Microsoft Dynamics is a line of enterprise resource planning (ERP) and customer relationship management (CRM) software applications. Microsoft Dynamics applications are delivered through a network of reselling partners who provide specialized services. Very few installations are made without the aid of third-party resellers. In its 2013 update, the first since 2009, Microsoft removed the ability of users to access certain features such as report writing without the assistance of members of Microsoft's approved reseller network. Microsoft Dynamics is part of Microsoft Business Solutions. Dynamics can be used with other Microsoft programs and services, such as SharePoint, Yammer, Office 365, Azure and Outlook. The Microsoft Dynamics focus industries are retail, service, manufacturing, financial services, and the public sector. Microsoft Dynamics offers services for small, medium, and large businesses.
