Microsoft Dynamics 365

2. Microsoft Dynamics 365 in the news!
“Microsoft makes a cloud push with new Dynamics 365 software suite and App Store”
“Microsoft snatches HP CRM and service business from rivals Salesforce and Oracle”
“Microsoft ups Salesforce, Oracle rivalry with new cloud product“
“Few other players offer a common platform and data model for CRM and ERP – and none bring in the Office productivity capabilities as Microsoft can”
I want to start by talking what exciting time it is for the Dynamics business.
On July 6, we announced Dynamics 365 to the market – our next generation of intelligent business applications in the cloud. We also announced AppSource, our new destination for business users to find and evaluate line of business SaaS applications.
With Dynamics 365, we’re unifying our CRM and ERP cloud solutions and delivering new purpose-built applications across sales, customer service, operations, field service and more. we’re also harnessing the power of One Microsoft, combining business applications and processes with the power of big data, advanced analytics and IOT, as well as deep integration with Office 365 for productivity.
The news coverage was amazing! We had nearly 90 global media placements – Including Forbes, the Wall street journal, Bloomberg and Techcrunch.
We also got great coverage from industry analysts. For example, Nucleus Research points out that few other players offer a common platform and data model for CRM and ERP… and none bring in the Office productivity capabilities as Microsoft can!
We also announced in September that we won the HPI business against Salesforce and Oracle in our largest ever CRM deal – again with great pickup from the media!
So let’s set the stage for our Dynamics 365 story with some market context.

3. State of the Market Customer Experience Productivity Speed of Business
By 2020, customer experience will overtake price and product as the key brand differentiator.
Productivity
40% of a worker’s productive time is lost when switching tasks. This costs the global economy $450B per year.
There are some key market trends are driving changes to how companies think about business transformation and the applications that power it:
Customer engagement is evolving: Everyone is mobile, everyone is social, people trust opinions from their friends and peers more than they trust brands. And it’s easier than ever to switch to a competitor. At the same time, now devices are increasingly connected. It’s a whole new world where the customer has control. Having a deep understanding of customers and being able to create a compelling experience is critical to any company’s business strategy. In fact, by 2020, customer experience will overtake price & product as the key brand differentiator.
With finite resources, productivity is critical for businesses to scale. 40% of worker’s productivity time is lost when switching tasks. This costs the global economy $450B per year. Companies have automated business processes. Now they are looking to embed productivity tools directly into business processes to save time and get more productivity out of their employees. Source: The 40% loss of productivity when switching tasks comes from a study done by the American Psychological Association back in 2001:
Lastly, there is a new speed of business and companies need to adapt. New technology is not only enabling new business models, it’s at a much faster rate than ever before. To be successful, companies need to enable their people and processes to respond quickly to changes in the market to capture new revenue opportunities. Organizations embracing digital transformation generate an average of $100 million (or 8% points) more operating income each year than those who lag behind.

4. Digital Transformation
Engage your customers
Empower your employees
Transform your products
Optimize your operations
Let’s talk about digital transformation. Digital transformation is not simply about technology—it’s a business strategy that requires leaders to re-envision existing business models and embrace a different way of bringing together people, data, and processes to create value for their customers and capture new opportunities for their organizations.
Digital transformation means re-envisioning how you:
Engage your customers
Empower your employees
Optimize your operations
And Transform your products
To enable digital transformation strategies – so organizations can grow, evolve and meet the changing needs of customers, as well as capture new business opportunities, companies need intelligent business applications… and that’s where Microsoft Dynamics 365 comes in.

A new approach to Business Application Licensing

Sales

Operations
With Dynamics 365, we’ve not only evolved our product strategy, we’ve also reinvented our approach to pricing and packaging – focused on simplicity and transparency.
Dynamics 365 licensing is predominately user-based. When we think of users, we think of 2 categories, Light & Full
Light is most of the people within a company …they look up customer information, they consume knowledge, they run reports, they complete light tasks like time and expense and create accounts or contacts. I am a perfect example of this. I approve POs, do expense reports and enter my vacation time. Our Team member SKU supports light users with a lower price point.
Full users leverage the majority of functionality – think of a sales rep, customer service agent, HR manager or Finance manager that works in a business application every day.
They can PURCHASE TWO WAYs
APPS BASED – this is the traditional approach to licensing. A customer can license a user at an individual application level.
PLAN BASED: this is our New Licencing model, which we are very excited about: - Plan based licensing allows a company to buys a single user licence with flexibility to leverage whatever functionality they need to fit their specific user types. This means companies can create real world roles for their employees – who might be primarily in manufacturing, but need to manage customer orders and field service orders.
Why are we excited
It is simple, flexible,
It Improves ROI – buy one license
HIGHLIGHT – Role-based licensing provides users with full usage rights to PowerApps and Microsoft Flow to compose new apps and easily extend and modify existing ones.
Light use, knowledge sharing & embedded business intelligence
App specific extensibility, workflow, & embedded business intelligence
Full extensibility, workflow, & embedded business intelligence

13. AccuWeather weathers the data storm
When the worldwide growth of connected devices pushed demand for AccuWeather up-to-the-minute weather forecasts from 2 million to 4 billion requests a day, the online weather service had a category-5 data storm to manage. The company had to collect more information from more locations and increase service speed at the same time, so AccuWeather adopted Microsoft Azure to store, process, and deliver content in the cloud.
It deployed Microsoft Dynamics 365 to better gather, access, analyze, and distribute real-time data from more than 3 billion locations around the world. AccuWeather has developed the speed and flexibility to respond effectively to 13 billion service requests a day—and now the forecast is for accelerated business growth.
