And who knows how long MS will supportĭynamics? If similar to the BCM decision, they could drop Dynamics in three years without notice or apology.Īt the very least Microsoft should offer assistance to those who do decide to move to Dynamics. for each user) but Microsoft Dynamics sales staff strongly suggested that you would need a consultant (a MS Dynamics partner) to manage the migration from BCM to Dynamics. Not only is there the cost of Dynamics ($65/mo.
I really hope that MS adds BCM support to Office 2016, but in the mean time I will start looking at alternatives and potentially at (now proven) Google solutions like Chromebooks. Where many companies will not want to spend 79$/100$/200$ per month per user for MS Dynamics CRM wth the likes of Zoho CRM available at a much lower cost.

In a world where Microsoft no longer has the monopoly and software as a service is widespread, you would think that Microsoft would want to keep users in the MS ecosystem by supporting long standing software, especially one that is used in the SMB environment Well and say goodbye to Microsoft Office, Windows, etc.
If I can migrate successfully then I can get all of my clients migrated over as If I go to SAS then this could be the kick in the pants to get me to migrate to a Google based solution like some of the new more powerful Chromebooks for my entire company. I agree with others that if BCM is no longer supported then Outlook is irrelevant and I would go one further to say that my Office 365 subscriptions are also no longer of use since I can use alternative/compatible office solutions from Google or other companies. This information confirms what I have read on the Web, but having used BCM for over 10 years, losing the accumulated data by moving to another solution like Act!, or a hosted service (not from MS) is depressing and very disappointing.
