Quick facts about Business Central
Microsoft product in the cloud
Business Central is part of Microsoft, and the benefits are tremendous. Microsoft consistently integrates its products, and investments in AI and other intelligent features are substantial. This provides reassurance for users, ensuring access to the latest technologies and innovations.
Part of the Dynamics 365 family – Work smarter!
Microsoft’s Business Apps offer a comprehensive ecosystem for entrepreneurs. With Sales Support, Marketing, ERP, Customer Service, etc., you don’t need multiple systems; you can consolidate everything in Dynamics 365. As a bonus, they also integrate seamlessly with the traditional Microsoft 365 (formerly Office suite) apps, enabling smart features like sending invoices/quotes directly from Outlook or using a chatbot in Teams to check your inventory balance.
Scalable, never change business systems again.
Many cloud-based business systems today are quite limited and primarily target small businesses. When needs change, you’re forced to switch systems, which can be a challenging transition. With Business Central, you’re investing in the future because it’s a cloud-based system that can scale to any size and complexity.
Derived from Microsoft Dynamics NAV
From NAV to Business Central, how does the system work today?
Many may recognise Dynamics NAV as what was formerly known as Dynamics 365 Business Central. Much has changed over the years, and today the system is built on a completely different structure and, of course, cloud-based
Universal foundation for global accessibility
The foundation of Business Central is designed to be universal and usable in different regions and countries worldwide. With the assistance of Microsoft partners like NAB Solutions, the solution is customised to function in a specific region where laws and regulations may differ. One advantage of this is that Business Central is ideal for companies operating in various regions and countries since you can use the same system.
The ability to customise according to specific needs
On top of the foundation and regional adaptations, there’s the option to create more specific customisations. It could be for a particular industry or if you have other complex challenges. These customisations require development by our developers, and the possibilities are truly limitless.
Additional functionality / integrations as apps
All business/ERP systems today can integrate other solutions with their system, and there’s no difference in Business Central. Some functionality is also the same regardless of the customer, and instead of spending money on developing something that already exists, Microsoft introduced apps in Business Central. We’ll continue discussing apps in the next paragraph.
Apps? What are the benefits?
Back in the day, all solutions were customer-specific, and it worked well as long as customers had their solution on-premises, meaning locally installed on a server within the office.
When a new version of the system was released, all customer customisations needed to be reviewed to ensure that the code would work in the new update. This was a costly task for customers with many customisations. When Business Central transitioned to the cloud, enabling automatic updates, the need for a more future-proof solution increased.
So what did Microsoft do? Well, they introduced apps containing specific functionality that suits multiple customer solutions. Let’s take an example: Almost every company wants to approve invoices. Instead of developing this functionality for each company individually, partners created an application for this purpose. When it’s time for a new version, the app is updated for all companies with it installed. Suddenly, parts of the solution can be updated automatically, and you always have the latest technology without it costing you as a customer a lot of money.
To develop apps for Business Central, they must be verified by Microsoft. NAB’s sister company, Smartapps, develops apps, but NAB also utilises apps from other providers. We are always here to support you in selecting the right apps, as finding the most suitable ones can sometimes be challenging.
Licenses
Monthly cost per user
All products in Dynamics 365 require a license from Microsoft, billed monthly. Licenses are based on the number of users and their roles in the system. There are 3 different levels: Essentials, Premium, and Team Member. Everyone who needs access to the system requires a license. Note that if your solution requires premium licenses, everyone who will work in the system needs a premium license. You cannot mix Essentials and Premium licenses.
Essentials
Full license
Premium
Licenses for users who only require ‘read-only’ access and time reporting
Team member
License for users who only require “read-only” access and time reporting.
Work smarter together
Collaborate seamlessly with Outlook, Teams, Excel, and other Microsoft 365 apps
Microsoft 365 (formerly the Office suite) is arguably the most popular product suite among entrepreneurs worldwide. Naturally, it is integrated with Dynamics 365, making the ecosystem even better and more comprehensive. Send invoices and quotes directly from Outlook or create chatbots in Teams to check inventory levels. The possibilities are immense.
