The Distributor’s IT Risk: What an Aging ERP Really Costs the Team Holding It Together
If you’re the person who keeps your company’s legacy ERP running, you already know where the risk lands. You maintain the custom integrations nobody else understands, keep patching a platform that’s running out of support, and know the system only works because one or two people remember how it was built. None of it fails all at once, so the decision keeps getting pushed back while the exposure grows. Ransomware shows up in 88% of small and mid-sized business breaches, and about 20% of IT budgets now go to managing technical debt. Support for NAV, AX, and eventually GP is ending too.
This white paper covers six ways an aging ERP puts risk on IT and matches each one to the Dynamics 365 capability that addresses it. It also covers how to choose between Business Central and Finance & Supply Chain Management, and how peer distributors moved without shutting down. The common theme is that you keep the control that matters and hand off the maintenance that was never a good use of your team’s time.
