Acumatica Implementation

Hello Community members,

Hope you all are doing well. I would like to get some of my confusions clarified regarding implementation and go-live for a customer.

I would like to know if it is possible to get a live production instance installed over a server if the customer doesn't want to get it implemented by any Acumatica partners. I know it is better to go with Acumatica Partners but is this exception possible?

If yes, please let me know how can a customer achieve it. As I have seen many of the community members are themselves Acumatica customers, so was wondering if they have implemented their systems without any partners.

Also, my other confusion is related to the demo instance. I have seen whenever we create a new tenant, not in the production instance, the complete tenant is like a vanilla environment. What if the customer opts for such a vanilla environment instead of going with the licenses. This is the scenario where the customer doesn't look for any customisations, also they aren't looking for any advance features.

Kindly guide me out for these cases. Also, feel free to inbox me with your experiences, guidance and suggestions.

Thank you in Advance.
