Microsoft Ups the Ante on the Next Release of Dynamics CRM

Monday, July 12, 2010 by Julie Stankey

Back in April, Microsoft proudly announced several of the new features and functionality for the upcoming release of Microsoft Dynamics CRM and Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online.  Today, at their annual Worldwide Partner Conference, they told partners to forget what they’d been told about the new release because it is going to be bigger and better than they had initially reported. 

Microsoft made changes to their plans across the board, starting with name.  What had previously been known as CRM5 is now officially Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011.  They also added 8 additional international markets to the 32 that had previously been announced where CRM 2011 will be available, bringing the total to 40 countries and 41 languages. 

Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 promises to deliver “The Power of Productivity” through familiar, intelligent and connected experiences for people inside and outside an organization. This release will also enable users to easily access Microsoft Dynamics CRM extensions and custom solutions from within their system through the integrated Microsoft Dynamics Marketplace, which is being released in September 2010 along with the public beta of Dynamics CRM 2011 Online.
