The Benefits of Going All-Microsoft: Fact or Fiction?

The benefits most often cited for using all Microsoft software are the ease of user adoption, the safety of a big, powerful brand, and the virtual guarantee that technical support will always be there for you. They sound like compelling reasons, but how true are they? The answers are in today's feature blog post—and they may surprise you.

Here's a look at Microsoft's business solutions' underlying platforms, including where they originated, which Microsoft solutions share the same platforms, and where Microsoft's platform strategy is heading. It's all in today's second feature blog post, along with links for a free evaluation of a half-dozen Microsoft ERP and CRM solutions.

Today's feature white paper examines the benefits of running Dynamics CRM 4.0, Microsoft's flagship customer relationship management (CRM) solution. See how you can save money on a CRM solution that extends Microsoft Outlook into a central location for all customer data, lead information, marketing pitches, and sales call information.
