Powerful system that helps our teams keep everything organized

What are the best aspects of this product?

I use Microsoft Dynamics GP with Microsoft Forecaster. I appreciate that the system takes real-time data from the General Ledger. This extraction enables accurate forecasts that help our Bookstore and Accounting units to organize their finances. I love that the web-based interface is intuitive and easy to use.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

GP’s reporting feature needs to be improved. Many users have trouble using this feature and you need to invest some time to learn to use it properly. It was confusing for me initially, but now it is ok. Plus, the interface is old-fashioned and difficult to navigate in the beginning.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

We use GP along with Microsoft Forecaster to predict enrollment numbers and revenue streams each quarter. In the education field, your figures can oscillate wildly without warning. GP helps us to spot trends, be prepared for quarters of low enrollments, and merge the work of different units like the Bookstore and Accounting departments.
