We help Business Central customers do more
Hougaard.com builds apps and tools for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central that help companies extend, automate, secure, and improve their ERP without the cost, delays, or risks of traditional custom development.
Our apps solve real Business Central problems: Customization, automation, document handling, security, reporting, integrations, portals, data movement, and AI-assisted productivity.
The goal is simple: Help organizations get more value from Business Central while keeping their solution cleaner, easier to upgrade, and easier to support.
Find the right Apps for your business
Built for Business Central
Our apps are made specifically for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, based on deep, hands-on knowledge of the platform and the real challenges customers and partners face every day.
Value at every level
Hougaard.com apps help partners deliver faster, give administrators and super-users more control, and make daily work easier for end-users.
Try in a Sandbox
All Hougaard.com apps are free to use in a Business Central cloud sandbox. Install from Microsoft Marketplace, test for as long as you like, and purchase a subscription when you are ready for production.
Built by Business Central specialists
Hougaard.com is led by Erik Hougaard, a Microsoft MVP and long-time Business Central expert who has worked with the Microsoft Dynamics ecosystem since 1990.
Erik shares his time between Hougaard.com and EFOQUS, where he is a Managing Partner. This keeps him closely connected to real-world Business Central projects, while Hougaard.com remains focused on building apps and tools that support customers and Microsoft Partners.
We believe the best Business Central apps should feel like they belong inside Business Central. They should solve real problems, respect the platform, and make users more capable without making the system harder to maintain.
Apps that make Business Central better at every level
Business Central projects involve many different people: Partners who implement and support the system, administrators and super-users who keep it running, and end-users who simply need their daily work to be easier.
Partners can deliver more functionality with less repetitive custom development. Administrators and super users can adapt, automate, secure, and improve Business Central without turning every change into a development project. End users get better workflows, fewer workarounds, and tools that fit naturally into their daily work.
Some customers use our apps together with their Microsoft partner. Others purchase and use them directly. In both cases, the goal is the same: Help organizations get more value from Business Central without adding unnecessary complexity.
Innovation, but only when it solves a real problem
We like new technology, but only when it helps solve a real Business Central problem.
That philosophy has led to tools like Simple Object Designer, which helps users customize Business Central without writing code; SharePoint Connector, which connects Business Central records with SharePoint document management; Advanced Cloud Security + Compliance, which adds deeper control over data access and compliance workflows; and Simple Agent Designer, which brings AI agents into Business Central in a controlled and useful way.
Each app starts with a real Business Central challenge. Then we ask: Can this be solved in a way that is easier, safer, and more reusable than a custom development project? If the answer is yes, we build it.
Community is part of who we are
Hougaard.com grew from the Business Central community.
Erik has been blogging about Business Central for years and publishes weekly videos that help developers, consultants, Partners, and tecnical users better understand the platform. That community work is not separate from the company, it is part of how we learn, teach, and improve.
We share knowledge because a stronger Business Central community benefits everyone: Customers, Partners, developers, and Microsoft itself.
