Using Dynamics 365 CRM should feel like productivity, not paperwork. But for most users, it’s the opposite.
You open a record. Click. Scroll. Update. Click again. Repeat.
You're either jumping between endless tabs to check record status or squinting at flat views, trying to make sense of how contacts, accounts, and deals are even connected.
Sound familiar?
And more importantly, you don’t have to live like this anymore.
In this blog, we’re diving into:
- What CRM users struggle with daily
- How to visualize records in Dynamics 365 CRM
- Best CRM relationship map tools for the sales team to fix those problems
- A real-world use case that shows the apps in action
Let’s simplify all of that.
The CRM Visual Toolkit You Must Have
and by Inogic — two visualization apps that flip the way you view, manage, and act on CRM data.
They’re impact-driven on their own. But together, they create a seamless visual workflow that saves time, removes guesswork, and makes CRM feel intuitive again.
“I want to see where each deal stands.”
Now you can—with drag-and-drop simplicity.
What Kanban Board Offers:
- Turns your CRM views into visual boards
- Use swim lanes to group records by stage, priority, or owner
- Drag-and-drop to move records through stages (like a sales pipeline or case resolution process)
- Add activities (calls, tasks, appointments) right from the cards
- Color code and group rows for better visual alignment
- Instantly see totals and summaries in each lane
No more spreadsheets. No more clicking 5 times to see a record’s status. Just clean, visual, real-time management.
“I need to understand how these records are connected.”
You’ll never ask that again.
What Map My Relationship Offers:
- Builds an interactive 360° map of related records
- Shows hierarchical control view of parent-child connections in a tree format
- Visualizes N:N and custom relationships
- Lets you email, call, or create tasks right from the map
- Color codes roles so you know who’s who at a glance
- Filters views by relationship types or entities
Whether you’re a salesperson, support rep, or manager, it gives you the complete picture without switching screens.
