What differentiates Dynamics 365 Business Central from other similar products?

It allows the most customization out of any other CRM software I have seen implemented.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The resources available to help train for this product. There were plenty of consultants sent to my company that were very helpful with getting me to learn the product.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It does take a lot of external collaboration to bring this product on, but that is typical of software of this nature.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Have a plan in place, budget for external consultants. It will be hard to learn in house without anyone to be brought on to train. And when you do, ask lots of questions- they are there to help you.
