Has enabled seamless integration across platforms while supporting advanced analytics for customer insights
Microsoft Dynamics CRM doesn't provide solutions that allow you to transform easily if you have a heterogeneous mix of technologies or if your contact center is on analog and you try to digitize it. A lot of custom work is needed if you have to integrate heterogeneous technologies with the Microsoft suite, but if you are using the Microsoft suite, then it's quite seamless. Microsoft Dynamics CRM should add commercial models that allow smaller companies to use it because it can get pretty expensive. Better commercial options for smaller implementations may be helpful. There should be commercial options for smaller companies, as the overheads and costs of Dynamics can be quite high.

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.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is its performance."
"The solution is stable."
"The management and ability to process leads are the solution's most useful features; it makes it easy to maintain accounts and keep them up to date and relevant, the interface is very good and makes the product easy to use, the price is pretty decent, the initial setup is pretty straightforward, the sales cycle is great, everything is at the tip of my fingers, I have good visibility due to the excellent reporting, and the dashboard is great and lets me click anywhere and see anything."
"That is one of the advantages of using Microsoft applications because they have very good after-sales service and support."
"The deployment of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is easy because it's a software as a service, which eliminates the need to deploy anything in our data center."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is the campaign feature."
"The most valuable feature is that because this solution uses the cloud, you only have to install it and allocate it to a user, making it quite easy to use."
"Our clients appreciate that the solution can be used to monitor everything their customer interacts with in their business."
"The initial setup of Pega Sales Automation was easy since it is a tool meant for sales-related activities, and moreover, it is a very low-code tool."
 

Cons

"My company's biggest challenge with Microsoft Dynamics CRM is wanting to market solely to leads without having to create a contact and link the contact to the lead. From a marketing standpoint, there's room for improvement in the lead process of Microsoft Dynamics CRM."
"The solution could have better dashboards and the Microsoft operating system could be more intuitive."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM would be far superior if it had an analytical dashboard and AI-based systems."
"The integration capability with other systems could be improved, particularly the Lead Generation system."
"The UI/UX needs improvement as it is not intuitive from day one."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM needs to improve its integrations."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM can improve by having integration with Slack. Additionally, the solution is incomplete, and we must use other solutions to fulfill our needs."
"The support from Microsoft would improve. Most of the time of the day is terrible."
"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 cost depends on a number of factors, so whoever is implementing it will need to take that into consideration before it is done."
"For the price of Microsoft Dynamics CRM, you receive a lot of comprehensive functionality. Additionally, it integrates very well. We pay approximately $100 a month to use the solution and we do not have any additional costs."
"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."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is a little expensive solution."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is an expensive solution. However, most good CRMs are expensive."
"We have a three-year ELA with all our Microsoft solutions and often we had to do a true-up which was approximately $1,000,000. Additionally, we pay approximately $2,500 a month for support."
"Dynamics CRM's pricing is fair."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is very affordable if you use the yearly subscription."
