Pawel-Gawronski - PeerSpot reviewer
Streamlining resource management and improving project insights with helpful 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. It has improved the verification of value streams by mapping projects to products and demonstrating the total cost of ownership. This automation significantly impacts daily operations by reducing the time spent on manual tasks and improving the quality and delivery time.

Pros

"We can add users and products to the workflows."
"I rate Bigin by Zoho CRM nine out of ten."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is that it is a low-code platform and we can perform business process management."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is its integration with Outlook and other Microsoft products like Microsoft 365, which includes emails, Teams, and SharePoint."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM brings the most value in terms of its ease of implementation."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is its performance."
"The most valuable features of Microsoft Dynamics CRM are the out-of-the-box functionalities, particularly those around sales, field service, and project service, which are really good for medium customers, and the flexibility allowing users to change functionalities to fit specific business needs."
"The stability of the solution is high."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM has plenty of valuable features."
"Dynamics is a complete tool that helps the company measure and track sales, orders, current customers, and the sales pipeline."
 

Cons

"The user interface is too modular and fragmented, posing challenges. The UI could be much better by the year 2025."
"Zoho CRM needs to incorporate HRM."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM can improve the integration with the other system. If they have more flexibility to connect with another system it will be more effective."
"The performance could be improved."
"Microsoft Dynamics could have better note-taking capabilities. It should have more preset options where you enter notes by clicking a box instead of writing them out."
"The pricing of Microsoft Dynamics CRM can be complex due to Microsoft's complicated licensing model."
"There are more people using Salesforce. Therefore, there are more partners, and applications for it, and is easier to use."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM could improve by making the ports and dashboards more intuitive using Microsoft Azure analytical features. Compared to Salesforce and other partners, the dashboards in Microsoft Dynamics CRM are less intuitive."
"This is a good tool, but if you don't have experience using a CRM solution, there are a lot of things you'll need to learn. This tool needs to be more user-friendly."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM can improve by adding more artificial intelligence. Additionally, they should add more modules, such as account-based management, that are available on other platforms such as salesforce.com."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is an expensive solution."
"The solution is open source and is free. However, it does require a Dynamics 365 subscription."
"Pricing for this software could be cheaper."
"The cost varies on multiple factors including customization and the number of users."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM's price is too high."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is very affordable if you use the yearly subscription."
"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."
"I am not the person who pays for Microsoft Dynamics CRM but it is expensive. I have been using Microsoft Azure, which Microsoft Dynamics CRM is built on, and I know we prepaid for the services. For me as a consumer, I do not think I can afford it, mainly because I am only learning how to use the AI and the rate which they charge is high. In general, Microsoft solutions are expensive and this is most likely due to the brand, this is something you expect. However, the price might be high but you receive a highly secure solution."
