Why Microsoft Dynamics® AX2012?

The top 10 reasons to buy Dynamics AX2012

See an overview of AX from Microsoft here:  Microsoft Dynamics AX2012 - Overview

AX Intelligence sees AX as the first ERP software to consider for medium to enterprise-level customers:

  • AX is a modern software system, engineered with new technology, and based on more modern best-practice processes.
  • AX has the look and feel of other Microsoft Office products, so there is an immediate familiarity for users and the interface does not hinder the users from learning how to apply the software to their business.
  • Some customization of an ERP - built for is inevitable unless you work in a textbook company, and AX is designed to make the customization significantly simpler and more efficient than other major ERPs.  This can help reduce a significant risk factor by allowing a more predictable software development cost and duration.
  • AX is an internally integrated suite of applications (see AX Capabilities), which makes inter-operability between related business functions flow together. So, for example, Finance and Inventory Management work hand-in-hand - rather than as separate modules with clumsy links.
  • Microsoft is putting significant investment into Dynamics AX, so it is keeping-up with developments in IT and business trends generally, and Microsoft platform technology in particular.
  • AX has built-in global capabilities - multiple currencies, languages and legal requirements.
  • Integration with other Microsoft products - SQL Server, SharePoint, Microsoft Office, BizTalk etc
