Dynamics 365 Transition – Part 1

As we approach closer to the transition from Dynamics CRM to Dynamics 365, I want to provide more information as to what you can expect as a Dynamics CRM customer.

If you are a client of ours, we will be hosting an informational webinar the 2nd week of November and you will receive an invitation. This webinar will provide general information, transition pricing, and options. After the webinar, we will have scheduled one-on-one discussions with the appropriate folks in your company to discuss your specific company options and our recommendations. Nothing needs to be done soon, although you can take advantage of these after Nov 1st if it makes sense for your business. Everything else will wait until your current subscription date renewal.

Dynamics 365 and the CRM Customer

There is no better time to be a Dynamics customer than right now.

You may have heard by now that Microsoft took the wraps off their new Dynamics 365 initiative. No more Dynamics CRM, it is now Dynamics 365. With all the hype (deserved, I think) and additional functionality of Dynamics 365, combined with what would be the regular Dynamics CRM Online fall release cadence, I want to make sure our customers get the info they need.

First, if you are a current customer of ours reading this, take a deep breath. Please know we will be contacting you directly to schedule a road map discussion and provide you with your best options. Nothing has to be done right away and there are several options for you to choose from with different timelines. Deep breath, there is a ton of great new functionality coming your way. (more…)

Here Comes Dynamics 365

What an exciting time to be in our industry!

I have been involved in the technology arena since 1985 when I was tasked with putting a restaurant inventory management system and PC together (2 – 5 1/4 inch floppy drives on that baby!) and have been swimming for the last 15 years in the Microsoft channel partner stream. I was part of the Beta version 1 team when Microsoft was releasing their CRM product and been a part of the full Dynamics CRM journey that brought us to today. (more…)
