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.
Valdi Venter - PeerSpot reviewer
A modular, easy-to-use solution that needs to improve support and include automation
There are one or two annoying things. For example, if you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself. That's annoying. If you have five items in the drop-down list or if you have a hundred, it's just pathetic. It makes no sense that you have to do that because I've never seen it not work before in any other system that I've ever worked with. If you make a list of things, most solutions automatically put it in an alphabetized order. Or it'll put it in date order, but there is some order. It doesn't just go randomly in the order you create them. For example, I might load about 20 neighborhoods into a drop-down list, starting at "a" and ending at "z." But I might miss one of the "b's" and two of the "c's," so I add them, but they are added after the "z." Then I have to go to the bottom of the list, click on the one that starts with "b," and drag it all the way up to the "b's." That's just a pain in the butt.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Dynamics is easy to use. There are several fields I can filter."
"The solution is versatile and customizable."
"The solution is stable."
"One of the most useful features is we can configure Microsoft Dynamics CRM in the way that we need. This is configurable."
"Technical support is completely good."
"The history of engagement with our customers, including all conversations, has been most valuable when using this solution."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is the integration with Microsoft Office 365."
"It is good for sales and service maintenance. It has various integration tools."
"The fact that we can build our own modules on the solution is really quite attractive, and it's not overly complex."
"The most valuable feature of Vtiger CRM is automation."
 

Cons

"If there was a bit more automation, specifically for marketing tasks, that would be ideal."
"The options for customizing Microsoft Dynamics CRM are very limited or highly complex."
"Previously, I used Dynamics, but it did not suit me, so I changed the CRM last year."
"When it comes to any necessary changes or updates, we have issues. It is not very agnostic in terms of working with other platforms. A lot of data transformation had to be done internally in order to send it to various systems."
"It could be less complicated for smaller organizations."
"It lacks to provide a more detailed profile of the customer, which would have been better and more useful."
"The product is very old."
"Sometimes Microsoft's support can be difficult to contact, and it can take a while to get a response to a ticket."
"If you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself."
"The mobile design could improve in Vtiger CRM. It could be more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is an expensive solution."
"It's kind of pricey. It's about $50 or $60 per user."
"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."
"The cost varies on multiple factors including customization and the number of users."
"The solution is open source and is free. However, it does require a Dynamics 365 subscription."
"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."
"The solution is not expensive."
"We are using the free open-source version of Vtiger CRM."
"The price doesn't change when you add users. It's a flat fee, and that's attractive."
