Microsoft 365 and Dynamics 365 SaaS: This will apply in the future.

Microsoft has announced price adjustments for SaaS solutions effective April 1, 2025.

The prices for Microsoft 365 / Dynamics 365 SaaS licenses - including Dynamics 365 Business Central - will be increased by 5% for the annual subscription with monthly payment and for the 3-year subscription with monthly payment as of April 1, 2025.

The adjustments also apply to Swiss francs and US dollars.

Power BI

  • Power BI Pro: The prices for a subscription with an annual term and annual payment method will be increased by approx. 40%.
    Users of an annual subscription with a monthly payment method must expect an additional price increase of 5%.
  • Power BI Premium: The prices for a subscription with an annual term and annual payment method will be increased by approx. 20%.
    Users of an annual subscription with monthly payment must expect an additional 5% surcharge.
  • If you use Power BI as part of the Microsoft 365 E5 or Office 365 E5 licenses, the above price adjustments will have no effect on you.

Please note that the announced price increases will only take effect after your current subscriptions expire, provided this is after April 1, 2025.

The change will apply to these Microsoft products from April 1, 2025:

  • Microsoft 365
  • Office 365
  • Enterprise Mobility + Security
  • Windows 365
  • Microsoft Dynamics 365 (including Business Central)

Until now, only the duration of the subscription was decisive for the price. From April 1, 2025, the payment method will also determine the price. We therefore recommend that you check your contracts in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center so that you can switch to the annual payment method at the next renewal.

On-premises licensing: What's next?

For new customers, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central will no longer be available for purchase on-premises from April 1, 2025. Why has Microsoft decided to take this step? With this development, Microsoft is taking another big step away from the traditional purchase model towards rental licenses with a cloud focus.

However, existing Yaveon customers with an ongoing enhancement (or maintenance) plan will still be able to add users, objects or modules to their existing version of Yaveon, for example.

Yaveon recommends: This is what you should do now.

With the abolition of purchase licenses for new customers from 2025, Microsoft is now also taking action on the licensing side after many major technical steps towards the cloud.

Yaveon customers will of course still be able to use and extend their existing on-premises license. This is guaranteed by an active enhancement (or maintenance) plan.

Nevertheless, you can make the leap to the cloud with the next update. We will be happy to advise you on your individual path to a current Business Central version.

The biggest benefits:

  1. Your solution runs on the secure systems in the Microsoft data centers.
  2. You benefit from continuous further developments, functional enhancements and innovations from Microsoft.
  3. You are future-proof.
