TL;DR

Dynaway is the EAM solution that lives inside Dynamics 365. Founded in 2002 in Reykjavik, Iceland, the company bet everything on native Microsoft integration—and for organizations already running D365 Finance & Operations or Business Central, that bet pays off. No middleware, no API connectors breaking at 2 AM, no duplicate data entry. If you're not on Dynamics 365, Dynaway isn't for you. Simple as that.

What is Dynaway?

EAM That Lives Inside Dynamics 365

Most EAM and CMMS tools sit alongside your ERP. They sync data through APIs, connectors, or middleware—and anyone who has managed those integrations knows the reality. Data mismatches. Sync failures. Duplicate records. Two different systems telling two different stories about the same asset.

Dynaway took a different approach. Founded in 2002 in Reykjavik, Iceland, the company built its entire EAM platform natively inside Microsoft Dynamics 365. Not connected to D365. Not integrated with D365. Inside D365. Maintenance technicians work in the same environment as finance, procurement, and inventory teams. One database. One security model. One set of records.

That architectural decision defines everything about the product. If your organization runs Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations or Business Central, Dynaway eliminates the integration headaches that plague every other CMMS-plus-ERP combination.

What Native Integration Actually Means

When a technician closes a work order in Dynaway, the labor cost posts to the general ledger automatically. Parts consumed from inventory adjust stock levels in D365 in real time. Purchase requisitions for spare parts flow through the same procurement workflow as every other purchase in the organization. There's no batch sync at midnight, no CSV imports, no reconciliation spreadsheet.

Asset records in Dynaway are D365 fixed asset records. Depreciation calculations, capital vs. expense decisions, and asset retirement all happen within the same system. Finance teams don't need a separate report—they query the same database the maintenance team uses.

Maintenance Capabilities

Work order management handles standard and complex scenarios. Multi-step work orders with task checklists, labor tracking by technician and trade, and parts consumption from D365 inventory. Preventive maintenance scheduling supports time-based and counter-based triggers with automatic work order generation.

The mobile app lets field technicians view assignments, update work orders, scan assets, and log time from phones or tablets. It works offline and syncs when connectivity returns—important for facilities and field service teams in areas with spotty coverage.

Where It Falls Short

If you don't run Dynamics 365, stop here. Dynaway requires D365 as its foundation. There's no standalone version.

The platform assumes D365 expertise. Your IT team (or your Microsoft partner) needs to be comfortable with D365 administration. Dynaway configuration happens inside the D365 environment, not through a separate admin panel. Organizations without D365 skills will need consulting support.

Pricing isn't published and requires engagement with Dynaway or a Microsoft partner. Market intelligence suggests $30-70 per user per month, but actual costs depend on your D365 licensing and deployment.

The Right Choice For

Organizations already running Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations or Business Central that need asset management and maintenance without adding another system. Manufacturing companies, utilities, property management firms, and any organization tired of maintaining ERP-CMMS integrations.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Native D365 integration means zero middleware, zero sync issues, and one source of truth across maintenance and finance
  • Work order costs post directly to the general ledger—no reconciliation needed
  • Mobile app works offline and syncs when connectivity returns, critical for field teams
  • Asset records are D365 fixed asset records with built-in depreciation and lifecycle tracking
  • Procurement for spare parts flows through existing D365 purchasing workflows

Cons

  • Requires Dynamics 365 as foundation—no standalone version available for non-D365 organizations
  • Configuration demands D365 administration expertise—you need skilled internal IT or a Microsoft partner
  • Pricing is opaque and tied to D365 licensing, making budgeting difficult upfront
  • Smaller company (51-200 employees) compared to major EAM vendors, which limits support capacity
  • Feature set is narrower than dedicated EAM platforms like IBM Maximo or SAP PM for very complex industrial environments

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, absolutely. Dynaway is built natively inside Dynamics 365 and cannot run without it. You need either D365 Finance & Operations or D365 Business Central as the foundation. If your organization doesn't use Dynamics 365, Dynaway is not an option—look at standalone CMMS or EAM platforms instead.

Dynaway doesn't publish pricing. You need to engage with Dynaway directly or through a Microsoft partner for a quote. Market data suggests pricing around $30-70 per user per month, but actual costs depend heavily on your existing D365 licensing tier and user count. Implementation and consulting costs are additional.
