Business Central license ≠ Business Central solution
You can buy Business Central licenses in many places – and promises of super-fast setup. But there’s a difference between simply buying licenses and unlocking the program key – and buying a Business Central solution and implementation.
So what should you pay special attention to when choosing a partner to stand by your side as your advisor and sparring partner on the day you need to implement a new Business Central solution?
Does the supplier have the necessary experience and expertise?
One of the most important aspects when choosing your new Business Central Partner is to find a supplier with the necessary experience and expertise. For example, if you have a manufacturing company, we strongly recommend that you choose a supplier with sufficient knowledge and experience of the often complicated processes involved in a manufacturing company.
At Vektus, we have a number of consultants who are particularly strong in solutions for manufacturing, logistics and project companies. Consultants who can work with complicated processes – and who can work with you to find the best and most optimal solutions. Because they have the experience.
Your independence: Does the supplier truly work with standard and vendor independence
Today’s ERP solutions look completely different from the past, when many companies had ERP solutions on their own servers, inextricably linked to specially developed industry software that they were “tied to”.
Today, many ERP solutions are in the cloud, and if you choose a standard Business Central Cloud solution, Microsoft ensures that you are always on the latest version.
Your customizations are now replaced by apps that you can integrate into the standard version of Business Central – without interfering with the core. This places a number of requirements on all the apps you choose to integrate into your Business Central solution.
At Vektus, we only work with supplier independent apps that we have quality assured and checked. This is our best way of ensuring that you don’t get caught out when Microsoft rolls out their updates.
At the same time, choosing supplier independent apps means you have an unprecedented level of independence and flexibility.
When you run standard Business Central and supplier independent apps, you’re really free to choose the vendor you want. There are no strings attached.
We have made it our specialty to find and select the supplier independent apps that have a certain volume, that have an organization behind them and that can be expected to keep up with Microsoft’s updates. In this way, we try to ensure that the app will also be here tomorrow – and that you won’t get stuck.
Does the supplier subsequently provide the support you need
Continuous and fast access to support is important to ensure that the system works optimally – also in everyday life when the system is “just” running, but small challenges arise.
At Vektus, all companies have a dedicated team that knows the company’s solution. You can always call your dedicated consultant – and get help. But the consultant may be visiting customers, on vacation or busy in meetings. That’s why we have established a support function that can quickly take care of many tasks. You therefore have two ways to get support at Vektus. In this way, we try to ensure that you can get on with your work quickly.
If you make sure that the supplier you choose has the right experience, is truly committed to your independence and flexibility, and can provide you with the support you need afterwards, then you’re definitely on the right track.
