"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 useful feature that this solution provides is the ability to make dashboards for the business easily as our company is managed using KPIs and metrics.""It is good for sales and service maintenance. It has various integration tools.""We are able to effectively follow up on requests, ensuring all customer issues are resolved in a timely manner. This solution provides a platform where there is visibility of all customer interactions, with efficient follow-up.""Microsoft Dynamics CRM has the same features as Salesforce CRM, but what I like about the solution is that it's customizable. It's also one of the top-rated CRMs in the market. I also like that the coverage system of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is very, very broad, which means you can do a lot with it versus what you can do with Salesforce CRM.""Dynamics is a complete tool that helps the company measure and track sales, orders, current customers, and the sales pipeline.""The solution is scalable.""The Outlook calendar has been very helpful for us."

Cons
"Out of the box, the solution doesn't really have a desirable user experience. We have to set it up and customize it to meet our needs.""Microsoft Dynamics CRM could improve by being more user-friendly and having a better design. I have used Service Desk and it is not user-friendly but this solution is worse. The graphical interface is not intuitive, you need someone to guide you or you will have difficulties navigating around to find the file you need. The data we are normally dealing with is boring enough and the interface could be more attractive and more exciting. The tabs and arrangement could be done better to be more user-friendly. Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and Word are fine and Microsoft should extend their user-friendliness and intuitiveness to Microsoft Dynamics.""Dynamic's management could be improved. The tech management should have better technical capabilities.""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.""The options for customizing Microsoft Dynamics CRM are very limited or highly complex.""If there was a bit more automation, specifically for marketing tasks, that would be ideal.""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.""It could be less complicated for smaller organizations."

More Microsoft Dynamics CRM Cons →

"With regards to monitoring the transaction with alerts, it could be better.""Sage CRM doesn't have a dashboard for dynamic reporting.""I would like Sage to improve their UI.""Sage CRM would benefit from improving its interaction with email communication sites and social media platforms in order to gather more leads.""From an improvement perspective, the ability to make modifications to the product needs to be more user-friendly.""The scalability of this solution depends on whether you have a team that can configure it for scale.""Its user interface could be better."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We have to buy a separate license in order to implement the social listening feature."
  • "It's kind of pricey. It's about $50 or $60 per user."
  • "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."

  • "Pricing for this software could be cheaper."
  • "The solution is open source and is free. However, it does require a Dynamics 365 subscription."
