Dexterity is still a core of fat client workstation plus it defines ODBC Dex database access, requiring such columns as DEX_ROW_ID and business logics dictionary: DYNAMICS.DIC. Lets take a look at technology highlights:
Microsoft Exchange / MS Office. Microsoft Office integration was a strongest advance seen with MS Dynamics GP. Such products as MS Sharepoint should be in the focus in short future
Dexterity. Former Great Plains Dexterity is still on the scenes, take a look at about MS Dynamics GP screen you will see there Dexterity version and Dex service packs info
International Support. Well, MS Office is marketed worldwide, however you should be advised that Microsoft Dynamics GP is marketed and localized for English and partially Spanish speaking countries. Plus it has support in Quebec, Montreal. German, French European, Dutch versions will be phased out and the last supported version will be 9.0
Customization. Dex customization is now supplemented with MS Visual Studio C# and VB .Net development. Crucial role will be played by eConnect and its XML web services interface. Great Plains Integration manager is in process to be rewritten in eConnect, which supposed to resolve former performance complains
Competition. In our opinion it should come from several direction. First of all Microsoft places its project into competitions Microsoft Dynamics GP, AX, NAV, SL plus Microsoft small business accounting are competing with each other with certain restrictions. Talking about GP in our opinion competition will be seen from AX (it should take over large scale and corporate clients, especially in Supply Chain) and MS Small Business Accounting (it will be competing with Small Business Financials, former MS Small Business Manager)
