FAQs: Dynamics 365

Is Dynamics 365 an ERP or CRM?

Microsoft Dynamics 365 consists of both ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) and CRM (Customer Relationship Management) applications 

These two applications work together to give organisations an end-to-end view of the customer journey. 

  1. The CRM (front office operations) side focuses on managing customer relationships, sales, marketing, and customer service. 
  1. The ERP (back office operations) side helps your organisation manage its back-end operations, including finance, supply chain, inventory, human resources, and production. 

As a Microsoft Solutions Partner for Business Apps, ANS has rolled out Dynamics 365 for thousands of companies.  

Please note that ANS specialises in Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement — the CRM side (front office applications) of Dynamics. However, we do work closely with various ERP partners, so we can refer you for those applications if necessary.

ANS also provides Dynamics 365 managed services to oversee Dynamics operations and guide your organisation to success with UK-based tech support and consultancy. 

What are the main applications of Dynamics 365 CRM?

The main Dynamics 365’s CRM applications are:

ANS also offers CRM modules for charity organisations and training providers, depending on your organisation’s needs. 

Is Dynamics 365 cloud-based or on-premises?

Dynamics 365 is primarily cloud-based. The cloud based-version is a SaaS model, so it is hosted by Microsoft (not ANS). 

ANS deploys cloud-based Dynamics 365 due to the speed, security, and scalability of cloud hosting. 

How does Dynamics 365 integrate with other Microsoft products?

Dynamics 365  integrates natively with other Microsoft tools like Microsoft Office and Teams, helping to keep data updated throughout your workforce’s communications. 

Dynamics 365 is built on the Microsoft Power Platform, and therefore integrates natively with other Microsoft products like Azure and LinkedIn.
