Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a suite of both CRM and ERP software applications that helps business-related organizational processes perform effectively. Initially, CRM and ERM were considered to be two completely distinct systems that were used for distinct functions within a workspace. However, as a cloud-based business application, MS Dynamics 365 is to completely unify CRM as well as ERP functions.
Challenges in the Implementation of MS Dynamics 365
Microsoft Dynamics 365 is quite a necessity for modern businesses as it helps in effective functioning through the integration of multiple business plans, managing complicated workflows with the help of third-party applications, or some systems working as a backbone.
While benefits like improved security, increased flexibility, and adaptability are ensured to businesses, the Dynamics 365 platform will be able to meet the needs only when a company has made an all-over test of Dynamic 365 before it is put to use. Some of the challenges that need to be attended to are as follows:
- Configuration
Since no two organizations have the same requirements when it comes to business processes, it is necessary for the business to configure the system properly on a case-to-case basis. This needs to be done at the time of implementation for it to be in coordination with every specific arena.
- Customization
In case, the configuration does not serve the purpose of personalizing the Dynamics for the business, make sure that the implementation is customized using APIs so that all the requirements of the organization are met.
- Migration
As implementation of the Dynamics 365 is not a singular process and is dependent on the data of the company, the data needs to be migrated to the new Dynamics installation.
- Regular Updates
The Dynamics 365 brings in new updates almost every other day that may impact the implementations that include customization, configuration as well as integration. However, such implementations might get mishandled amidst the regular updates brought in by Microsoft. This needs to be taken care of.
- Tiring Task
As the entire process requires the act of combining Microsoft Dynamics 365 along with the already existing ERP and CRM, it is necessary to integrate different kinds of essential tools which include Office 365 and numerous third-party applications. This is necessary, even though tedious to ensure greater functionality and innovation within the system of the company.
- Re-writing of Soap API
As outdated Soap API is not relevant to the process, you need to rewrite that for the presently used WebAPI. This should be implemented only after going through a perfect testing environment as well as expertise.
- Complicated
The implementation process is not quite easy and involves a number of complex processes. Therefore, it needs the supervision of the experienced since a small glitch or even a bug can lead to great damage ruining the value of the market.
