If your company wants to enhance digital maturity, and you are not a local business with few dozens of employees, and you do expect rapid growth in the next couple of years – there is no real benefit of selecting Business Central over Finance & Operations. F&OBC total license price factor change is shown as an orange line on a graph below. So, when the number of users goes above 20, the total price difference between Finance & Operations and Business Central becomes lower than 2 times.

In fact, what we see in customer’s implementations, most users just need a few functions in the system to perform their daily job. So, if 20 full users are enough, the price for Finance & Operations is twice higher than for Business Central.īut the Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations platform has so-called “Activity user” licenses, which cost 50$ per user/month, providing less capabilities than full-user licenses, and designed for financial clerks, shop-floor workers, field engineers, warehouse workers who just need to perform one specific function in the system. The average price for Finance & Operations features is between 180-210$, depending on features required by the user.įor 20 users, in the same example, we might need 10 Supply Chain Management and 10 Supply Chain Management + Finance (add-on) licenses. You cannot buy less licenses to deploy the system.

It starts with 20 full-user licenses, as a minimum purchase requirement. But rather consulting company brand, market it operates in, industry experience and other product-agnostic factors. They don’t randomly try every feature before it fits the business.Ĭonsulting hour rate price doesn’t depend on the product you’ve selected. Remember: If the scope of ERP implementation is similar, implementation costs for both Finance & Operations and Business Central should be the same.And, theoretically, slightly less for Finance & Operations because it has more off-the-shelf features which you might not need to build on a project, compared to Business Central.įor experienced Dynamics 365 consultants, it doesn’t matter how many features ERP has overall to quickly configure only the features you need. These factors impact “average cost” statistics. The bigger the scope > the more people are involved > the more robust implementation approach is used to handle this. By “implementation scope” I mean what business processes and functions you want to automate.įrom a statistical point of view, Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations is more capable, so project scope is typically bigger, because customers, obviously, want to utilize more off-the-shelf features.

In terms of implementation cost – it is only a SCOPE that really matters.
