With Dynamics having proven to be the right selection back in 2006 and now been the world&#8217;s leading ERP solution, the choice was right for Axsoftware and if seriously looking to replace your ERP solution should be on your shortlist too.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='hr hr-default  '><span class='hr-inner ' ><span class='hr-inner-style'><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '  style='font-size:14px; '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.axsoftware.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Microsoft-Dynam2-300x105.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"105\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1462\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.axsoftware.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Microsoft-Dynam2-300x105.png 300w, https:\/\/www.axsoftware.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Microsoft-Dynam2-768x268.png 768w, https:\/\/www.axsoftware.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Microsoft-Dynam2-1030x360.png 1030w, https:\/\/www.axsoftware.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Microsoft-Dynam2-705x246.png 705w, https:\/\/www.axsoftware.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Microsoft-Dynam2-1210x423.png 1210w, https:\/\/www.axsoftware.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Microsoft-Dynam2-450x157.png 450w, https:\/\/www.axsoftware.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Microsoft-Dynam2.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Based on Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Dynamics 365 is the latest cloud based version of Microsoft\u2019s successful Dynamics AX ERP application. Dynamics 365 is a functionally rich, intuitive and an easy to use modern product. <\/p>\n<p>AX Software started out with the Axapta ERP system that has evolved over various iterations to its current Microsoft Dynamics 365 version which is often referred to as D365 within Microsoft circles.<\/p>\n<p>Back in 2006, we implemented some of the earliest hosted systems in the UK, running on Axapta V3 and some of these sites remain clients today. <\/p>\n<p>Several clients use our consultancy resources in conjunction with their own primary Microsoft partner company, often to supplement the lack of resource or experience these partners may have and often to help conduct independent reviews and audits as to how D365 may be better utilised or implemented.  <\/p>\n<p>Equally Microsoft partners frequently call on our services where they have a shortfall in capability, entrusting us to work on their projects, the relationships we have built up with these partners have in some cases continued for more than 15 years.<\/p>\n<p>AX Software is a part of the Altara group of companies that provide multinational implementation and support capability. <\/p>\n<p>Altara is a global Microsoft Dynamics Gold Certified partner recognized for providing outstanding ERP &#038; CRM implementations and Microsoft expertise. <\/p>\n<p>Our relentless pursuit of customer satisfaction and ability to implement customer specific solutions backed with unparalleled support, places us amongst the top Microsoft Dynamics partners worldwide. With offices on the East and West Coast of the US and Australasia, we are able to offer \u2018follow the sun\u2019, 24 x 7 support for the whole world. www.altara.com<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div class=\"flex_column av_one_third  av-animated-generic left-to-right  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding    \" style='border-radius:0px;
