One of the major changes within the IT landscape is that more and more applications are being provided “as a service” and run in the cloud instead of using your own servers. That includes business applications such as CRM, ERP and accounting suites.

A few questions to ask yourself to determine the added value of cloud applications for your company:

• Has the license for your current CRM application expired or are you due for an upgrade?
   
• Have you purchased licenses in the past which you no longer use?
   
• Do you need new applications to support your company's digital transformation?
   
• Would you like to replace the silos and multiplicity of applications within your company with a scalable, customized solution, integrating all functionalities?

Microsoft Dynamics 365 can answer these questions, and others within your business as well.

• Dynamics 365 combines multiple applications such as CRM and ERP in a single platform. So, not just Sales, Service and Marketing, but also Finance & Operations, Talent Management, Project Service Automation, Customer Insights, Field Services, etc.
   
• Links with Office 365, LinkedIn, Azure, etc.
   
• Thanks to Microsoft's open ecosystem, you can address all your various business requirements through the same platform. The platform unites both Microsoft applications and third party applications, fulfilling your company's unique requirements.
   
• You no longer need to manage and maintain servers yourself.
   
• No application downtime for maintenance.
   
• You always work with the latest new version. Often, new versions are released for the online version only, remaining unavailable to on-premise users.
   
• You only pay for what you use. That's more flexible and easier on your wallet too.

Furthermore, Dynamics 365 is a hybrid environment, so you can switch to the cloud in stages, at your company's own pace.
