The mid-range ERP market will be dominated by SaaS over the next few years including Microsoft Dynamics NAV Cloud as worldwide spend on SaaS is expected to grow by 24-percent over the next four years, according to a presentation at Microsoft Dynamics NAV Directions 2015.
NAV Directions is one of the biggest NAV events of the year and it just kicked off this past weekend. The cloud at NAV Directions 2015 will continue to be a major topic of discussion.
The presentation at Directions said that SaaS spend will grow most dramatically among businesses with 10 to 99 employees in the coming years for a 24-percent growth rate totaling nearly $12 million. You can learn more about NAV and SaaS on the Dynamics NAV Cloud Page.

You can find several resources with information on hosted Dynamics upgrades that require no maintenance or additional cost to the user on the Dynamics Upgrade page.
Installable
Moving forward there will be a new way to change how Dynamics NAV appears and behaves –without directly altering source resources and it will be distributed as a preconfigured self-contained package.
