Ensuring the gain of a synergistic benefit from your other Microsoft investments by enriching Dynamics 365 with deeper integrations with Microsoft Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, Stream, Azure, and LinkedIn.

Advancing the platform beneath Dynamics 365 – the same platform beneath Office 365 – to combine Power BI, PowerApps, Microsoft Flow, Microsoft Stream, the Common Data Service for Apps, and the Common Data Service for Analytics into an unmatched palette of tools to extend, customize, and integrate Dynamics 365 and Office 365 into your environment. These experiences are powered by insights and intelligence from data across hundreds of business systems with built-in connectivity to the platform, and with rich audio-visual media that integrates tightly into the business applications people use daily.
