Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Sandbox Tier 2 environment?
A Sandbox Tier 2 environment is a testing instance of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Operations that closely mirrors the production environment. Tier 2 typically offers more advanced capabilities and is suitable for more complex testing scenarios like acceptance testing.
Who should use this annual subscription?
This subscription is ideal for businesses that regularly implement changes, customizations, or updates to their Dynamics 365 Operations and require a dedicated environment for thorough standard acceptance testing throughout the year.
How does this differ from a development sandbox?
