Upgrades

You have an ERP system in place—great. Now what? Once implemented, your ERP will deliver results based on the effort you invest. But beyond that, your system can deliver even more by keeping it up to date. Microsoft invests millions of dollars each year in improvements to Dynamics 365 Business Central. Those improvements span technical performance, security, and new business functionality. In short, upgrades provide real, incremental value to your deployment—so it makes sense to stay current on release levels.

Plan

  • Review current version, customizations, and integrations to map the upgrade path
  • Identify breaking changes, extension readiness, and required test coverage
  • Build a timeline that minimizes downtime and aligns with business calendars

Upgrade

  • Execute technical upgrade/migration (extensions, data, environments)
  • Validate core processes and critical integrations in a controlled test cycle
  • Manage cutover, user communications, and go‑live support

Optimize

  • Turn on relevant new features and retire workarounds or custom code
  • Tune performance, security, and permissions based on the new release
  • Provide targeted user training to accelerate adoption and ROI

What is an Upgrade?

An upgrade moves your environment to a newer release so you can leverage the latest features, performance gains, and security hardening—without disrupting how your teams work. Another type of upgrade is a migration from Microsoft NAV to Microsoft D365 Business Central, giving you the modern cloud platform and continuous update cadence that NAV can’t natively provide.

Benefits You Can Expect

Upgrading your ERP isn’t just about staying current. It’s about unlocking the ongoing value Microsoft delivers with every release.

  • New capabilities that streamline work and reduce manual steps
  • Improved performance and security from platform and service updates
  • Lower long‑term cost by staying closer to performance standards
