How do you start the process of upgrading to Dynamics 365 for Operations and Finance?

Fixed-price assessment

In order to understand your current system and business goals, the first step to upgrading begins with a collaborative fixed-price assessment by the Stoneridge Software team. Your path from either a Dynamics AX 2009 to Dynamics 365 upgrade or a Dynamics AX 2012 to Dynamics 365 upgrade covers these key areas:

  • Infrastructure & licensing preferences
  • Process improvements
  • Customizations & ISVs
  • Reporting needs
  • Integrations
  • Security
  • Data migration efforts

What’s in the Assessment?

Infrastructure preferences

  • Do you want an online or on-premise Dynamics 365 installation?
  • Based on your preferences, what hardware and licensing requirements will be needed?

Process improvements

  • In Dynamics AX 2009 or Dynamics AX 2012 what features and processes do you currently use?
  • Are there certain features you want to take advantage of in Dynamics 365?
  • Do you need or want to restructure any parts of your current implementation?
  • Will you want training on new processes and features?

Customizations & ISVs

  • Are there customizations you no longer use?
  • Do you want to keep all of your ISV products?
  • Are critical ISVs compatible with Dynamics 365?

Integrations

  • What integrations do you currently have?
  • Are those integrations needed in Dynamics 365
  • Do the integrations need to be rebuilt to take advantage of new technologies

Security

  • Is your security structured the way you want it to be for the move into Dynamics 365?
  • Do you want to take advantage of the security roles contained in Dynamics 365?

Data migration efforts

  • What data do you want to move to your Dynamics 365 installation?
  • Is there data that you do not wish to move?
  • Do you use virtual companies in Dynamics AX 2009 or Dynamics AX 2012?

What’s next?

At the completion of the assessment, we’ll have a clear picture of your needs and goals and what needs to take place to move you forward. You’ll receive an executive summary of findings and a bid on the cost to complete the upgrade project.
