Microsoft will make generally available its latest release of its Dynamics NAV ERP product later this month.
Microsoft announced on October 7 that Dynamics NAV 2013 R2 will be generally available in October 2013.
Update: Another Microsoft blog post claims that Dynamics NAV 2013 R2 is generally available as of today, October 7. And this post also says NAV 2013 R2 has shipped and is available for download.
Dynamics NAV is one of four different ERP suites that Microsoft offers; NAV is focused largely on the small/midsize business market.
What's new in the NAV 2013 R2 release? Here's a partial list of features from a new Microsoft blog post on the topic:
Microsoft made Dynamics NAV 2013 available as an Azure hosted offering via its hosting partners earlier this summer. With the R2 release, Microsoft will support multitenant deployments and is providing new tools for supporting large-scale hosting of Dynamics NAV.
Microsoft also offers its Dynamics GP 2013 ERP product in Azure-hosted form. Company officials have said they also plan to offer Dynamcs SL and Dynamics AX as Azure-hosted offerings via partners at some point in the future.
