Performing an ERP system upgrade can be daunting. Upgrades typically take extended periods of time and costs can balloon depending on server and customization needs. For years, Dynamics NAV has been a tried-and-true ERP system that most organizations deploy on-premises. In recent years, Dynamics NAV has gone through a cloud transformation rebranding as Dynamics 365 Business Central. Business Central is Dynamics NAV at heart (including code base), but with a modern, cloud-based interface. Making the jump from Dynamics NAV to Business Central is indeed a big project. Many organizations may consider upgrading their existing Dynamics NAV system to the latest version, and moving it to the Azure cloud. This upgrade to the cloud eliminates the need for costly in-house servers and prepares staff and business processes for an eventual move to Business Central.
Why put Dynamics NAV on the cloud?
For organizations looking to upgrade Dynamics NAV, performing a system upgrade is the perfect time to move to the cloud. Moving to the cloud will eliminate the need to purchase a new server or upgrade existing infrastructure while also increasing data security and accessibility. Once the upgrade is complete, Syvantis can migrate the system to Azure in as little as four weeks thanks to our rapid migration methodology. How can we complete cloud migrations so quickly? Syvantis has been hosting Dynamics applications in the cloud since 2008. In fact, we were the first partner to bring Dynamics ERP customers to the Azure Cloud and have since completed hundreds of migrations.
What is the Azure Cloud?
The Azure cloud is an open and flexible cloud platform created by Microsoft that developers use to build, deploy, and manage applications through a global network of datacenters. Syvantis utilizes the Azure platform to develop cloud solutions for Dynamics 365 and Microsoft 365 products. At this point, Azure outpaces the security and compliance of many on-premises server setups without the required maintenance and manual upgrades.
Dynamics NAV on Azure pricing
With our flexible pricing model, organizations can choose to either keep their existing annual renewal fees, or switch to subscription licensing and pay monthly. Subscription licensing is an appealing option because it allows organizations to add or remove users at any time meaning they only pay for the users who are using the application. Check out our full licensing guide for cloud pricing here.
