Dynamics 365—How Much Does It Cost?

You might well be drawn to its main functions, but the price of integrating a new software program, like Dynamics 365, into your business is always the most important factor. How does pricing work? Is it priced per module, per user or per month? Can you just pick the modules you want or do you have to do opt for a plan that includes several different modules?

Don’t worry, you can do both!

Of course, module pricing is subject to change. Visit Microsoft’s website for up-to-date information about pricing.
