Impact #1	The immediate result of the switch was not having to hire new employees to re-key data, saving the company two full-time salaries.
Impact #2	Dynamics GP’s easy connect-ability means it syncs well with other systems, including their CRM tools.
Impact #3	The “live” nature of Dynamics GP means all data entered in to one system automatically populates to the others, meaning recent sales are automatically deducted from inventory, eliminating costly inventory management problems.
