Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Mid-market ERP with a unique resource-based licensing model (no per-user fees) that makes it attractive for organisations with large headcounts. Strong industry editions for Distribution, Construction, and Field Service, though it's delivered exclusively through a VAR partner network, so implementation quality depends heavily on the partner you choose.
