    I work in Finance for a large healthcare system and we have been using Dynamic 365 to manage aspects of our non-clinical operations for supplies and some departmental workflows. I rated it 4 out of 5 because its a solid, cloud based ERP that integrates seamlessly with out Microsoft 365 ecosystem, which is huge for the productivity in a Microsoft heavy environment. It has significantly improved real-time visibility into financial data, streamlined accounting processes, and helped with compliance reporting which is critical in healthcare.

Microsoft licensing systems are always overly complicated UI has a very classic feel which makes it feel somewhat outdated Due to the licensing issues, a partner was required to integrate this in our company
