Our add-on is designed to work interchangeably and seamlessly with NAV's existing Links system, no conversion is necessary. Removing it is just as easy as adding it so give it a try, see how it can save you time and money! Best of all, if you decide you're not ready to commit, you can still use it as a scaled-down, free version!

Following in NAV's footsteps, we give our customers the flexibility to customize their solution to fit their particular needs. Edit our FactBox to add more abilities or to limit some. Customers will need to have the code customization license from Microsoft or they can have it customized through their partners. Don't want to spend more on customizations? Reach out to our development department with your needs. If we deem the customization to be useful to our customers, we will make the change and give it out to you and everyone who has a current maintenance plan, free of charge!
