Intuitive APIs, customizable design, but dashboards could improve
The most advantageous aspect of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is its periodic updates. Every quarter, Microsoft releases upgrades that address bugs and vulnerabilities. As a company governed by the Reserve Bank of India and SAP security regulations for our stock operations, we conduct periodic reviews of our applications, including Microsoft Dynamics CRM. Whenever we submit an audit report and identify bugs, we reach out to the Microsoft team for assistance. They assure us that the issues will be fixed in the next quarterly release. As a result, we have not experienced any outstanding bugs that have not been recorded or addressed.

Helps in creating web pages efficiently and has a simple setup process
We can provide access to specific authors and developers to particular DMS. It is complicated to integrate Sitecore with existing technologies. However, it is not that difficult to learn. I advise others to make a purchase decision depending on the particular use cases. It is suitable for hosting basic websites without e-commerce plugins. I rate it an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"For me, the most helpful functionalities in Microsoft Dynamics CRM are customer engagement, contact management, opportunity management, and order management. The service management features, including ticket management and handling complaints from the call center, are also very useful. One of the key benefits is the faster time to market, as it allows for quicker product delivery and better customer management. The tool also improves customer interaction through the service center, leading to better adherence to KPIs."
"The support is brilliant. All OEMs are pretty helpful."
"The most valuable feature in Microsoft Dynamics CRM is funneling."
"The Outlook calendar has been very helpful for us."
"The control that we have of a process and the ability to have everything recorded from the beginning to the end of the process have been the most valuable features."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is easy to use, the UI is very good, and it has many capabilities."
"The feature I like best in Microsoft Dynamics CRM is being able to market to segments instead of choosing individual people to market to."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM has to be its interface...Microsoft Dynamics CRM has a user-friendly platform."
"The platform’s most valuable feature is the ability to create web pages with ease."
 

Cons

"There are more people using Salesforce. Therefore, there are more partners, and applications for it, and is easier to use."
"This solution would be easier to use if everything was displayed on one page, to avoid moving from one tab to another tab to add documents or add comments."
"It could be less complicated for smaller organizations."
"The options for customizing Microsoft Dynamics CRM are very limited or highly complex."
"Technical support could be faster and more responsive."
"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."
"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."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I'm not aware of any licensing costs for Microsoft Dynamics CRM."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is a little expensive solution."
"The solution is expensive."
"On a scale from one to ten with one being expensive and ten being of great value, I would rate Microsoft Dynamics CRM at six on pricing."
"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 very affordable if you use the yearly subscription."
"The annual license for Microsoft Dynamics CRM could be reduced, it is expensive."
"Licensing fees are paid on a monthly basis."
