In 2019, HOST International replaced Microsoft Dynamics GP with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central to address core finance and accounting needs. HOST International implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central for ERP Financial to consolidate accounting, financial reporting and control across its Australia based Non Profit with approximately 75 employees.
The implementation focused on core financial modules typical of the ERP Financial category, including general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, cash management and budgeting. Configuration work included chart of accounts rationalization, dimension setup for fund and project accounting, permissions and approval workflows, and automation of routine tasks such as invoice posting and bank reconciliation.
Data migration moved customer and vendor master records, opening balances and historical financial data from Microsoft Dynamics GP into Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, with interfaces configured for payroll and bank statement ingestion as standard finance system integrations. Operational coverage centered on finance and administration teams, with the system serving as the single source of record for financial transactions and reporting across the organization.
Governance changes accompanied the cutover, including tightened financial controls, revised month end close processes and user training to support adoption. The documented outcome from the change over was a reduction in software annual subscription cost by over 90 percent by moving from Microsoft Dynamics GP to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

| GoDaddy | Legacy | GoDaddy | Application Hosting and Computing Services | IaaS | n/a | 2019 | 2019 |
In 2019 HOST International implemented GoDaddy to host its public website and manage domain services, using GoDaddy as its Application Hosting and Computing Services for the organisation. The deployment centers on GoDaddy web hosting and domain control plane capabilities to support the organisation's external digital presence and public communications channels.
The implementation leverages standard GoDaddy hosting capabilities including site hosting, DNS management, and control panel administration, with typical category-aligned features such as SSL certificate provisioning and account-level user management. GoDaddy is configured to serve the organisation's website content and associated web assets, providing the core compute and delivery layer within the Application Hosting and Computing Services model.
Operational coverage is focused on web and communications functions, with centralized administrative access retained by the internal IT and communications staff to manage DNS, domain renewals, and hosting settings. Integrations are limited to the organisation's website stack and outbound email routing, reflecting a straightforward hosting relationship rather than a multi-vendor platform ecosystem.
Governance emphasizes centralized account and domain ownership, change control for DNS and certificate actions, and routine hosting administration procedures to maintain site availability and security. HOST International GoDaddy Application Hosting and Computing Services supports its public information, communications, and donor engagement activities without indications of expanded enterprise infrastructure roles.
