Less is Better than More

When it comes to customisations of Dynamics CRM, AX, NAV, basically all Microsoft business products, less is better than more. For that reason so many heavily customised Dynamics systems failed in past years. Please remember Less is Better than More when you customise your system.

It is big lesson for the whole Microsoft Dynamics community, isn’t it?

If you really need customise heavily your system please always

  1. ask you client why it is required,
  2. prioritise all customisations
  3. control all changes – change control
  4. please don’t promise too much
  5. and never ever don’t say it easy

current vs new UI at Dynamics 365 (D365)

There is a significant difference between current vs new UI at #D365, isn’t it ?I believe a following screenshot is showing the difference well.

New UI looks better, not so much white space like in current UI. I really hope it  will be a game changer and it won’t break anything in existing CRM’ systems. New unified concept is very interesting challenge which could improve user experience with this product.

Event Management at D365

Event Management is due to be part of the Business Edition Marketing app at Dynamics 365. Microsoft hasn’t confirmed final dates for the preview or release (Spring 2017 Release) yet.

It may still be subject to change, the new Dynamics 365 Marketing app will include only limited marketing resource management capabilities. But it will include more robust features for most multi-channel campaigns, event management, sales collaboration, customer intelligence and profiling and customization. Microsoft hasn’t confirmed dates for preview or release for this yet, but they are expecting news in the next couple of weeks.

I have heard about some presentations on Extreme 365 (conference) about it – Param’s deck.  However there is not too much information online about like so far. I just could find a few screenshots about incoming Event Management at D365.

Please share if you have any updates, actual links, urls, literally anything!
