Migrating from Microsoft Dynamics GP is more than a system upgrade, it’s a strategic business decision that impacts your operations, financial visibility, and long-term scalability. As Microsoft gradually winds down GP support, the need for a modern ERP platform has never been more urgent.
For organizations considering the next step, Acumatica Cloud ERP offers a flexible, scalable solution built for today’s connected business environment. But a successful Dynamics GP migration requires thoughtful planning across finance, operations, HR, and compliance.
That’s why Crestwood Associates, in partnership with Avalara and ADP, is hosting an exclusive workshop designed to guide GP users through every step of the migration journey.
The Current State of Microsoft Dynamics GP
Dynamics GP has served thousands of businesses well, but its limitations are becoming harder to ignore.
- Microsoft’s Roadmap: Long-term support for GP is narrowing, with updates focused more on fixes than innovation.
- Maintenance Costs: On-premises infrastructure continues to drive up IT spending, while cloud-first competitors lower costs.
- Reporting & Integrations: GP often struggles with real-time visibility, siloed data, and costly integrations.
- Operational Pain Points: Manual processes slow down finance teams, leaving them less agile in fast-changing markets.
If you’re facing these challenges, it may be time to start your Dynamics GP migration strategy and explore what a cloud ERP like Acumatica can offer.

Key Considerations During a Dynamics GP Migration
Migrating from GP to Acumatica isn’t just a technology project it impacts every department. That’s why our workshop brings together three trusted advisors to cover the essentials:
- Crestwood Associates – A clear roadmap for GP-to-Acumatica migration, with proven methodology and real-world client success stories.
- Avalara – Insight into how tax compliance changes in Acumatica, where risk can surface during migration, and how automation reduces audit exposure.
- ADP – Why payroll and HR should never be an afterthought, and how aligning people management with financials ensures efficiency and compliance.
“Many GP clients underestimate the complexity of tax and payroll during migration. Addressing these upfront is what makes a transition truly successful,” says a Crestwood consultant with 15+ years of ERP migration experience.
By combining ERP, tax, and HR expertise, this workshop ensures you leave with a full roadmap not just a software comparison.
