"One of the most valuable features of Pega CRM for our team's productivity is its ease of setup, thanks to its configuration-driven approach.""It also reduces the duration per call, and it ensures a first time resolution of the issue.""We can effortlessly manage the data within it, and it offers ease of use and high flexibility to present the data across various vendors.""The case management feature is really valuable.""Pega offers a clear parent-child case relationship that's easily created and maintained. Dependencies can be configured, where reaching a specific stage in a parent case automatically triggers a child task in a child case, while the parent case remains on hold until a certain condition is met before moving forward. This configuration allows multiple users to work on cases in parallel. Many of these settings are readily available within Pega case settings. Overall, Pega's case management is unparalleled compared to other options.""The product's deployment phase was easy.""The solution is very easy to use.""The most valuable feature is the ability to pull information about the customer on-the-fly so they feel the interaction is more personal."

Cons
"When it comes to any necessary changes or updates, we have issues. It is not very agnostic in terms of working with other platforms. A lot of data transformation had to be done internally in order to send it to various systems.""Microsoft Dynamics CRM could improve by making the ports and dashboards more intuitive using Microsoft Azure analytical features. Compared to Salesforce and other partners, the dashboards in Microsoft Dynamics CRM are less intuitive.""The product is very old.""It is difficult to qualify opportunity in Microsoft Dynamics CRM.""The solution could have better dashboards and the Microsoft operating system could be more intuitive.""The manufacturing module could be improved. I would like to see customization in the next release.""Microsoft Dynamics CRM could improve by making it easier to export data to SharePoint because most of our customers use SharePoint. They have to log into a Microsoft environment platform from their SharePoint for access should be made easier. Additionally, if the customer portal was enhanced for it to be customized it would be a benefit.""Sometimes Microsoft's support can be difficult to contact, and it can take a while to get a response to a ticket."

More Microsoft Dynamics CRM Cons →

"Price is always a concern for many organizations. They often think Pega is expensive, and sometimes they don't fully understand the pricing model.""For many of the clients, they have a separate system or separate layer of UI and a separate layer of the business rules engine, which Pega has taken care of in the recent releases.""The disadvantage of the tool stems from the fact that it does not allow users to make database-level modifications.""The UI should be improved.""It would be beneficial to enhance the pricing and support implementation options as they are currently quite expensive.""There has been a common acknowledgment among customers that this solution is an expensive tool and they often opt for cheaper tools like Comodo""The UI is lagging and needs to be improved.""They should enable the data-driven streaming feature inside it."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We have to buy a separate license in order to implement the social listening feature."
  • "It's kind of pricey. It's about $50 or $60 per user."
  • "I am not the person who pays for Microsoft Dynamics CRM but it is expensive. I have been using Microsoft Azure, which Microsoft Dynamics CRM is built on, and I know we prepaid for the services. For me as a consumer, I do not think I can afford it, mainly because I am only learning how to use the AI and the rate which they charge is high. In general, Microsoft solutions are expensive and this is most likely due to the brand, this is something you expect. However, the price might be high but you receive a highly secure solution."
  • "There is a license required to use Microsoft Dynamics CRM."
  • "The price of the solution is good but could be cheaper."
  • "We have a three-year ELA with all our Microsoft solutions and often we had to do a true-up which was approximately $1,000,000. Additionally, we pay approximately $2,500 a month for support."
  • "Pricing for this software could be cheaper."
  • "The solution is open source and is free. However, it does require a Dynamics 365 subscription."
