Fuel business productivity with Microsoft Dynamics

Fuel business productivity with Microsoft Dynamics

Take your people and processes to the next level of performance
Microsoft Dynamics for business management promotes a people-focused approach to productivity. By empowering your people to accomplish their best, you can heighten the productivity of collaborating teams, workflows and processes, key relationships with suppliers and customers, and technology—across your organization.

Capitalize on productivity opportunities
Microsoft Dynamics business management solutions can provide an infrastructure to help you reach your specific productivity goals. The technology can follow your vision. Important Microsoft Dynamics capabilities include helpful automation, actionable information, and effective collaboration. For example, you can:

Automate business processes. Reduce the cost of doing business by helping your people concentrate more on productive tasks and less on repetitive busywork. From the first sales conversation through manufacturing, shipping, and servicing, automation helps streamline your entire business and move processes along productively and economically.

Use technology to get accurate information. Set the best course of action. And act on it. Reporting and business analysis tools help your people gain a deep understanding of business performance, customer preferences, and market trends. Executives can receive business performance, financial, and competitive intelligence. Line-of-business directors can assess and drive departmental productivity and operational efficiency. And employees can manage business areas within their responsibility equipped with all the information and capabilities they need.

Enrich teams within the company. Employee portals and team sites help people to work together productively across the organization, no matter where they are. Customers and business partners can engage with your company in mutually beneficial, collaborative relationships. Employees, vendors, and customers gain direct access to the information, documents, and capabilities they need. And executives and business managers can access performance metrics and analytical reports and work together to set strategy.

Implement technology that works the way your people do
Microsoft and its partners work with you to help ensure that you generate the productivity benefits you are striving for from a business management solution.

Put people at the center of business processes. Microsoft Dynamics works with and like the software your people use every day. Each team member can adjust preferences, views, and report types. And RoleTailored access to intranet employee portals helps everyone in your organization get to mission-critical tasks first and keep sensitive information protected.

Increase productivity. Microsoft Dynamics solutions work like and with other Microsoft technologies you might already use in your business. With the low support requirements and easy user adoption of Microsoft Dynamics solutions, your IT team can play a more strategic role in advancing your business interests.

Get industry-specific functionality. Microsoft partners provide industry-specific customizations that help boost the value of Microsoft Dynamics with their own software products. Microsoft is committed to giving partners everything they need to help you gain the full benefits potential from Microsoft Dynamics software and other Microsoft products and technologies.

Microsoft Dynamics for the sales professional

Microsoft Dynamics for the sales professional

Meet customer needs, drive more sales, and build strong customer relationships

The success of a company relies on the business and revenue it generates. Maintaining happy customers while pursuing new relationships is essential to this task. The Sales department not only drives future growth but also shapes the direction of the company and enables it to meet its goals through the customer relationships created by sales engagements.

Sales representatives must have available to them the most accurate company data, including up-to-the-minute product and service pricing as well as information about clients. Success for the sales department depends largely on immediate access to business-critical information, which helps them respond to customer needs. Customer relationship management (CRM) software can give the sales team a strategic advantage and make information that can be hard to find or that resides in disparate systems more centralized and readily available.

People

Kevin, a Sales Manager

As a Sales Manager for a midsize company, I am responsible not only for the performance of our Sales Representatives and our company's relationships with its customers but also for setting goals, providing resources for the sales staff, and maintaining the image our company wants to project. For me, building a solid sales team and strong relationships with our customers is key.

With my busy schedule, I often work long hours. Microsoft Dynamics business management solutions help me to account for both the sales team's progress on converting new leads to sales as well as our actual sales results. With up-to-the-minute data, Microsoft Dynamics CRM lets me respond to any sales concern, determine pricing policies, and track individual as well as team performance. Thanks to Microsoft Dynamics, I always know how well we are doing.

I am also the point of escalation for the customer service and sales teams. When I need to take a call from an unhappy customer and leave the person content, Microsoft Dynamics CRM provides me with a full account history and all the information that might help me in that conversation.

Michael, an Account Manager

As an Account Manager, I am responsible for maintaining the relationship with existing customers and for providing customer service, and Microsoft Dynamics CRM is crucial for me to do my job well. If a customer has a question, I only have to go to one place to get the history of both the customer and the deal. I'm also responsible for the overall customer experience. With a complete customer record, nothing falls through the cracks. This lets me provide the kind of experience our customers want—and expect.

Microsoft Dynamics CRM lets me stay focused on growing the accounts because it's easy to keep records of all my contacts and activities. I don't have to work to remember what I said to the customer the last time we spoke; it's all in the customer record.

Processes

The Sales team is at the front line of your company. You must be able to accurately gauge their performance as well as effectively plan, execute, and take advantage of sales opportunities. Microsoft Dynamics CRM lets you view, manage, and track the work of your Sales team, see how fast the Sales team converts new leads to prospects and sales, and evaluate performance changes over time.

Qualifying leads and closing the deal. Extensive research, effort, and time are necessary to maintain customers, manage a team, and qualify sales leads. Sales Managers rely on key sales information, such as staff performance data, budget and expense information, and product pricing, as well as information on potential customers, including intelligence that helps determine a customer's market and financial position. The contact and opportunity management features in Microsoft Dynamics let you maintain detailed profiles of your sales contacts, move the sales process along, and pursue all actionable opportunities. And Microsoft Dynamics CRM offers integrated, flexible customer relationship management (CRM) tools that enable the tracking and reporting of sales results and events on customer accounts.

Easy access to data to improve sales processes. The Sales Manager must have up-to-the-minute business and industry data, and you must also be able to quickly and effectively access, share, and analyze that data. With Microsoft Dynamics CRM, you can document and manage your customers and prospects; create, view, revise, and distribute financial reports; and assign tasks to your team and ensure their completion. Microsoft Dynamics solutions maintain information from throughout the organization in a single repository, so you always have a complete view of factors that affect your business. And Microsoft Dynamics solutions work with and like other Microsoft products. For example, you can export and analyze data in Microsoft Office Excel, create reports in your preferred format, and make them available through business portals built on Microsoft SharePoint technology.

Microsoft Dynamics for the IT professional

Microsoft Dynamics for the IT professional
Reduce costs, connect systems, empower people, and deliver business results

IT teams are responsible for the computers, networks, and software applications that manage a company’s operations, track financial transactions, and enable people to communicate and collaborate throughout the company. Without a smooth flow of information through a company’s IT systems, operations would not be efficient or even possible in some cases. IT managers need to monitor the day-to-day health of complex systems while simultaneously tracking innovations in technology that might create competitive advantages.

People
Tim, an IT manager
As the IT manager, my job is to keep our company’s network and computers up and running and see to it that everyone has the information and tools they need to do their job. My goal is to select, deploy, and manage our company’s IT investments so they become strategic assets to help the company reach its business goals.

The obstacles I face include the fact that we have many departments using systems that aren’t connected, leading to data duplication and sometimes multiple versions of the “truth.” It’s not enough to keep machines and applications running; I have to make sure that critical information can move through these siloed systems and reach the right people at the right time.

Processes
Microsoft Dynamics ERP and CRM solutions make the job of connecting systems and exchanging information easier for IT professionals, and in many cases, it happens automatically. Microsoft Dynamics enables your end-users to access information by themselves, so IT professionals can concentrate on higher-value tasks.

Reduced costs. Microsoft Dynamics solutions are built on a standard Microsoft platform, which helps your company reduce costs. You may already use many of the supporting technologies, such as Windows Server, Microsoft SQL Server, or Windows SharePoint Services. If so, you won’t need special licensing or costly, time-consuming retraining to benefit from Microsoft Dynamics solutions.

Familiar user experience. Microsoft Dynamics solutions operate like other familiar Microsoft applications, such as Microsoft Office. The RoleTailored user interface provides access to the data and insights needed for individual roles or departments, making Microsoft Dynamics easier to learn and use and helping to reduce IT support requirements.

Responsive to change. With a flexible and standard architecture that takes advantage of Microsoft .NET components such as Windows Workflow Foundation, Microsoft Dynamics enables you to quickly and easily add features and update workflows to respond to changing business conditions. This helps ensure that your business software is adaptable to your changing business needs.

Simpler end-user reporting. Microsoft Dynamics helps make important business information more widely accessible in your organization, giving the right people access to the right information at the right time. By using Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies, you can provide straightforward access to information via a Web browser. And because Microsoft Dynamics is built to work with familiar Microsoft Office programs such as Outlook and Excel, your people can use familiar tools to perform additional analysis.

Flexible deployment. Microsoft Dynamics ERP and CRM solutions are available either on-premise or via a hosted model (partner-hosted or Microsoft-hosted in the case of Microsoft Dynamics CRM), providing you with flexible and cost-effective deployment options.

With integrated financial, manufacturing, supply chain management, sales and marketing, project management, human resources, and services management information from across your organization stored in a centralized database, your people can work quickly and effectively—helping to drive your business forward.

Greater simplicity for greater productivity

In everyday life, it can be difficult to simplify and organize tasks, remove clutter, and put information where you can get to it easily and quickly. That’s exactly what the Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 RoleTailored User Experience does to your office workstation. It hides 90 percent of the features you don’t need to see. And it promotes the actions and information that you do need, leaving you with an uncluttered window and an overview of upcoming tasks—helping you prioritize your tasks, and keeping your work productive, stimulating, and fun.

RoleTailored home pages—called Role Centers—make it easy for people to view their work priorities and access the information and tasks they need for their specific job, not just anyone’s job. The result? An innovative solution that frees employees and business leaders to direct their talents and skills towards business success. Role Centers in Microsoft Dynamics NAV help people in job roles ranging from the president, to accounting manager, to sales manager, and to warehouse worker gain access to the full scope of the tasks, information, and reports they need in a single view.

Deep integration across Microsoft Dynamics NAV with familiar programs such as Microsoft Office Excel and Windows SharePoint Services makes it easy to communicate and collaborate effectively and share information—without having to juggle applications.

Making smart decisions

Microsoft Dynamics NAV enables every individual in your company to turn hunches into genuine insight, and insight into decisions. With access to real-time data and a wide range of analytical and reporting tools—including graphical displays, online analytical processing (OLAP) cubes, and Web-based delivery options—people can make informed, confident decisions that help drive business success.

Fast to implement, easy to configure, and simple to use

Meet changing business needs without disrupting your operations or your IT budget—and make the most of your current IT investments. Microsoft Dynamics NAV provides the flexibility to set up your system for today's business requirements, as well as a reliable platform for change and growth. Security features enable you to configure the system to control who can access what; built-in tools and the open architecture enable Microsoft partners to adapt the foundation to meet your specific needs—now and in the future. And the object-oriented development environment and compact source code simplifies system maintenance and connecting to other systems.
