Microsoft Dynamics NAV is now Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Microsoft Dynamics NAV became Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central in 2018. The name change was part of Microsoft’s effort to unify its Dynamics suite of business applications under the Dynamics 365 brand.

As of January 2023, All versions of Dynamics NAV are no longer in mainstream support from Microsoft. Dynamics NAV 2013 and 2013 R2 also went out of Extended Support in January 2023.

Although Synergy Technology can still support current customers who still have a on-premise installation of Microsoft Dynamics NAV, it is strongly recommended that all users still on Dynamics NAV migrate to Microsoft’s cloud-based ERP solution, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

You can learn more about Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, on our main Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Page.

How Can Synergy Technology Help?

Whether you are a current customer of Synergy Technology, or you just have an on-premise installation on Microsoft Dynamics NAV, and would like to explore the possibilities or migrating to a cloud solution, Synergy Technology can help.

Synergy Technology have years of experience of managing migration to the cloud, and can help you make the switch while minimising disruption to your business. There is also an incentive programme from Microsoft, currently running that you can take advantage of.

Beginning in February 2023, Microsoft launched its Bridge to the Cloud 2 promotion. This promotion is aimed at encouraging Microsoft Dynamics users who still have an on-premise installation to make the move to one of the Microsoft Dynamics 365 online offerings.

To encourage users to make the move, Microsoft are offering a 40% discount over a 3-year term, when buying through an eligible partner such as Synergy Technology.

With the updates to Microsoft Dynamics Price List (DPL) policies and offers that Microsoft has also announced, there has never been a better time to make the move to the cloud.

“Dynamics is a core part of our business now really, and the development we’re doing is helping us to become more and more efficient. Without the small changes we need it would be a manual process, which nobody wants.”

“If we had to go back to the way we worked before the software was implemented, we’d have to employ more people just to do the same amount of work.”
