Considering an Alternative to Email Notifications in Dynamics CRM Using Microsoft Flow
One of the most common requirements that I’ve encountered across all of my CRM implementations is the need for automatic e-mail notifications. That is, upon the trigger of various events, such as creation, status change, or deletion of an Account, Contact, or Opportunity, appropriate users in the organization need to receive an automatic e-mail notification. With all the emails already sent back and forth cluttering up the Inbox, I know I personally could do without the extra ones generated by a Dynamics CRM System. But what if you could just receive a push notification on your phone instead? Well, using Microsoft Flow—Microsoft’s new cloud-based workflow engine—you can! Not only that, you can do it quickly, and simply without a single line of code. Microsoft Flow Just released to the public on November 1st, using Microsoft Flow’s connection to Dynamics CRM Online is easy as pie. The authentication is automatically handled […]

Increase User Adoption with Your Own In-House CRM Support Entity in Dynamics CRM 2013 - a Step-by-Step Guide
User adoption is pivotal when implementing Microsoft Dynamics CRM within your organization. A key component to turning your CRM implementation into a successful investment is by providing timely post go-live and on-going support in a manner that reassures your users that the system will be properly supported. Support could range from training, user feedback, suggestions, enhancement requests, technical issues, bugs, reporting requests, etc. It’s best to have a solid plan in place, whether that’s using an existing I.T. ticketing system or having dedicated staff. But the reality is that many companies don’t have the time and/or resources to put something in place until after the first critical user adoption period has passed. If users don’t adopt to the system initially, it makes it much harder to get them on board later on. One way to show your users that they’ll have the support they need is by creating your own […]
