A dynamic lift from AX for Microsoft?

Microsoft wants to prove that it can still walk the talk.

Today, it is introducing Dynamics AX 4.0, the re-baptized and more muscular version of its Axapta ERP product, in the hopes of showing strong growth in the large enterprise market.

The Microsoft Business Solutions division, of which Dynamics AX is a part, is the second-smallest in the software giant's empire. But that also gives it a lot of room to grow, and Microsoft nurtures high hopes for this segment.

"It's a lot easier to grow market share in business solutions than in areas where we already have 90 percent of the market," said Mark Jensen, general manager for Dynamics AX.
