Microsoft announces Dynamics® 365 at WPC

In Microsoft's World Partner Conference (WPC), Microsoft released project Madeira, a new platform that looks a little bit like a simplified mix of Office 365 and the basic modules of Microsoft Dynamics® NAV. Although this is something that is an exciting prospect, one of the big issues that people have had in general is understanding the difference between all of the Dynamics products. Let's take a look.

What is Microsoft Dynamics 365?

Microsoft Dynamics 365 is an online-only business software solution. This is made up of two offerings:

Dynamics 365 Business Edition: This is Project Madeira (essentially Dynamics NAV and Office 365 fully integrated), aimed at small businesses that need a limited and off-the-shelf solution. Project Madeira is the code name for a new cloud offering hosted by Microsoft inside Office 365. The solution is based on Microsoft Dynamics NAV. Some of its features are as follows:

Laura Nicolàs Lorente

Laura Nicols Lorente started working with Dynamics NAV back in 2005, first in the support department, mostly solving functional issues and doubts. She soon jumped to full deployment: consulting, analysis, development, implementation, migration, training, and support. Right at the beginning, she realized that it was very important for a Dynamics NAV consultant to have a deep knowledge of business workflows. Technical skills are just not enough. So she started training herself in accounting, taxation, supply chain, logistics, and so on. She discovered a whole new world and found it very interesting. After having enough consultancy experience, she got to manage the first project on her own. And then, she realized that even tech and business knowledge is not enough; she also needed management skills. So, after reading different management books and trying different approaches on the projects she worked on, she decided to deepen her knowledge by taking a master's degree in project management. She is now transitioning to agile management and agile development for better project success. She continues her training in the three areas (tech, business workflows, and management) whenever she gets a chance to. The Web is a huge source of inspiration for her: groups, forums, blogs, books, and so on. She also contributes by sharing her knowledge and experience with the Spanish Dynamics NAV community. Laura is also a coauthor of the book Implementing Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013, which had really good comments coming from different Dynamics NAV experts.
