Top 5 Reasons to Upgrade to Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013

This week at Microsoft WPC in Toronto Microsoft announced Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 should be available October 1 2013 and there are a lot of compelling reasons why you should upgrade. Here are the top 5 that I would recommend.

  1. Speed/Speed/Speed – the new posting routines can      increase the speed of posting by up to 90% through better development and      only locking tables when absolutely necessary.
  2. Efficiency – you can queue up posting routines so you      don’t have to wait while a 100 line sales invoice is posting – it can be      queued up and you go back to work. Its posts when it has time!
  3. Dimension space savings – as you may know, currently      when dimensions are used they get stored in a variety of tables. The new      method to stores dimension data in much less tables and saves up to 85% in      space. This also improves analytical capabilities using dimensions.
  4. Web Client – NAV 2012 comes with 3 clients; windows      client, SharePoint client and web client. The web client can be used by a      variety of browsers including Safari. There is zero installation on your      PC to start NAV 2013.
  5. Dashboards – creating dashboard is now super easy – it      can use account schedule to create the graphs and display them on your      Role Center. A new Query feature also for more robust impromptu reporting.

Sounds like Speed, Efficiency, resolved bugs, more user friendly, staying current with mobile technologies
