Featured Reviews

Arun Srivastav - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to use and integrates well with emails, WhatsApp, and SMS gateways
The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is the campaign feature. The solution's campaign feature allows you to collate a group of customers and the frequency of email notifications sent to them. You can put an advertising budget for a series of customers, whereby high net-worth individuals will be marketed for high-end products. Low-end customers will be in a different campaign. So, we run campaigns on different sectors of customers. One of the solution's good features is integration because it directly integrates with Microsoft tools. Microsoft Office 365 and Microsoft Teams are built into it. The solution gives a varied network of text and email gateways, which are already integrated and come with the package.

Streamlines collaboration across teams and has a straightforward setup process
The platform initiates a series of processes to complete the sale, which may involve ordering equipment, providing services, and tracking necessary activities. The feature that has been most effective in improving sales performance is its alignment with the ordering team. Compared to my experience working with HubSpot, which excelled in presales and marketing but lacked integration with ERP and post-sales processes, NetSuite CRM+ stands out for its ability to streamline collaboration and information sharing across teams. It facilitates post-sales engagement by effectively providing visibility into the bill of materials and assigning responsibilities. The platform is not highly customizable like Salesforce. However, it offers sufficient flexibility for our requirements. I can easily create different views and reports and add widgets to my home screen as needed. I rate it an eight out of ten.

"NetSuite CRM+ helps us provide customer support and track schedules for field service."
"The feature that has been most effective in improving sales performance is its alignment with the ordering team."
 

Cons

"We would like to see the tech support for this product improved, at present we are frequently waiting for a couple of days before we receive any response."
"The overall price of Microsoft Dynamics CRM could improve."
"We had to do some customizations on top and it got a bit cumbersome."
"I am happy with it. If anything, its interface could be improved."
"The UI/UX needs improvement as it is not intuitive from day one."
"It lacks to provide a more detailed profile of the customer, which would have been better and more useful."
"The mobile side of the product doesn't look that great right now."
"It could be less complicated for smaller organizations."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating AI functionality to provide intuitive assistance."

"What could be improved in NetSuite CRM+ is its UI, because it's ugly. When you compare it to the Salesforce UI, the UI in Salesforce, particularly its reporting, looks better."
"NetSuite's field service automation should be updated. We should be able to fully automate the assignment of service orders to technicians."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is open source and is free. However, it does require a Dynamics 365 subscription."
"The cost varies on multiple factors including customization and the number of users."
"The solution is expensive."
"Microsoft often encourages customers to commit to multi-year enterprise-level agreements, such as three or five-year deals with a minimum commitment of, for example, $200,000 dollars. However, in order to acquire more customers, I believe Microsoft should offer this same rate for one-year commitments for customers who want to experience it."
"Licensing fees are paid on a monthly basis."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is an expensive solution. However, most good CRMs are expensive."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is slightly cheaper than Salesforce today. Pricing for the solution is pretty aggressive in the market."
"The price of the solution is good but could be cheaper."
"Compared to other tools, you have to pay for the NetSuite CRM+ module itself. You will pay a recurring fee regardless of how many users you have, then you will pay a fee per user, per month. Its cost is not a licensing cost per user, but a module cost and a user cost."
"It ultimately depends on the features and functionalities required for your specific use case."
