Microsoft has announced the timeline for the gradual phase-out of support for Dynamics GP, signalling a new chapter for businesses using this trusted platform.
Microsoft Dynamics GP End of Support
Here’s what to expect:
Product enhancements will conclude on the 30th September, 2029
While the platform will continue to function, no further updates will be released to expand or enhance its features.
Security updates will end on the 30th April, 2031
After this date, security patches will no longer be issued, which may increase your system’s exposure to emerging threats.
These changes present an opportunity to re-evaluate your system to ensure it continues to meet your business’s evolving needs. By planning ahead, you can transition smoothly to a solution that supports your goals, maintains security, and ensures long-term success.
How We’re Supporting Our Customers
-
Ensuring Compatibility and Security
We strongly recommend upgrading to one of the latest versions of Dynamics GP (18.xx) to minimise potential compatibility and security risks.
-
Ongoing Helpdesk Support
For customers using older GP versions, we will continue to provide helpdesk support on a best endeavours basis, ensuring you receive assistance when you need it most.
-
Long-Term Commitment to GP Users
As the largest GP Partner in Europe, mhance remains dedicated to the GP community. We are actively reviewing long-term support options to ensure continued service after 2029.
-
Preparing for the Future
We plan to continue supporting customers who remain on GP, again providing "best endeavours" assistance for certain versions. Our long-term support arrangements will focus on bespoke development and aligning with third-party software and vendor solutions. However, we recognise the evolving landscape, where the availability of GP expertise may diminish as the industry shifts toward cloud-based and modern technologies.
