Implement CRM 365 online or on premise…?
For small/Medium Business this is not a question. Budget to buy servers
or using VMWare + licenses for CRM, SQL + system are too expensive. The natural
answer is CRM online.
Now what about Medium\Large companies…
Big companies with call center (telephone integration) needs faster
system, open the forms quickly CRM online can be a problem, too slow the only
option is on premise.
CRM online contains latest version of the product with the new features,
bug fixing.
Working with on premise gives the flexibility to work with SSIS (import and
export massive data) directly to database, create RDL reports (SQL command) in
this case on premise.
Many companies like banks, investment houses cannot export the customer
data from the companies outside in this case only on premise can be relevant.
Easy way to upgrade on premise or CRM online depends on
the quality of the code, Write only supported and using SDK. In CRM online
immediately customer gets the error but in on premise we can install the SP
first in development environment, fix code then test environment and if all good in Production.
The conclusion for small/ medium
business online can be a good solutions, depend budget, customization,
integration code changes.
For large companies for now the only option should be on premise…
Hope in the future Microsoft will improve the
performance.
