DYNAMICS 365 LEGACY UPGRADES

Upgrade from Dynamics Legacy On-Premise to Dynamics 365 Cloud in Dubai & Abu Dhabi, UAE

Are you still using Microsoft Dynamics On-Premise legacy software products in your organization? If the answer is yes, it might be time for an upgrade. Let’s examine some of the most common Microsoft legacy products, determine when you should upgrade, and offer tips to help make the transition easier.

As a Microsoft Gold Partner in Dubai, UAE; Burhani’s team of expert Dynamics 365 advisors will help you seamlessly upgrade & migrate from your old legacy systems to a more robust and secure Microsoft Dynamics 365 cloud platform.

Tips for Upgrading from Dynamics Legacy to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Cloud in Dubai, UAE

While there will always be work involved in upgrading your legacy product, particularly if it is an older version, there are ways to make the transition as smooth as possible.

GET THE DATA CONVERSION RIGHT

Converting data from one system to another can be challenging due to the different formats. Have a good plan for the conversion, including ways to do mock conversions to ensure everything works properly.

CLEAN UP YOUR DATA

It is best to clean up the data as much as possible on a legacy product before upgrading. You don’t want to clean it up in Excel and then import it to your new application. That is something you would need to do again before you go live, and there often is not enough time for those extra steps.

HAVE A GOOD PLAN

Figure out every step you need to take to move all your data to a new application. Coordinate with every department manager and other executives in your organization. Ensure that everyone knows what will be happening and when, so that they can prepare their staff and do training on the new system.

BACKUP ALL YOUR DATA

Even with a good plan, sometimes unexpected complications can occur. To prevent a disaster, be sure that all the information that will be moved to the new system is backed up.

TEST EVERYTHING BEFORE MOVING FORWARD

Be sure you know how to use the new system before completely shutting down your legacy product. Do some trial runs to ensure that everything works, such as testing that data can be exported smoothly.

How to Choose a Trusted, Experienced & Reliable Dynamics 365 Upgrade Services Partner in Dubai, UAE?

Migration from Dynamics Legacy On-premise to Dynamics 365 online isn’t simple even when your system is equipped with many native import tools. The task of importing data appears to work well for small data volumes and when it involves a single entity.

It is not the case of just transferring the backup file to restore the environment or just clicking a few buttons on the import wizard. When migrations come into the picture, you require expertise that you probably might not possess.

All these involves critical business and technical stakeholders from the customer side to make sure that the Dynamics upgradation partner strategy and methodologies followed are considering the various risks as well.

Choose a Microsoft Dynamics partner in Dubai who has extensive experience in Microsoft Dynamics 365 solutions. Experienced Microsoft Dynamics 365 experts will provide you with expert advice and support on smoothly upgrading & migrating your legacy Dynamics system to the scalable Dynamics365 cloud.

Why Upgrade from Dynamics AX to Dynamics 365 with Burhani

Is your business still relying on the legacy Dynamics AX solution? Well, you will be aware that mainstream support for all versions of Dynamics AX has ended and only the R3 version has an extended support until January 10, 2023.

What does this mean? For starters, Microsoft has stopped investing in the solution to add new features and functionality. This means you will no longer get security updates and hot fixes unless you are on the R3 version. This also means that the only support your team has is through Microsoft’s self-service knowledge base and support websites.

By continuing to run your systems on legacy software, your business is at risk.

That is why businesses across the globe are migrating to Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations. Apart from avoiding the risk, there are many advantages of upgrading your systems to a cloud-ready solution.
