What is Business Ready Licensing? • Improved way to organize the features of Microsoft Dynamics products. • Licensing emphasizes number of users rather than modules. • Gives existing clients access to broad range of modules and tools which formerly were inaccessible due to cost per module. • Module-Based Licensing (the old way) was complicated because both users and modules were licensed separately.
