Upgrade to Dynamics 365
The Smarter Way to Move to the Cloud
We have a tendency to resist change. Some view it as an unnecessary inconvenience — but what about a change that can make life more convenient? If chosen thoughtfully and implemented correctly, change can enrich your business and encourage financial growth. Embracing the upgrade to Dynamics 365 will do just that.
You may be wondering “why would I need to upgrade to the cloud if Dynamics AX is working perfectly fine for me?” There is some level of reservation when it comes to software updates, but upgrading your ERP and CRM system to the cloud can have invaluable benefits. Watch the video to learn the advantages our client Copper State Bolt and Nut realized when they made the switch. Read the full customer story.
Copper State Bolt & Nut Co. has been very privileged to have Arbela as our D365 migration and implementation project partner. The Arbela team’s project management and consulting skillsets have demonstrated superior levels of broad MS/AX to subject matter expertise, open-mindedness, willingness, eagerness, availability, commitment, and understanding.

Top Reasons to Upgrade to Dynamics 365
Dynamics AX 2009 & 2012 Mainstream Support Ending Soon
Mainstream support for Dynamics AX 2009 and AX 2012 will end soon. All Microsoft products have a lifecycle that begins when the product is released and ends -- at this time, support is no longer supported. Dynamics AX products are normally supported for 10 years from the release date. If you are currently on Dynamics AX 2009, Dynamics AX 2012, and Dynamics AX 2012 R2, mainstream support period expired in 2018.
One of the main advantages of going to Dynamics 365 is no more implementations -- they're expensive, they're time consuming. This is the last time we ever have to touch an ERP system. We're customers for life.
-- Carl Spackman, VP of Finance, Copper State Bolt & Nut Co.
How Can Arbela Help With Your Upgrade?
Many organizations admit that they had barely begun, let alone considered digital transformation, but there is so much potential for a company if they invest in digital transformation. One of the major hurdles cited for lack of upgrade is the difficulty of implementation, but Dynamics 365 gives you the ability to quickly see results with a minimal learning curve. Companies like Uber, Airbnb, and Netflix have all embraced digital transformation, and their business to consumer reputations have increased.
