Microsoft Dynamics NAV (Navision)
Support, Upgrade, & Migration Services for Navision
Dynamics NAV (Navision) served mid-sized businesses well for years, but since Microsoft ended mainstream support in 2023, many growing companies are upgrading to Dynamics 365 F&O, or F&SCM.
This modern alternative delivers everything NAV offered plus cloud flexibility, advanced analytics, and true enterprise scalability — all in one powerful platform.
What Is Microsoft Dynamics NAV?
Note: Extended support is available until January 2028 for Dynamics NAV 2018. However, with 2028 soon approaching, many users are upgrading to Dynamics 365 for its modern features and cloud benefits.

When Will Navision Lose Manufacturer Support?
Microsoft Dynamics Navision (NAV) will lose manufacturer support in stages. Mainstream support for all versions ended in January 2023. Extended support, which includes only security updates, will continue until January 2028.
After this date, NAV will no longer receive any updates or support from Microsoft. To ensure your business remains supported and secure, consider upgrading to Dynamics 365 Business Central or D365 F&SCM if you require enterprise-level functionalities.
Why Upgrade to Dynamics Business Central or D365?
Leverage advanced features, better scalability, and the benefits of a cloud-based ERP by upgrading to BC or Dynamics 365 F&SCM. Business Central is perfect for SMBs, offering cloud-powered flexibility and seamless Microsoft integration to drive growth, while F&SCM is built for enterprises, delivering advanced financial and supply chain tools with AI-driven insights.
Both options provide regular updates, top-tier security, and cost efficiency – so that your business remains agile and competitive.
