Calender 365: Streamlining your Dynamics CRM Operations
Out of all the apps, Calendars make our lives better with their one of the most important utilities. Which is scheduling our day, week, or even months. It makes a big difference to people whose schedules tend to be fully packed.
Especially in the business world where they have tons of meetings, phone calls, to-do lists in their CRM. Managing it without a calendar could lead them nowhere.
In Microsoft Dynamics, there is a default calendar module available which enables you to view certain events. But apart from just viewing your events, what if you could do much more with it? For example, updating data right from the calendar, tracking a lead’s progress and more.
Calendar 365 is an exclusive Microsoft Dynamics Plugin which brings your CRM data and calendar at one place.

Scheduled Activities
You have an important meeting. You sent an invite to all the team members but missed to include one of them. Now, it might create a mess as you will have no idea about their schedule. But, when you have a Dynamics CRM calendar plugin in place, you can easily create and manage meetings from one place which include all the team members. No more managing a single activity at multiple places.
Reminders

Microsoft Dynamics CRM Calendar helps you to keep up with all your meetings with reminders. Now you will never miss a meeting as you get reminders directly in your CRM.
Effective Operations
Once you complete an event in a simple calendar, you generally log in to the CRM and make updates. Calendar solution for Dynamics CRM facilitates you by editing rights in the calendar itself. You do not have to go back and forth between calendars and CRM to add summaries. For example, after a certain event, you can easily convert that contact into the lead from the calendar which directly gets saved in the system.
Filters
Color: Red, Style: Polo, Size: L. This is how our filters look like when we shop from a large chunk of products. Specified with essential aspects. The same thing is required for calendar management as we manage our calendars for a long period of time. You come in the morning, and see a lot of meetings and tasks there.
