WatServ Solves Global Manufacturing Company’s ERP Challenge by Migrating Dynamics AX to Azure

In late 2019, WatServ was approached by Haynes International, a global manufacturing company that was facing a challenge: Their mission-critical ERP, which they relied on for Order Entry, Operations and Finance, was running on a Windows Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008 platform that was going out of support by Microsoft in January 2020. They needed an expedited solution to protect their ERP from security, performance and resiliency risks and to safeguard their overall critical business processes.

Although their end goal was to migrate to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations, they were not yet ready to upgrade. They needed an immediate solution that would extend the support they were receiving from Microsoft for Windows Server and SQL as they planned for the upgrade.

The company chose WatServ because our team has extensive cloud engineering and consulting experience, including specialized knowledge in migrating and managing Microsoft Dynamics. We also offer a robust CloudOps platform and our SOC certification means we follow industry-standard best practices for service management that is audited yearly.
