ISVs, WTF? Why the Fear from Bolt-On Solutions is Holding You Back

Explore how Business Central ISVs drive industry specific innovation without fear.


Let’s be honest — the phrase “bolt-on solution” gives some folks flashbacks. But in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) aren’t patchwork fixes. They’re precision-built tools that extend your ERP without the bloat, breakage or budget blow out of legacy solutions.

In this 30-minute session, we’ll demystify the dreaded three-letter acronym and explain why Business Central is built like the iPhone of ERP: a secure, scalable core financial platform designed for mid-market businesses — with vetted, trustworthy apps that fit your industry, automate operations and enable agile, future-ready processes.

We'll also tackle:

  • How to spot the good, the bad and the unnecessary when it comes to third-party tools
  • Why Business Central’s app ecosystem is curated, not cluttered,
  • How to scale with smart extensions (and even AI) without going full enterprise level

Whether you’re new to BC or recovering from past ERP pain, this session will show how Business Central’s unique partner ecosystem drives industry-specific innovation — and why the three letters ‘ISV’ are no longer something to fear.

  1. Understand how BC’s ISV ecosystem works and what makes it unique.
  2. Understand how Microsoft vets and supports its ISV app marketplace, ensuring security, performance and seamless integration.>
  3. Find the right balance between core ERP functionality and ISV add-ons, avoiding unnecessary cost.>
  4. Understand how the Business Central + Copilot + ISV approach drives automation, reporting and vertical-specific best practices.
