The ConfigCompare Platform

One governance model. Specialist components.

Capture, compare, understand and govern Microsoft Dynamics 365 configuration with components that each have a clear responsibility.

Platform components

Adopt the capabilities you need without losing the governance model.

Every component works from the same deterministic evidence while retaining one clearly defined responsibility.

Where it starts

Everything begins with a Snapshot.

A Snapshot is a point-in-time capture of configuration. Every comparison, alert, audit trail and AI explanation on this page is derived from them.

Where AI runs

Your configuration never leaves your environment.

AI Insights explain Deterministic Comparison results. They run against an API endpoint you control, and AXImprove has no visibility of your Snapshots or Comparisons.

Read the AI Insights reference

  • Customer-controlled endpoint

    Insights are generated against an API endpoint under your control, inside your own environment.

  • Nothing sent automatically

    Generation is on demand, so AI involvement is always an explicit choice rather than a background process.

  • No AXImprove visibility

    Snapshots, comparison results and generated insights all remain within your environment.

  • Comparison stays deterministic

    Comparison logic remains inside the engine. AI explains its output and never performs the Comparison.

From result to owner

A Ruleset turns a Difference into someone's responsibility.

Rulesets classify each result by severity and assign Responsibility, per table and per field. The comparison stays deterministic; the Ruleset decides what matters and who is accountable for it.

ConfigCompare - Ruleset
Severity and ownership are configured once, then applied to every comparison that uses the Ruleset.
ConfigCompare - Ruleset
ConfigCompare - Results by Responsibility
Each team sees the results they own, rather than the whole comparison.

How the offer is structured

A core platform with capabilities that expand by need and scale.

Commercial licensing enables capabilities; it does not redefine them. This keeps the product architecture, governance purpose and commercial model distinct.

Core platform01

Configuration evidence

Deterministic Comparison, Snapshot capture, monitoring, Rulesets, AI Insights and audit evidence generation.

Optional capabilities02

Governance where needed

Adopt lifecycle, audit, support, upgrade, ConfigTrack, ConfigAudit and cross-tenant capabilities against your priorities.

Scale & service03

Match the operating model

Scale from a single implementation to multi-company, multi-tenant, enterprise or partner-managed governance.

Start where the business pressure is greatest.

Organisations can begin with one governance priority and expand over time while retaining the same deterministic foundation.

  1. 01

    Application Lifecycle Management

    Validate configuration as it moves through DEV, TEST, UAT, GOLD and PROD.

  2. 02

    Governance & Audit

    Monitor live environments, detect drift and retain evidence for internal control.

  3. 03

    Testing & Support

    Replace assumptions with evidence during UAT, regression testing and incident triage.

  4. 04

    Upgrades

    Compare configuration and application metadata before and after application change.

Roadmap

Extending Configuration Governance beyond the current platform.

These are planned platform directions, clearly separated from currently available D365 Finance & Supply Chain Management capabilities.

Platform

Business Central

Snapshot and comparison capabilities for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

Platform

Dataverse & Power Platform

Snapshot and Configuration Governance capabilities for Dataverse configuration.

Platform

External Comparison Client

Comparison access for customers and partners outside a core installation.

Platform

External Snapshot Client

Standardised Snapshot capture through deterministic ConfigCompare APIs.

Enhancement

Structured BLOB Comparison

Unpacks binary configuration of known formats, such as approval workflow definitions, so their contents become comparable rather than only detected.

Enhancement

Governance Dashboard

A central dashboard in Central Command Center presenting comparison results and governance status across the estate.

Enhancement

MCP support

Model Context Protocol as an orchestration and access layer for AI-assisted scenarios. It adds no comparison logic.

Utility

Security setup extraction

External extraction of security configuration for Power BI, to compare the access users are granted with the access they actually use.
