Intuit Enterprise Suite vs Microsoft Dynamics GP

The questions you're actually asking

Staying on GP

logo: blue, quote: navy

GP still works. Why move at all?

You don’t have to move today. Microsoft will support Dynamics GP through December 31, 2029, with security updates and patches available until April 30, 2031.⁴ But an ERP move takes planning. Third-party analyses cite 9–18 months from the decision to migrate through go-live.³ Starting early gives you time to compare your options and choose what fits.

“We tried out Microsoft Dynamics for about one month, decided that it was going to take us about 10 times longer and be 10 times more expensive, so we pulled the plug and implemented six entities very quickly across the Intuit Enterprise Suite platform.”*

<cite> Emily Most, VP of Finance and Administration, Certified Industrial Partners*

The Microsoft option

Isn’t Business Central the obvious next step?

It may be for some companies. Microsoft recommends Dynamics 365 Business Central as the migration path from GP. It makes sense for organizations invested in Azure, Microsoft 365 or Power Platform. But moving to Business Central is a new implementation.³ That gives you a reason to consider Intuit Enterprise Suite if your priorities are multi-company financial management and consolidation.

“Our financial reporting is synced and seamless between companies so it all looks the same. It helps me in presenting financials to the ownership on what to look for, what to call out, what to show them.”*

What happens to customizations

logo: navy, quote: light blue

Can a cloud platform really replace 20 years of GP customization?

That depends on what your business relies on today. Start with an inventory of your GP customizations, integrations, and vertical ISV add-ons. Identify what your next system needs to support. Then evaluate Intuit Enterprise Suite and other options against that list.

"Intuit Enterprise Suite has allowed us to close our fiscal year end at least 3 months faster than previous years. For a company of our size, having that data sorted and finalized by January is a massive win for our tax planning and strategy."*

Frequently asked questions

When does Microsoft end support for Dynamics GP?
Microsoft will end Dynamics GP product enhancements, regulatory, updates and technical support on December 31, 2029. Security updates and patches, if needed, will remain available until April 30, 2031.
Can I still buy Dynamics GP?
Not as a new customer. Microsoft ended new perpetual license sales to new customers on April 1, 2025 and new subscription license sales on April 1, 2026.
Do I have to move to Business Central?
No. Microsoft recommends Dynamics 365 Business Central as the migration path from Dynamics GP, but it isn’t your only option. This is a good time to evaluate which platform best fits your business.
Is moving to Business Central an upgrade or a migration?
It’s a new implementation, not an in-place upgrade. Moving from Dynamics GP to Business Central means moving to a new system with new workflows and training.
How long does a GP migration take?
Timing varies by business and migration complexity. Third-party analyses cite 9–18 months from the decision to migrate through go-live (third-party analyses, 2026), so it makes sense to start evaluating options early.
Can Intuit Enterprise Suite handle multi-company consolidation like GP?
Yes. Intuit Enterprise Suite supports multi-company financial management, with consolidation, intercompany accounting, and reporting across entities in one platform.
What happens to my GP data?
Your data migration will depend on what you need to bring into the new system, including historical data, customizations, and integrations. An Intuit migration specialist will work with you to manage your migration and onboarding.
