Upgrade from Microsoft Dynamics AX 4.0 to Dynamics 365

Microsoft Dynamics AX 4.0 was first introduced in 2006. AX4 is, therefore, a feature-light application compared to Microsoft’s Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management apps. Almost 15 years of Microsoft R&D for ERP and CRM, Cloud and new great Dynamics 365 ERP modules and workspaces make a comparison difficult.

If your business is running Dynamics AX4 end-of-life, you have likely modified Dynamics AX many times to keep up with important business changes and security updates. Your services, products, and general business have likely changed over time.

With a Dynamics AX4 starting point, a 365 Cloud Migration assessment focuses on business needs, data needs, and potentially core AX4 modifications that represent unique IP to your business.

For most Dynamics AX4 users, the Dynamics 365 Reimplementing approach makes the most sense.
