Why Shyphan

Why Nigerian businesses choose Shyphan for Dynamics 365

Independent consultants who implement Dynamics 365 and also Zoho and Odoo, so the advice is not tied to one licence.

Platform-neutral advice

We implement Dynamics 365, Zoho and Odoo. If Dynamics is the wrong fit for your size or budget, we say so before you buy licences.

Fixed quote in NGN

Scope, timeline and price agreed in writing after a free discovery call. Change requests are quoted, never absorbed into surprise invoices.

Compliance built in

Local tax, e-invoicing, payroll inputs and data-protection rules are configured and tested before go-live, not patched afterwards.

Seven offices, one bench

Project leadership in your time zone and a shared engineering centre, with on-site workshops in Lagos when the project justifies it.

Integration depth

Dataverse, Power Automate, Logic Apps and custom APIs to connect Dynamics to whatever you already run.

Support after go-live

Named consultants, SLAs and release-wave testing so the system keeps working through every Microsoft update.

How it works

Five steps from first call to go-live

Fixed scope, fortnightly demonstrations and no surprises at cutover.

Discovery & fit

A free call, then a short paid discovery if needed: processes, data, users and whether Dynamics 365, Zoho or Odoo is the right answer.

Solution design

Apps, licences, entities, security roles, integrations, localisation and a written scope with a fixed price in NGN.

Configure & build

Environments, configuration, customisations, Power Automate flows and integrations, demonstrated every two weeks.

Migrate & test

Cleansed master data and opening balances loaded, user acceptance testing on real scenarios, FIRS verified end to end.

Go-live & hyper-care

Cutover, role-based training, 30 days of hyper-care and hand-over to a monthly support plan.

Pricing

What Dynamics 365 costs in Nigeria

Microsoft list prices in USD as published for 2025; Microsoft or a Cloud Solution Provider bills licences directly and local currency pricing may differ. Implementation is a separate fixed quote from Shyphan in NGN.

Licence	List price	What it covers
Dynamics 365 Sales Professional	USD 65 / user / month	Core CRM: leads, opportunities, quotes, forecasting
Dynamics 365 Sales Enterprise	USD 105 / user / month	Full sales automation, AI insights, Copilot
Dynamics 365 Customer Service Enterprise	USD 105 / user / month	Cases, SLAs, knowledge base, omnichannel add-ons
Business Central Essentials	USD 70 / user / month	Finance, sales, purchasing, inventory, projects
Business Central Premium	USD 100 / user / month	Essentials plus manufacturing and service management
Team Members	USD 8 / user / month	Read access and light tasks across apps

Sales or Customer Service, 5-15 users

Implementation typically USD 8,000 to 25,000 (NGN equivalent quoted fixed): discovery, configuration, data migration, Outlook and Teams set-up, training and hyper-care over 6 to 10 weeks.

Business Central, single entity

Implementation typically USD 20,000 to 60,000: chart of accounts, FIRS, migration of opening balances and masters, inventory and reporting over 10 to 20 weeks.

Multi-entity or with integrations

Scoped individually. Each additional entity, integration, localisation or custom Power App is priced as its own line so you can see what drives the total.

Dynamics vs Zoho vs Odoo

When we recommend Dynamics 365, and when we do not

We are a Zoho Premium Partner and an Official Odoo Partner as well as Dynamics 365 consultants, and we recommend by fit. Dynamics 365 wins when you are already standardised on Microsoft 365 and Azure, need Business Central or Finance for multi-entity accounting, or have enterprise security and Power Platform requirements. Zoho usually wins for Nigerian SMEs on cost per user and speed to value across CRM, books, HR and helpdesk. Odoo wins when operations, inventory or manufacturing lead and open source matters. We will put that in writing after the discovery call, including the option not to proceed.
