Standard: The most typical implementation, with customization specific to
your business, integration with other systems and software, and a
moderate number of users, sites, and transactions
Enterprise: Implementation encompasses multiple sites and countries,
involving many customizations, extensive integration with other systems,
complicated infrastructure, multiple languages, and a large number of
users, and transactions, likely to be deployed over a number of releases
Rapid: A simple implementation, with little or no customization, minimal
integration with other systems, and relatively small numbers of users, sites,
and transactions
Agile: Represents a flexible, iterative, and collaborative approach to
implement Microsoft Dynamics solutions at a single site requiring specific
features, significant development, and moderate-to-complex
customizations
