What is digital transformation? Digital transformation is the rethinking of how the enterprise uses technology and business processes to drive new revenue streams and having products, digital and physical, in the right place at the right time.
With Finance and Operations, Microsoft has gone all in on the digital transformation of the ERP system. From the technical aspects of choosing whether to use the on-premise version of D365 F&O or going cloud with Azure to choosing from the many new automation tools for your business needs, Microsoft is working to streamline the process of implementing all the functionality needed within an ERP and getting you back to what you do best – running your business.
With deep integration into PowerBI and Power Platform, Microsoft has made it easier than ever to get the data you need in the places you need it in for informed decision-making and grow customer satisfaction.
