Microsoft has been fielding many concerns from existing customers and prospects about what this change will mean to their software investments. Microsoft has not released specifics on the pricing details and has stated that a licensing guide will be published as “soon as they can.” Due to partner feedback regarding the complexity of the new pricing plan, Microsoft may be making some adjustments. A major downfall of this new pricing model is that it will be more difficult to estimate and calculate licensing costs. PowerApps and Flow will be included for Dynamics 365 users through “seeded” licenses.Īlthough customers will not have to pay for capabilities they don’t need, Microsoft anticipates that most users will experience a ten percent price increase. Deals that close prior to October 1, 2019, however, should use the existing “plans and apps” model. Although the new pricing model is on a per-app basis, the plan still allows for bundling multiple apps. This way, customers don’t get stuck paying for capabilities they don’t need or use. The image above indicates that the pricing would be $95 for the base license, plus $20 for each attach license.Ĭustomers will now be able to buy the apps they need as opposed to buying the whole plan. When multiple Business Applications are purchases, the Base license must be the higher priced license.įor example, a customer could buy a Sales Customer Engagement license, and add additional functions such as Field Service for an additional fee.Attach licenses may only be assigned to a user with a prerequisite Base license.Each user may only have one Base license, but they may have as many Attach licenses as needed.Base and Attach licenses are identical in their core capabilities.A base license must first be purchased.Microsoft feels that this move from “one-size-fits-all” Dynamics 365 licensing plans will focus on better providing customers with the specific Dynamics 365 applications that meet their organization’s unique needs. These “attach licenses” will be heavily discounted. A “base license” will be sold with “attach licenses” available. Instead customers will choose from an ala carte licensing plan. Microsoft revealed at the conference that as of October 1, 2019, Dynamics plan style licenses will no longer be available to subscribers. Big Dynamics 365 Pricing changes were announced at the conference.

Microsoft’s dedication to their mission of empowering every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more is evident. The 4 day conference kicked off with a corenote livestream from Gavriella Schuster, Corporate VP of Microsoft’s One Commercial Partner Organization, and Judson Althoff, executive VP of Microsoft’s Worldwide Commercial Business.
