microsoft dynamics crm on premise pricing

At least one large Dynamics CRM partner with whom we spoke reported no experience so far with transitioning customers to Dynamics 365 (On-Premises) via the December 2016 Service Update, though other partners report having worked through some of the decisions with customers already. Real world experience with the first official Dynamics 365 (On-Premises) release seems to be limited at this point. The update offers a range of functional enhancements in areas including mobile tools, the Dynamics 365 App for Outlook, a preview of Relationship Insights, learning paths, relevance search, editable grids, and Office 365 Groups. The December 2016 update for Dynamics 365 applies to the suite’s enterprise-level sales, customer service, field service, and project service automation apps.

Microsoft has provided a new licensing guide (PDF download) explaining the on-premises customer’s licensing options for the future. Partners who have started working with the the new licensing options say the transition to Dynamics 365 allows CRM on-premises customers to stay the course with their current deployment model, but that cloud licensing options now have some clear benefits that they can still buy into. The update adds new capabilities and new licensing decisions for customers. With the arrival of the December 2016 service update, Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2016 on-premises has adopted its new identity as “Dynamics 365 (On-Premises)”.
