Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central / NAV vs. SAP S/4HANA: Differences and reasons for the switch
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, the successor to Dynamics NAV, and SAP S/4HANA are among the leading ERP systems on the market. Although both solutions support companies in optimizing business processes, they differ significantly in terms of target groups, functions and technological approaches.
Differences between Microsoft Business Central and SAP S/4HANA
Target group
- Microsoft Business Central is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). It provides a flexible and cost-effective cloud solution that can be easily adapted to a company’s individual requirements.
- SAP S/4HANA, on the other hand, is aimed at larger companies and corporations. It is able to cover complex business requirements such as global supply chains, financial accounting and production planning.
Technology
- Microsoft Business Central, which is based on the proven technology of Dynamics NAV, is cloud-based and offers close integration with Microsoft 365 applications (such as Teams and Power BI). A Microsoft SQL database works in the background.
- SAP S/4HANA uses the powerful HANA database, which enables real-time data processing and supports advanced technologies such as machine learning and AI.
Costs
- Microsoft Business Central is particularly attractive for SMEs, as it has an attractive pricing model that is designed to be flexible.
- SAP S/4HANA is more costly and requires extensive implementation projects, making it an investment that only makes sense for larger organizations.
Which ERP system is right for your company?
While Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is ideal for SMEs, SAP S/4HANA offers advantages above all for large companies that rely on highly scalable, future-proof and data-driven technologies. The switch to SAP S/4HANA is often motivated by strategic requirements or the end of support for older SAP systems as well as company mergers.
