Unlike many VAR’s, ASC is not tied to a single Microsoft Dynamics ERP package. Rather, we provide in-depth understanding of all four Microsoft packages and their associated 3rd party solutions, These are called Independent Software Vendor or ISV products. Certified by Microsoft, they are often essential for ERP success.

Whereas Microsoft's four products have similar features (see below) ASC eliminates the confusion associated with evaluating these Dynamics ERP. ASC is expert at matching the optimum Dynamics product with the customer's requirements.

The following is a valuable comparison of Microsoft’s ERP offerings. Key differentiators regarding product positioning, functionality, price, architectural design and (the customer’s proclivity for) customization are described.

Informative links are provided for brochures & data sheets, product details & industries served, and numerous demonstrations. A comprehensive ISV overview, cross referenced to the four Dynamics products -- and listing numerous applications and markets -- is also included.

Microsoft Dynamics CRM

Microsoft Dynamics CRM is a customer relationship management (CRM) solution that is 100% integrated with Microsoft Outlook. It delivers an affordable solution with modules for sales, sales management, marketing, and customer service. CRM provides the tools needed to solicit and maintain a clear picture of customers -- from first contact through to sales and on-going support.

The scopes of Microsoft’s four ERP packages overlap. For example, all packages serve small, moderate and enterprise sized companies. All include feature suites/modules for financials, distribution, manufacturing, service/maintenance and job/project/engineering services applications. All use the SQL database and SQL Reporting Services, and all utilize Microsoft Office, infrastructure and internet technologies. Furthermore, the various Dynamics products are complemented by different ISV products that offer similar (i.e. competitive) features.

ASC quickly differentiates and clarifies the various Dynamics/ISV options for its customers, translates those alternatives into cost/benefit and user acceptance terms, and thereby provides unbiased analysis and advise for its customers. We put Good Ideas to Work.
