Dashboards and views are great ways to get insights about
- your business
- your customers
- the quality of data in your Dynamics CRM environment.
Dashboards
Dashboards provide the most effective way of combining data across different entities across CRM to provide powerful insight about your customers, whether this is from the sales, service or marketing work areas or a mix of all three.
Are you using the standard dashboards in CRM, or have you configured personal or system dashboards aligned to your business to maximise the reporting potential across sales, marketing and customer service?
At a glance dashboards are great for providing:
- Strategic dashboards
- Organisation wide reporting against key performance indicators
- Departmental monitoring of successes
- Flagging up any problems, such as high value opportunities without follow up
- Operational dashboards
- Hourly, daily and weekly monitoring of key performance indicators for managers to help them understand at a glance any problem points in the business that need addressing
- Activities lists to provide users with a single screen to help manage their daily workloads
We can train you and your team on creating personal dashboards so you can quickly and effectively monitor the key areas of your business.
Dynamics views
Mastering views turns you into a power user of CRM.

You know your business data better than anyone else – this helps to take this knowledge to the next level.
We can train you and your team on using views so you can analyse your data and resolve data issues before they become a problem.
