    It is so flexible and configurable that it can be fairly easily adapted to most situations.

    Microsoft
    Its well suited for medium and large organizations that needs strong financial control , automated workflows , inter-company accounting and real-time reporting . It works wonderfully with all the Microsoft products . However , it may be less useful for small businesses as it requires a good investment in implementation , customization , licensing and user training

    Cons
    Frappe
    • Random errors (seem to be related to python) can be very difficult to troubleshoot.
    • Creating reports and print/email documents is very cumbersome and confusing. Needs to have a WYSIWYG editor.

    Wanted something flexible and with the ability to self-host. Open source is also nice.

    Microsoft
    Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance is more robust, and can handle larger, more complex business operations, and have better delineation between corporate management and divisions in a company, but it is not flexible, nor easy to change. It is complex, inflexible, and difficult to incorporate new workflows or business rules to accommodate changes in the business. We have changed over the past decade and while F&O is big and robust, it is not nimble.

    Return on Investment
    Frappe
    • Neutral, needed to find a new system as the current system is being retired.

    Microsoft
    • Because F&O is not very nimble, we are looking to reimplement
    • The lack of interoperability has hindered our ability to use external tools to supplement shortcomings of the product
    • The inflexibility has lead to great frustration from team leads
