With Microsoft Dynamics Perpetual Licensing, customers license the ERP Solution functionality, and access to that functionality is secured by licensing users.
Subscription Licensing for Microsoft Dynamics NAV is designed to help keep the upfront cost to a minimum through a “per user per month” licensing fee. This helps small and midsize businesses get started with a low initial cost while leveraging the built-in functionality and rapid start tools.
Both licensing models are designed to simplify the purchase process. Customers have the choice of two concurrent-user types, Limited User and Full User, and the option to give those users access to advanced functionality through the “Extended Pack.”
