Microsoft Dynamics NAV (formerly Navision) is possibly one of the most flexible Enterprise Resource Planning solution available and used more widely than any other Dynamics ERP solution to manage finances, stock and distribution in-store. The cost-effective ERP solution is easily adapted to specialized industries enabling business to allow full customization tailored to their specific needs. If you use Microsoft Dynamics NAV as an ERP system but want to expand your business worldwide by establishing an online presence through the means of an online store, you will need a way to connect your existing Microsoft Dynamics NAV with online WebStore to experience real time integration and automatic updates.

Though there are many choices, Magento is considered by retailers and wholesalers to be one of the top e-commerce platforms because of its easy customization and flexibility. Magento offers a  wide variety of extensions to completely customize the end user’s experience. Best practices have shown that these two systems – e-commerce and ERP – need to be able to work together to have a seamless operation, especially since your web store is open 24 hours a day.
