Bridge to the Cloud 3 (BTC3)
Moving from Dynamics NAV or GP to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central with Bridge to the Cloud 3
For many organisations still running Microsoft Dynamics NAV or Microsoft Dynamics GP, the question is no longer if they will move to the cloud—but how and when to do it effectively.
As support for legacy ERP platforms continues to diminish and businesses seek greater agility, automation, and AI-driven insights, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central has become the natural next step. To help organisations modernise their ERP environment while reducing migration costs, Microsoft has introduced the Bridge to the Cloud 3 (BTC3) promotion.
Please see the key dates for both applications:
- Dynamics NAV 2018 – Extended Support ends on 11 January 2028
- Dynamics GP – Product Support ends on 31 December 2029, with Security Updates available until 30 April 2031
Why Move from NAV or GP to Business Central?
Microsoft Dynamics NAV and GP have supported organisations for many years. As businesses grow and evolve, many are choosing to move to a modern cloud ERP solution that removes technology barriers, improves efficiency, delivers better business insights and supports future growth.
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central provides a flexible, scalable platform designed to help organisations work smarter and adapt to changing business needs.
Key benefits include:
- Seamless integration with Microsoft 365
- Real-time reporting and business insights
- Automation of manual and repetitive processes
- Enhanced security and compliance
- Scalability as your business grows
- AI-powered capabilities through Microsoft Copilot
For many organisations, migrating to Business Central is also an opportunity to simplify processes, reduce complexity, and modernise the way they work.
What is Bridge to the Cloud 3?
Bridge to the Cloud 3 (BTC3) is Microsoft’s migration programme designed to help eligible Dynamics NAV and Dynamics GP customers move to Business Central Online.
BTC3 helps reduce the cost and risk of migration by allowing organisations to continue using their existing ERP system while transitioning to the cloud.
Key BTC3 offer terms:
- Dates: 1 January 2026 – 31 December 2027
- Promotion duration: 3-year non-cancellable term from enrolment
- Discount: 30% off standard Dynamics 365 online pricing
- Eligibility: Existing Dynamics on-premises customers (including NAV and GP) with active Enhancement Plan
- Channel: Must be purchased through a Microsoft partner (CSP / NCE model)
- Post-term pricing: Standard pricing applies after the 3-year period
With BTC3, organisations can move to Business Central at a pace that suits their business while maintaining day-to-day operations.
While Business Central and BTC3 provide a compelling opportunity, the success of any migration depends on having the right strategy, expertise, and support in place throughout the journey. The promotion is available for a limited time and subject to eligibility.
