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.
Mohammed Tafazal - PeerSpot reviewer
A scalable low-code platform with an easy initial setup phase
Stability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten. The stability of Pega Sales Automation depends upon how an IT architecture is built, and because of this, I can say that users would experience no downtimes in an IT environment with high-availability servers. With Pega Sales Automation, I haven't seen any downtimes.

Cons

"I have contacted support. They are able to help but not in the right amount of time. I have had a horrible experience."
"One area for improvement in Microsoft Dynamics CRM is its end user feedback. It's still not that great compared to Salesforce. They also need to improve on the look and feel of the solution, because those are still slightly better on Salesforce."
"Technical support could be faster and more responsive."
"I am happy with it. If anything, its interface could be improved."
"The UI and GUI could be improved."
"The installation was difficult. I'm not the person that implements the solution. However, to have the solution function in the correct way, the process can be difficult."
"It would be better if it were more secure."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM would be far superior if it had an analytical dashboard and AI-based systems."
"I want Pega Sales Automation to provide users with more predictive and adaptive models and on how to get a forecast of upcoming leads since these two are areas where the solution lacks."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is not expensive."
"My organization pays for the license, and I do not know how much it costs."
"The solution is expensive."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is a little expensive solution."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM's price is too high."
"The customers that have Microsoft Office 365, the license price is competitive. It is competitive because the next solution above it is Salesforce, which is licensed quite high. The price annually was approximately $55 per user but we did a combination of users with some of them having the higher range of approximately $85."
"We have deployed the cloud-based version and it is a subscription and the price is based on the number of users using it."
"It's kind of pricey. It's about $50 or $60 per user."
