Change Is Hard. Staying Stuck Is Harder.
We get it—navigating change isn’t easy, especially when everything else feels uncertain. But moving from Dynamics NAV to Business Central gives you the tools to adapt: cloud flexibility, stronger security, cost savings, AI-powered support with Copilot, and deep integration with Microsoft 365 and Power Platform. It’s familiar—but built for what’s next.
We were looking for the right solution, something not one-dimensional, as well as the right partner… Sikich implemented a quick, efficient and cost effective roll-out … and did so in less than 12 weeks.

Migrate from Dynamics NAV to Dynamics 365
For years, Microsoft Dynamics NAV was a trusted on-premises ERP solution. But as of January 10, 2023, mainstream support for NAV 2018 officially ended, with extended support only available until 2028. If you’re not paying for extended support, your system may be vulnerable—without critical updates, compliance support, or access to innovation.
Where did Dynamics NAV go?
NAV hasn’t disappeared—it’s evolved. On April 2, 2018, Microsoft introduced Dynamics 365 Business Central, a fully cloud-based ERP built on the same powerful foundation as NAV. It offers the same flexibility and functionality NAV users love, reimagined for today’s cloud-connected world.
Familiar, Yet Built for More
If you’ve used NAV, the move to Business Central will feel familiar—but it’s so much more than a simple interface upgrade. Business Central brings automatic updates, mobile access, and built-in analytics that help your teams work smarter and faster across every department.
Even better, it’s fully connected to the Microsoft ecosystem—so you can extend functionality with tools you already know and trust:
- Microsoft 365 for seamless collaboration in Outlook, Excel, and Teams
- Power Apps and Power Automate to build custom workflows and automate tasks
- Microsoft Copilot, bringing embedded AI across your ERP and business apps to help users work faster, make better decisions, and reduce manual effort
The result? A modern ERP that empowers your team, streamlines your operations, and scales with your business.
