Why choose Business Central over other ERP solutions?

Business Central is a smart and strategic choice for any small to medium-sized company moving from basic
accounting software or upgrading from another system. In addition to its functionality, accessibility, scalability, and flexibility, it’s supported by Microsoft and therefore seamlessly integrated into the Microsoft stack.

But the decision depends on more than just the software. We recommend you take the time to properly evaluate, identify, and select the best ERP solution for your business. Follow the steps in our ERP Selection Guide to get started.

What are the deployment options for Business Central?
Business Central can technically be deployed online or on-premise. But as a cloud solution built on Microsoft Azure, an on-premise deployment won’t be able to deliver the full functionality and benefits of the true cloud solution.

  • Business Central Essentials $70 per user per month
  • Business Central Premium $100 per user per month

Is it easy to learn to use Business Central?

Business Central has a similar look and feel to the rest of the Microsoft 365 suite, so it will be a familiar environment. It should be generally intuitive for Microsoft users to navigate but, like most ERPs, it is still a complex system. To encourage high user adoption rates, ensuring all users have comprehensive training is essential.

At Clients First, we offer a free Business Central Tutorial and Training Library to help users learn the system and improve their skills. Browse through our extensive collection of Business Central tutorial videos, trainings, and webinars here.
