Alex Chow has been working with Microsoft Dynamics NAV, formerly Navision, since 1999. Over the years, Alex has conducted hundreds of implementations across multiple industries. His customers range from $2 million a year small enterprises to $500 million a year multinational corporations.
Over the course of his Dynamics NAV career, he has often been designated as the primary person responsible for the success and failure of a Dynamics NAV implementation. The fact that Alex is still in the Dynamics NAV business means that he's been pretty lucky so far. His extensive career in the Dynamics NAV business is evidence of his success rate and expertise.
With a background of implementing all the functions and modules in and outside of Microsoft Dynamics NAV, Alex has encountered and resolved the most practical to the most complex requirements and business rules. Through these experiences, he has learned that sometimes you have to be a little crazy to have a competitive edge.
Believing that sharing these experiences and knowledge would benefit the Dynamics NAV community, Alex writes about his journey at www.dynamicsnavconsultant.com. He is also the founder of AP Commerce, Inc. (www.apcommerce.com), a full service Dynamics NAV service center founded in 2005. In addition, Alex has written a book about Dynamics NAV titled Getting Started with Dynamics NAV 2013 Application Development, Packt Publishing.
Alex lives in Southern California with his beautiful wife and two lovely daughters. He considers himself as the luckiest man in the world.

Daniel Rimmelzwaan was born and raised in the Netherlands and moved to the USA at the end of 1999 to be with his new American wife. In Holland, he worked as a Microsoft Access and VBA developer. When looking for a job as a VB developer in the USA, he was introduced to Navision by a VB recruiter and was intrigued by the simplicity of its development tools. He decided to accept the job offer as a Navision developer with the firm intention to continue looking for a real developer job.
Almost 15 years later, a couple of stints with Microsoft's partner channel, a few years as a freelancer, Daniel is still working with NAV. He currently works with KCP Dynamics Group, an international partner that provides services to customers all over the world, and he is enjoying his career more than ever.
Daniel has had the opportunity to work in a wide variety of roles such as developer, analyst, designer, team lead, project manager, consultant, and more. Although he has a versatile experience with all things related to NAV, his main focus is designing custom solutions and business analysis.
Ever since he started working with NAV, Daniel has been an active member of the online communities for NAV, such as http://mibuso.com/, http://dynamicsuser.net/, and the online forums managed by Microsoft. For his contributions to these online communities, Daniel received his first of ten consecutive Microsoft Most Valuable Professional awards in July 2005, which was just the second year that the MVP award was given out for NAV. The MVP award is given out by Microsoft to independent members of technology communities around the world and recognizes people that share their knowledge with other members of the community.
Daniel lives with his wife and two kids in Arizona in the USA.
