Microsoft Dynamics NAV Offers Update: Buy One License, Get Two More Free

Last year, Concentrix TSG ran a promotion to help UK businesses, and in particular smaller businesses, get started with Microsoft Dynamics NAV. The offer, which we ran in association with Microsoft, gave the chance for companies and organizations that hadn’t used Microsoft Dynamics NAV before to buy three licenses of this leading ERP solution for just one UK pound (£1).

Occasionally we do come across businesses or individuals that seem to have a perception that Microsoft Dynamics NAV is just for larger organizations. While the choice of accounts and ERP software always comes down to your business requirements (your aims, objectives, processes and business strategy), the perception that Microsoft Dynamics NAV is just for larger businesses is incorrect.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV is an extremely flexible ERP product that is designed for a wide range of different sizes of organizations and different business process complexities. This flexibility means that it’s often a great fit for small and medium sized businesses, and at Concentrix TSG we can give you examples of where we’ve effectively and successfully deployed it in companies with less than five users.

Concentrix TSG had a great deal of interest in the three licenses for a pound offer and it wasn’t surprising that a number of companies took us up on it. The feedback from our clients on both the offer and the product has been great and has helped a number of organizations get started with Microsoft Dynamics NAV. Unfortunately, as we’re a business as well, so we couldn’t continue that level of discount for long. The offer ran throughout the autumn of 2010 and ended promptly on 23rd December.

Despite finishing a few months ago, we still get enquiries about the three for a pound offer (word must have got around!). We also had a few clients that for various reasons couldn’t commit by the deadline and just missed out. So, here’s a new offer. Until June 23rd 2011, if you’re a UK business that hasn’t used Microsoft Dynamics NAV before, you can buy one user license of the product, and we’ll give you up to two more for no extra cost. This reduces licensing costs on larger projects, and again helps smaller organizations get started with the product. Whether you choose one or two additional licenses is entirely your choice; whatever is right for your business. We're also discounting our implementation and support services.

Like any ERP solution, Microsoft Dynamics NAV has its own features, strengths and benefits. But just because it’s a great fit for many small businesses doesn’t automatically mean it’s the right choice for everyone. Sometimes a solution such as Sage 200 may be more suited to your requirements, so you should always talk your options through with an independent business management software specialist (like Concentrix TSG!).

There’s more information on how you can get your free licenses for Microsoft Dynamics NAV on the Concentrix TSG website, or to find out more, please don’t hesitate to contact Concentrix TSG direct.
