Dynamics AX 2012
Still running Dynamics AX 2012? You’ve got more options than you think.
Out of support doesn’t have to mean out of road. We help businesses on AX 2012 either stay put safely or move to Dynamics 365 the right way, whichever genuinely fits.
What should you do about Dynamics AX 2012?
Microsoft AX 2012 is out of mainstream support. The usual advice is simple: migrate now.
But simple isn’t always right. For some businesses, AX 2012 still does the job, and moving is a big outlay.
For others, it’s holding them back. The honest answer depends on your business, not the calendar.
We’ll help you work out which route is yours, and we won’t push you down either one to suit us.
The case for staying
Plenty of businesses run AX 2012 perfectly well. If it still does what you need, staying can be the sensible, cost-effective choice. The trick is staying responsibly: current servers, the best available security patching, and proactive monitoring so problems surface before they bite. There’s no fixed cut-off date, only a strategy you keep to.
The case for moving
When you want the things AX 2012 can’t give you: Copilot, AI, modern data tooling, the latest Microsoft functionality, it’s time to move. Moving off AX 2012 is a re-implementation, not an upgrade, which makes it your best opportunity to redesign processes rather than carry old problems into a costlier system.
AX 2012 support
Is AX 2012 still the right platform for you? We won’t tell you to move on from AX if you don’t need to. We’ll make improvements to keep it secure and working as it should. But if AX no longer suits what your business needs, we’ll advise you honestly on better options.
AX 2012 Health Check
Not sure whether to stay or move? A structured review is the quickest way to find out where you stand, where the risk lies and what needs to change.
Our 20-day engagement helps you assess:
- How secure and well-supported is your current AX 2012 environment?
- Are your servers and patching strategy keeping you protected?
- Is your system still aligned to how your business actually operates?
- Is staying still the right call, or is it time to move?
1. A configuration and architecture review
We examine your servers, integrations, services and infrastructure to find the improvements that matter most, whether that’s a simple fix or a bigger change.
2. Stay or move
Working collaboratively with you, we assess whether your current system can be kept secure and improved, or whether it’s time to move on to Dynamics 365.
3. Clear recommendations
You’ll receive a prioritised plan with your best next steps made totally clear.
Case study: stability for one of the world’s largest AX 2012 environments
A large discount retailer with shops across Europe runs one of the biggest AX 2012 environments anywhere, exactly the kind of system many partners shy away from. We didn’t. We introduced real-time monitoring, strengthened the health of the wider environment, and built firm rules around peak trading seasons. Six years on, it’s one of our most enduring partnerships.
Case study: a property group that outgrew AX 2012
A leading UK land and property regeneration group had been let down by an AX 2012 system that couldn’t cope: poor controls, too much room for error and little visibility for audits and approvals.
We implemented Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain Management, automated key workflows, overhauled security roles and added enterprise-grade reporting. The bottlenecks went, and the partnership continues.
