Insight Works, a leading Independent Software Vendor (ISV) specializing in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, has renewed its efforts to promote a suite of free applications designed to augment the functionality of Business Central installations. This initiative aims to empower Microsoft Partners with tools to differentiate themselves in the marketplace and provide added value to their clients.
The suite of free apps offered by Insight Works addresses several key functional gaps in the standard Business Central package. Among these offerings are WMS Express, which enables businesses to utilize mobile computers and barcode scanning for more efficient warehouse management; Order Ship Express, which simplifies shipping operations with real-time rates and efficient label printing; and the Barcode Generator PowerTool, allowing businesses to integrate 1D and 2D barcodes into their reports.
Another notable application in the suite is DocXtender, which facilitates the attachment of documents directly to Business Central records through a simple drag-and-drop feature. These tools collectively enable Microsoft Partners to deliver more comprehensive and tailored solutions to their clients, enhancing overall functionality and user experience.
Brian Neufeld, Director of Marketing at Insight Works, emphasized the company’s focus on supporting Microsoft Partners: ‘We understand that Business Central, while powerful, has areas where partners can add significant value through apps. Our free tools like the Import Export PowerTool make tasks like data migration easier and incredibly fast, allowing partners to deliver efficient, high-quality services to their clients.’
The Import Export PowerTool stands out as a particularly valuable asset for Microsoft Partners. This application streamlines data migration processes, allowing users to import and export data up to 30 times faster than traditional methods. This efficiency is crucial for partners tasked with migrating data between Business Central environments, sandboxes, or from legacy systems.
By offering these solutions at no cost, Insight Works is enabling Microsoft Partners to enhance their service offerings and improve client satisfaction while maintaining a cost-effective approach. This strategy aligns with the growing trend of leveraging third-party applications to address specific needs within enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems.
The availability of these free apps through Microsoft AppSource and the Extension Marketplace allows partners to easily integrate these tools into their existing Business Central installations. This accessibility ensures that partners can quickly evaluate and implement the apps that best suit their clients’ needs.
Insight Works’ initiative comes at a time when businesses are increasingly looking to optimize their ERP systems for improved efficiency and functionality. By providing these free tools, the company is not only supporting Microsoft Partners but also contributing to the broader ecosystem of Business Central users.
The impact of these free apps extends beyond individual businesses, potentially influencing the broader industry by setting new standards for what clients can expect from their Business Central implementations. As more partners adopt these tools, it could lead to a shift in how businesses approach ERP customization and functionality enhancement.
For Microsoft Partners looking to stay competitive in the Dynamics 365 Business Central market, exploring and leveraging these free apps from Insight Works could provide a significant advantage. The ability to offer enhanced functionality without additional cost to clients represents a valuable opportunity to strengthen client relationships and potentially expand service offerings.
