Familiar to Your People:
Microsoft Dynamics AX works like other Microsoft products you and your colleagues are familiar with, helping reduce the time required to learn how to use it, and freeing up time to focus on what matters most. Designed with a focus on the roles people play throughout your company, Microsoft Dynamics AX delivers an individualized, task-based user experience and allows your employees to easily customize and automate based on their own preferences and work style. That means less training and development time and a quicker return on your investment.

Fits with Your Systems:
Microsoft Dynamics AX works the way your current technology works so it fits easily into your systems, helping to maximize your investment in Microsoft technology. This in turn allows your employees to use a powerful business management solution within a familiar environment. Take advantage of BizTalk® tools for data mapping, partner configuration and improved security. Or, integrate with other Microsoft product innovations, including Microsoft SQL ServerTM and Microsoft Windows.®

Fuels Your Business Productivity:
Microsoft Dynamics AX helps fuel your productivity by automating your business-critical operations and adapting to fit into your type of business helping ensure the most relevant insight. How? With a user experience modelled around tasks and roles and integrated with familiar productivity tools like Microsoft Office. With integration between Microsoft Dynamics AX and Microsoft SharePoint® technologies collaboration is fostered among your employees, vendors and customers. And, by integrating financial, customer relationship and supply chain processes to help maximize both internal and external efficiencies, costs are reduced and performance improved.

Enables Confident Decision-Making:
Microsoft Dynamics AX helps you respond rapidly to the changing demands of your business, providing you with more complete insight across your organization so you and your people can make timely and informed decisions with increased confidence. With Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft® Office Excel® analysis tools and Microsoft Dynamics AX working together, you gain access to critical data. That data can be easily analyzed and your employees get the information they want out of the system in the way they want and need, using a tool that is already familiar to them.
