The system is slow. Poor performances.

What differentiates Dynamics 365 Business Central from other similar products?

NAV gets slower over time. For example you can slow down in reporting or batching processes and not all the data in the system can be efficiently executed. A poor calculated field in the Flowfields of NAV can cause repercussions in the page. Records also are required to be locked to ensure the consistency of the information. This locking negatively impact on the performance.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

None. It can deliver nice results just if well designed during implementation. Failing in this the system will cause a cascade of problems.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Slow system. You have to have a great coding to adapt the system to the business in an efficient way.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Too complex. They should simplify the system in order to remove unnecessary records when running reports

Pros

Respectful
Client's Interest First
Generous Negotitation

Cons

Less Effective Service
Less Caring
Wastes Time
