Making the decision to change your company's business 
management system is a process that requires research and 
foresight. Here are four reasons why businesses using SAP 
business management software have decided to make the 
switch to Microsoft Dynamics.
1) - Microsoft Dynamics can improve employee productivity. 
In a 2007 analysis that compared the impact of enterprise 
software applications on people's productivity, Microsoft 
Dynamics users on average scored Microsoft Dynamics 18 
percent higher than SAP users scored SAP applications. This 
Microsoft-sponsored study was conducted by Keystone 
Strategy, an independent research firm, and was supervised 
by Dr. Marco Iansiti, the David Sarnoff Professor of 
Business Administration at the Harvard Business School.

2) - Microsoft Dynamics can scale with your business. 
Microsoft Dynamics provides affordable scalability for your 
growing businesses. With benchmarked performance up to 
1,000 users and beyond and rich functionality across 
financials, supply chain management, and customer 
relationship management, you can be confident in the 
ability of Microsoft Dynamics to meet the needs of your 
growing business. Integrate your Microsoft Dynamics 
business management solution with Microsoft SQL Server to 
enjoy enterprise-level reporting, flexible decision-making 
support, and timely, relevant business insight at a low 
cost with significantly high usability and flexibility.
3) - Microsoft Dynamics provides a low cost of ownership. 
Microsoft Dynamics is engineered to cost-effectively 
support the changing requirements that are frequently 
necessary for customers to adapt, grow, and maintain a 
competitive edge in their business. Independent research 
has demonstrated that, on the whole, Microsoft Dynamics 
offers a higher return on investment (ROI) and lower 
overall costs than other major competitive offerings. 
Microsoft Dynamics licensing is designed to be cost-
effective. It is based on concurrent users versus named 
users and has no imposed user minimum or maximum, so it 
evolves with you for the life of your business.
4) - Microsoft offers an industry-leading vertical partner 
ecosystem. Microsoft is in a position to deliver vertical 
solutions to hundreds of different industries on a local 
basis; it can bring these solutions to market on a local 
level. Microsoft's Certified for Microsoft Dynamics program 
offers solutions designed to meet the needs of specific 
industries. It can provide customers with the benefits of a 
rich portfolio of tested, reference supported solutions 
developed by ISVs that have met Microsoft’s highest 
solution and organizational certification standards.
