About

Microsoft Dynamics SL is an enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution that combines powerful project - and financial-management capabilities to help businesses manage customer demands, keep up with compliance regulations, and deliver services on time and on budget. Most accounting software isn't made for project work, and most industry-specific solutions don’t have the accounting tools you need. Dynamics SL bridges the gap by combining project management software and accounting capabilities for end-to-end functionality. Improve your sales, project management, job costing, materials management, and more—all integrated with your financial systems. Complete projects on time, on budget, and to specifications—while collecting and retaining the detailed information needed to address and comply with regulations. Make better, data-driven decisions, manage your people and financials, and maintain your profitability for client services and projects.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I like that I can manage all my employees and ensure they have access to digital pay stubs on time and correctly. The admin end of Foundation Software is easy to navigate and set up new users as we onboard them. The design of their website is easy to use and support is always available when needed.

Cons

  • There should be an Android and iPhone app. Currently, you have to log into the website on your phone through a browser. Password management sometimes can be difficult with a large user group because password changes and management are only done via email invite to the employee on an individual basis.
