As of November 1st, the new D365 FINANCE licensing situation is expected to have a significant economic impact by regularizing the types of licenses and access for all users utilizing the system.
With the new version of D365 FINANCE, it is now possible to contract licenses simultaneously with more than one Partner, meaning it is not necessary to wait for the annual expiration of contracted licenses to take action. Expansions and optimizations can be made to the existing installation, either with the current Partner or an additional Partner simultaneously. Each will be responsible for managing and billing the licenses they have contracted.
“Anticipate the licensing change and acquire your new licenses advantageously and efficiently.”
At REVERTIS, we offer you the possibility to carry out an audit of your current license allocation and present several optimized resulting scenarios to guide you in your decision-making process. Some scenarios consider the possibility of developing external APPs for users performing very specific tasks, while others propose continuing to access the D365 environment to carry out their functions. Certain options may seem advantageous in the short term, but when analyzed over three to five years, the outlook can be very different. Our analysis also takes into account whether the client is up to date with the AX BREP.
For each potential resulting model, we offer highly competitive licensing costs, along with annual bonuses and other benefits derived from contracting your D365 licenses through our services.
“Hire our audit service and choose the best scenario for executing your processes.”
Below are the four main reasons to contract your licenses with REVERTIS.
Support Aspect
Clients who contract D365 FINANCE licenses with REVERTIS have the option to hire REVERTIS support for their D365 FINANCE installation. Our support is provided “in-house” with our own staff. REVERTIS becomes a member of your IT team and frees you from user support. All actions are reported in our ticketing system, allowing us to analyze support cases by type, department, user, etc. This enables us to proactively prevent recurring issues and to prepare user training on topics that generate the most difficulties.
Pricing Aspect
Specifically, we will offer you the best optimized scenario in terms of unit costs for all your licenses, along with an annual bonus based on the number of licenses or the resulting economic value.
We provide a pricing scale and an annual discount as a year-end bonus, based on the total value of ALL your Microsoft licenses contracted with us.
This means we will consider not only D365 licenses but also any other Microsoft family license, such as M365, Power BI, Sales, Field Services, etc.
“Take advantage of our commercial conditions and the bonuses that contracting all your Microsoft licenses with REVERTIS can offer you.”
Ultimately, all licenses contracted with REVERTIS will be added to the evaluation of the annual amount to be paid. The higher the annual amount, the greater the bonus received at year-end.
Licensing Distribution Aspect
At REVERTIS, we have not waited for this restrictive change in D365 Finance licensing to start adjusting user permissions. We have always worked with our clients by creating security roles and tailoring them to user profiles. Now more than ever, this gives us an advantage.
We know how to adjust permissions so that users have the most cost-effective license possible. Assigning a full base license to all users is not the solution.
We have developed a working methodology that allows us to make adjustments quickly, avoiding surprises when the system is deployed across the entire company.
In some cases, a simple change in work methodology enables a large group of users to perform their tasks with an Operation-Activity license instead of Full Access.
External App Development Aspect
Frequently, we find in D365 implementations certain groups of users who perform only a few very specific tasks.
In some cases, these tasks require a “Full Access” license simply because they need to access or use a particular system function that requires this type of access.
For these cases, we evaluate the possibility of developing these functions externally through an APP integrated with D365, thus reducing the licensing costs required for these users in D365.
These actions are very specific and must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
In any case, REVERTIS has its own APP development methodology based on Angular technology that allows these groups of users to work as if they were inside D365, although they are not actually accessing it, thus avoiding D365 license consumption.
A clear example is our sales POS application, which allows traditional sales and customer tracking tasks fully integrated into D365, without the need for direct access to the application.
“With proprietary applications such as our POS developed with Angular technology and fully integrated into D365, companies like Fotoprix have saved more than 400 D365 user licenses.”
In conclusion, REVERTIS invites companies to anticipate changes and review their current licensing situation to avoid overcosts and ensure compliance with Microsoft’s new policies.
Our proposal combines experience, specialized tools, and an efficiency-focused approach, making it a key business opportunity to optimize the use of D365 FINANCE.
