Adopting AI-Powered Cloud Technology: A Guide for SMBs to Grow Faster with Dynamics 365 Business Central
Introduction
In today’s fast-paced business world, staying competitive means embracing AI-powered cloud technology. Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer a luxury—it’s an essential tool for small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) to automate workflows, improve decision-making, and scale operations.
However, while many business leaders recognize the importance of AI, implementing it effectively remains a challenge. According to recent research, while 71% of SMB leaders believe AI adoption is crucial, 61% lack a clear strategy to implement AI solutions. This gap leaves businesses struggling with inefficient processes and outdated technology.
