We connect Azure Application Insights to your Business Central and measure an ordinary working week. Then we know which pages, reports and background jobs cost time, and you get the fixes in order of priority with an estimate for each.
All prices exclude VAT. Business Central and Microsoft 365 licences come on top.
- Azure Application Insights set up
- One week of measurement in normal use
- Analysis of pages, reports and job queue
- Written report with prioritised fixes
- Review meeting
For you if
- users complain that certain pages or reports are slow
- webshop sync or the job queue seems to take time away from users during the working day
- you want to know what needs fixing before you spend money fixing it
What you get
- Telemetry set upAzure Application Insights connected to your Business Central environment.
- One week of measurementData from an ordinary working week: the day's peaks and the overnight jobs.
- Slow pages and reportsWhich pages and reports, how long they take, and at what time of day.
- Background jobsThe job queue, webshop sync and other integrations, and when they compete with users.
- Written reportThe fixes in order of priority, with an effort estimate for each.
- Review meetingWe go through the report with you so you can decide what to do.
Not included
- The fixes themselves. They are in the report with an estimate, and you choose what we do.
- Fixes in other vendors' apps. If the bottleneck is in a third-party extension, we document it so you can take it up with the vendor.
- Ongoing monitoring after the measurement week.
Slow has a cause, and it can be measured
When Business Central feels sluggish, it is tempting to guess at the fix: more licences, a different plan, a new integration. Telemetry shows where the time actually goes.
Often the page users complain about is not the problem; something running at the same time is. A typical finding is background syncs working in the same data as users in the middle of the working day. You only see that kind of thing when you measure over several days.
- Page times per hour
- Background jobs
- The slowest pages
From setup to report
You give us access to the Business Central admin center. We handle the rest, and users carry on as normal.
- Setup
We create Application Insights and connect it to your environment. Nothing to install for users.
- One week of measurement
Telemetry collects data from an ordinary working week: pages, reports, job queue and integrations.
- Analysis
We find the slow pages, reports and background jobs and look at when they hit users.
- Report and meeting
You get the report with prioritised fixes and estimates, and we go through it together.
What people often ask us
Will users notice the measurement?
No. Business Central sends telemetry to Application Insights in the background. Nobody has to install anything or work differently during the week.
Why measure for a whole week?
Because a working week shows the patterns: the morning peak, the first days of the month and the jobs that run at night. A single day may be one that looks nothing like the others.
What do the fixes cost?
That is in the report. Every fix has an estimate, so you can pick the ones that make the biggest difference. Nothing is done until you have said yes.
What if the problem is in another vendor's app?
Then the report shows it, with the measurements as evidence, and you can take it up with the vendor. We don't change other people's code without an agreement.
Do we have to be an existing customer?
No. We can measure your Business Central whoever set it up. We just need access to the Business Central admin center to connect the telemetry.
Let's measure before you fix
Tell us what feels slow. In a 30-minute meeting we agree when the measurement week starts.
30 minutes on Teams with Sten or Lauge. You talk to the person who builds it.
