What’s shaping the Business Systems of the Future With the abundance of desktop and mobile devices and platforms, there are now numerous ways for consumers and information workers alike to create and consume applications and services. Enterprise applications are having to evolve to keep up, and your ERP system is no exception – like all other applications, they too need to move with the times. The session focussed on emerging trends in business solutions from Microsoft and a forward looking view on what Microsoft Dynamics ERP might look like in the future. In this session, we covered: - How business processes can be embedded into users’ own devices - How social systems are influencing business system design – how Microsoft Dynamics is responding to the growing influence of social systems - Previewing design concepts for the future versions of Dynamics ERP applications, including a Metro-based application Presented by James Page and Nick Johnson of Intergen along with Sue Driscoll of Microsoft, this session provided an exclusive behind the scenes look at how Microsoft’s ERP solutions could evolve in the future. While the focus of the session was on Microsoft Dynamics, this session could also be of interest to those people who want an insight into how enterprise systems in general are having to evolve to keep up with new devices and interaction methods.
