Methodology

How we calculate

Licenses — official Microsoft prices (from November 2025): Essentials $80, Premium $110, Team Member $8, Device $45 per user per month. All full users in one environment must share the same license type — so if even one person needs manufacturing, everyone moves to Premium.

Implementation — the industry rule of thumb: a project budget typically equals 1.5–2.5× the annual license cost and depends on process complexity, the amount of AL development, the number of integrations and the quality of data in the legacy system. The calculator maps your scenario to typical market budgets:

Project typeBudgetDurationScope
Quick-start$15,000–30,0006–10 weeksFinance + basic sales
Standard$35,000–70,0003–4 monthsFinance + warehouse + purchasing + integrations
Extended$70,000–150,0004–6 monthsManufacturing + custom logic + 5+ integrations
1C/BAS migration+$5,000–15,000+2–4 weeksData transfer, structure mapping

Not included in the estimate: post-go-live support subscription (SLA), Power BI Pro and AppSource solutions — we scope those separately for your scenario. Typical implementations are also available as fixed monthly packages.
