Ax7 on premise installation?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

Hi, 

I am newcomer to AX 7 so please forgive the basic questions.

I recently defered the installation of AX 2012 in favor of the newer and more exciting looking functionality of Ax7.

My reseller advised me to wait for the "on-premise" version as opposed to the cloud hosted version due to:

1. Reliability of cloud service (I'm outside the USA, currently in the middle east)

2.  The cloud version was to be used only out of the box - and is not as customizable as the on-premise version.

So I've waited patiently but without any updates from my reseller for almost 9 months.

Today, I decided to contact Microsoft directly and ask them for an update and the Sales support informed me that MS were NOT planning to release any on premise version of AX7!

Can anyone confirm if this is the case, as I feel I've been sold down the river, with no answers.

regards,

    You've got a plenty of wrong information.

    There will be an on-premises version of AX (Dynamics 365); I would expect some details quite soon. (But one pre-requisite, Azure Stack, is expected only in the middle of next year).

    The cloud version of fully customizable; the on-promises one will likely by completely identical. The reseller has no idea.

    Regarding reliability, review SLA you get from Microsoft. I don't think it's a problem; and you get features (such as geo-replication) that you can rarely see with on-premise installations. It doesn't mean that Azure-hosted solution don't have their problems, but I would be rather concerned about reliability of my internet provider than of Azure. :-)

    Hi MM5K,

    There will be some announcements from Microsoft during the AXUG Summit (11-14 October). Watch out for them as these will also be blogged.
