Business Central Licensing & Pricing

Cloud-based vs on-premise deployment

Dynamics 365 Business Central accounting software can be deployed either on-premise or on the cloud to meet the needs of all companies. Most companies opt for the cloud version of Business Central as it provides great scalability without requiring a large amount of upfront capital. However, companies that already have the in-house servers and capabilities may opt for an on-premise Business Central implementation. Each company should choose the implementation model that best fits their needs.

Complete control of any updates applied
Cloud-based
No upfront cost for servers and associated infrastructure
No ongoing cost for databse and server administration
Automatic upgrades when new features are released
Microsoft guarantees uptime and automatically takes backups to ensure business continuity
