Dataverse makes data management manageable
What is Microsoft Dataverse anyway — and why should I care? That’s a question we get a lot. While Microsoft offers a great technical definition of Dataverse, it struggles to explain the value that Dataverse brings to organizations that are looking to solve problems with technology. Technically, Dataverse is a database in the cloud. What sets it apart from SQL Server running in Azure is that Dataverse brings additional capabilities that a plain SQL database will not have. For example, Dataverse includes the following features:Complex role-based securityPre-defined metadata to reflect common types of data you might storeNative tie-ins to Microsoft Power Platform and Microsoft Dynamics 365Ability to build business rules for your … [Read more...] about Dataverse makes data management manageable

Microsoft Power Apps: A Game Changer for Mid-Sized Companies
For the last 15 years, I've been a CRM guy. Specifically, I’ve worked with Microsoft CRM (MBS CRM to Dynamics CRM to Dynamics 365 CE). During that period of time, I've often told people that I look for spreadsheets so that I can kill them. Businesses love to manage processes, maintain data, and build reports in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. And why not? It's easy to do, fast and simple to set up, and when you need a solution TODAY to track incoming leads, Excel is the first place most people turn. The problems with Excel don't show up until weeks, months, or sometimes years later.
