What is the Point of AXIO Core Financials with Dynamics 365 for Operations?

At first glance, it just doesn’t make sense that SBS Group (or anyone for that matter) would create a third-party solution to enhance financial management for one of the world’s most noted financial management solutions.  I’ve had several potential clients ask about this and my answer is always the same:  It is about helping our customers realize business value faster.

When a business invests in technology, they expect tangible results.  Whether they’re aspiring to enhance operational performance, improve the customer experience or capitalize on new opportunities, the goal is to provide genuine business value in the least amount of time.  The days of waiting for smart technologists to reverse engineer generalized solutions to the needs of individual companies over the course of months and years has been put to pasture by the advent of cloud computing.

We’ve implemented ERP solutions for thousands of companies and have learned a thing or two about the kind of configurations, enhancements and customizations that different types of buyers will need.  We put that knowledge to use with every engagement, and in the case of AXIO Core Financials, we start well in advance of the engagement.

After all, Microsoft did their part. They created Dynamics 365 for Operations which is arguably the most robust ERP platform on the market today.   It is an extremely flexible, scalable Cloud ERP platform that takes advantage of the entire Microsoft Office and server stack.  It is up to our team to bend, balance and bedazzle the solution so that it operates as if it were created exclusively for each customer…and to do it quickly and efficiently.
