Business Need
Microsoft Dynamics CRM is a Customer Relationship Management software package developed by Microsoft. The product focuses mainly on Sales, Marketing, and Service (help desk) sectors. Dynamics CRM has a lot of different grids with huge number of different records (Accounts, Contacts, Leads, etc.). To view full details, user must open each record – it takes additional time for opening and downloading. Akvelon developed Global Preview to solve this problem and enhance CRM abilities.
