Astronaut image

En muchos sentidos, un sistema ERP actúa como una entidad viva que respira dentro de una organización. Estos sistemas requieren un cierto nivel de atención para funcionar con éxito, incluso después de completada la implementación. Aunque muchos consideran que el software ERP es una inversión que merece la pena, no es, ni mucho menos, una solución inmortal. En algún momento, los sistemas obsoletos se convierten en una molestia y deben ser reemplazados, dejando a los proveedores de ERP la opción de seguir apoyando los productos heredados o establecer un plan de “fin de vida” con la esperanza de iniciar la transición de los clientes a la última versión. Cuando llega el momento, muchas empresas están preparadas para el siguiente capítulo. Para otras, la transición puede parecer un sorpresivo desalojo. Recientemente, Microsoft anunció que dejaría de dar soporte a Dynamics Great Plains en 2025. El propio sistema Great Plains es considerado como un gigante en la industria y ha proporcionado una solución ERP y de contabilidad confiable durante décadas. Esta noticia sembró la incertidumbre en muchas pequeñas y medianas empresas. En un esfuerzo por ayudar a las organizaciones a desentrañar este último anuncio de Microsoft, vamos a sumergirnos en la historia de GP, el significado de este anuncio de fin de vida para Microsoft y cómo los clientes actuales de GP pueden plantear su futuro en ERP.

Un système ERP est, par bien des aspects, une entité vivante qui évolue au sein d’une organisation. Pour fonctionner avec succès, ces systèmes requièrent un certain niveau d’attention, même une fois la mise à niveau achevée. Bien que beaucoup considèrent les logiciels ERP comme un investissement rentable, il ne s’agit pas pour autant d’une solution immuable. Il arrive un moment où les systèmes plus anciens deviennent difficiles à gérer et doivent être remplacés. Les fournisseurs d’ERP ont alors le choix entre continuer à proposer leurs anciens produits ou établir un plan de “fin de cycle de vie” dans l’espoir que les clients puissent évoluer vers la version la plus récente.
