What is Microsoft Dynamics 365

Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a set of interconnected, modular Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications and services designed to both transform and enable your core customers, employees, and business activities. It combines CRM and ERP capabilities, integrating your data, business logic, and processes.

And it is natively integrated with Microsoft 365’s productivity apps, giving you a unified way to manage users and services.
