Microsoft Philippines recently announced the availability of the Smart Move program, an all-in-one Microsoft Dynamics software, hardware and services bundle designed for emerging small enterprises such as trading and distribution companies, which are looking for an efficient and cost-effective business management system.
At more than 50-percent lower than the original cost of implementation, small businesses can avail of the bundle which includes a three-user license pack for Microsoft Dynamics NAV or GP, a server running Windows Small Business Server Premium, and a rapid deployment service pack which can be implemented within 15 to 17 days.
According to Lyn Reyes, Business Lead for Microsoft Dynamics at Microsoft Philippines, Smart Move is aimed at growing businesses that want to deploy a reliable IT system without necessarily making a huge investment. "We understand that there are many small companies who are in need of business management systems but find them too costly. Smart Move aims to give these businesses the technology they need and can easily deploy, at a reasonable price."
Microsoft Dynamics is a line of integrated and adaptable business management solutions that help automate and streamline financial, customer and supply chain processes that enable people to work efficiently and help drive business success.
Under the Smart Move program, Microsoft offers software, hardware and services bundles specifically for Microsoft Dynamics NAV and GP.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV is a business management solution that helps simplify highly specialized business processes in the areas of financial management, manufacturing, business intelligence, sales and marketing, distribution, purchase and payables, and system integration.
Microsoft Dynamics GP, on the other hand, provides complete and scalable financial and operational functionality, such as advanced consolidation, robust business intelligence, rich reporting, forecasting, and budgeting.
Users of Microsoft Dynamics in the Philippines include Rustan Coffee Corporation, Yellow Cab, Diamond Hotel, Dusit Hotel, Belo Medical Group, and Sanyo.
Microsoft Dynamics works like and with familiar Microsoft software. This lessens the learning curve for new users, makes adoption easier and allows people to work more efficiently and productively. For growing businesses that are looking to expand, Microsoft Dynamics proves to be cost-effective as well since the platform is highly scalable.
"Growth is the primary goal of most small organizations. Microsoft Dynamics has the full capacity to scale with growing businesses compared to similar offerings in the market, which would require businesses to deploy a new system every time they need an upgrade. We want our customers to focus on growing their business and not worry about whether their IT systems can keep up. We encourage them to choose the smart move and make worthy investments early on," added Reyes.
The Smart Move program is being implemented with Raffles Solutions for Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Gurango Software for Microsoft Dynamics GP, both Gold Certified Microsoft Partners. Offer is good until December 11, 2009. For more information, interested parties may e-mail dyn_ph@microsoft.com or visit www.microsoft.com/philippines/dynamics/everyonegetsit.
