InterDyn BMI and GoIWx team up for hosted trial of Microsoft Dynamics CRM free for 30 days

2009-05-07T07:45:00.000-07:00

Minneapolis, Minnesota - May 7, 2009 - InterDyn BMI, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner who specializes in integrating and delivering all aspects of a client's business IT needs including Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), e-Commerce, Systems Engineering, Business Process Consulting and Custom Application Development, recently announced a strategic partnership with GoIWX, a leader in IT hosting, Software Plus Service (S+S) and Software as a Service (SaaS).

As the next step in a partner hosted offering in the SaaS model, InterDyn BMI in conjunction with GoIWx is announcing a free Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 trial for 30 days and packaged Training for Microsoft Dynamics™ CRM.

InterDyn BMI will offer online, instructor led Microsoft Dynamics CRM training at packaged pricing. The training environment will provide base product functionality and will not be configured to client specifics.

GoIWx President and CEO, RJ Burgess sees this coordinated offering as a excellent opportunity to help SMB's to make the move to Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 free for 30 days, while providing the opportunity to help the users get the hands-on training any organization needs to either bridge the gap from an older CRM program and get up to speed with new features of the software and at the same time, customers won't have to invest in the IT infrastructure new CRM implementations often require. "This makes the move to the SaaS model more attainable without the large CAP-X expenditures." says Brian Campbell, CRM Sales Manager. “With the CRM program we've just announced we believe customers have greater flexibility and get a better value with the GoIWx hosted model than with CRM Online. We achieve a greater level of flexibility in the installation and configuration.

InterDyn BMI is focuses on the sales, implementation and training for their clients to create comprehensive business solutions utilizing Microsoft Dynamics. There are several significant benefits to a program like this." Campbell continues, “This offer provides an option to get up and running on Microsoft Dynamics CRM at a low cost. This will allow the clients to recoup the investment with a faster uptime.”

For this joint endeavor, the training offering will be held online and instructor led. This venue allows for interactivity with the attendees and will provide training materials and lab exercises. The training package offer requires a minimum purchase of 3 user license and the installation of non customized or minimally configured Microsoft Dynamics CRM application in the GoIWx hosted environment.

Hosting can provide customers an "out of the box" solution which is low cost, with great training designed to fit their needs. Clients with more robust configuration can still get lower cost, with a quicker uptime, and spend CAPEX dollars on tailored training and realize more of an immediate gain. By going partner hosted, we can provide clients of varied needs, a higher return on investment.

In addition to CRM training, InterDyn BMI offers customization services, SQL Reporting services, installation and upgrades, advanced workflow training, and SharePoint installation and implementation.

Microsoft Dynamics GP: A smart move for your growing business
You’ve worked hard to build your business, and your Intuit QuickBooks solution has given you
the tools you’ve needed for accounting and basic business management. As you continue to grow,
so do your needs for a solution that can keep pace with change. Moving to a new business management system might seem overwhelming, given all the challenges you face every day. But Microsoft simplifies the process with Microsoft Dynamics™ GP, a solution designed to get you up and running quickly, grow alongside your business, and fit with your budget.

Just as QuickBooks is a leading software provider for small business accounting, Microsoft
Dynamics is a market leader for midsize businesses.

• More than twice the built-in functionality than QuickBooks Enterprise1
• Sophisticated reporting and decision-making tools, integrated with the Microsoft® Office system

requirements of mid-size organizations

For companies moving from QuickBooks, we offer a proven process, refined by many QuickBooks customers who have made the change to Microsoft Dynamics GP. When you choose Microsoft Dynamics GP, you can focus on growing your business, rather than on the technology supporting it.

By delivering a cohesive solution that helps lower implementation and long-term ownership costs, Microsoft Dynamics GP frees you to harness the power and flexibility of an award-winning business management solution.

Increase productivity with Microsoft Dynamics GP, Office SharePoint Server

2008-02-26T09:11:00.000-08:00

Increase productivity with Microsoft Dynamics GP,

Office SharePoint Server
Make business information, reports, and documents available for productive collaboration

When you pair up Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, you can make business information, reports, and documents available for productive collaboration among your employees or with customers and trading partners. What's more, you can use the capabilities of the two solutions to increase the productivity and consistency of business processes, boost the value and usefulness of information, and enable managers and workers to make more sound decisions. Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 and Office SharePoint Server 2007 facilitate flexible, easily implemented workflows; advanced search, and collaborative business intelligence for best results.

Enable employees, partners, and customers to locate and exchange information and collaborate effectively
Using Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 and Office SharePoint Server 2007 together can help you remove most of the limitations imposed by geographic location, organizational boundaries, and segmented storage of business documents and information.

• Provide stakeholders with security-enabled intranet and extranet access. Give your employees, customers, partners, and anyone who needs access to business documents and information, highly secure access to your company's intranet and extranet. You can provide personalized portals based on the needs of business roles. Your employees can collaborate on business planning and decision-making, and engage efficiently with partners and customers. Those partners and customers can take care of business on their own as you enable them to do so, from any location and at any time. You can offer all documents and reports, including Microsoft Office Excel 2007 spreadsheets, in centralized worksites that are accessible from a browser, while maintaining the integrity and confidentiality of information.

• Find pertinent information easily with advanced search capabilities. Workers can rapidly find the most relevant information and files. Conveniently, you can initiate a search from wherever you find yourself: Microsoft Dynamics GP, Office SharePoint Server 2007, or the Desktop Search function. With the advanced search functionality of Office SharePoint Server 2007, you can search and retrieve not only Microsoft Dynamics GP data, but also data from Microsoft Office Word 2007 documents, Office Excel 2007 spreadsheets, and Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 e-mail messages, as well as other types of documents, by using the Business Data Catalog in Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007.

Automate consistent, efficient business processes
By automating key business processes and critical daily tasks in structured workflows enabled by Office SharePoint Server 2007, you can ensure that the right people make the right action at the best time. You can accelerate the pace at which your business is moving forward and allow your employees to focus on the most critical tasks.

• Streamline frequent, important processes. When you implement Microsoft Dynamics GP and Office SharePoint Server 2007 together, you can take advantage of six pre-formatted workflows for business process automation:

• General Ledger Batch Approval

• Receivables Management Batch Approval

• Payables Management Batch Approval

• Credit Limit Override Approval in Sales Order Processing Entry

• Sales Quote Approval

• Purchase Order Approval

• Ensure completion of important tasks. Many authorized Microsoft Dynamics GP resellers can help you plan, create, and implement additional workflows. Workflows can take participants step-by-step through the processes and tasks that are critical in your business. You decide what the organization needs, and workflows can adapt to your goals.

• Promote accountability. Workflow functionality incorporates an audit trail of task ownership and helps workers achieve consistency. Statistics can also be tracked to further streamline your organization through comparing approval times by approver and other measures.

Enable sound, fast decision-making with efficient reporting
Together, Microsoft Dynamics GP and Office SharePoint Server 2007 provide people inside and outside of the organization with reports and information they need. You can make the most effective use of reports created and maintained in Office Excel or SQL Server Reporting Services, or go beyond that, using other tools to enable you to steer your business in the right direction.

• Access current, complete information. Workers can access refreshable spreadsheets that eliminate static data issues and always guarantee one definitive version. With the power of Microsoft Office Excel, users can create charts and graphs to give key decision-makers the information they need in the format they like, whenever they want it.

• View reports from any location. Provide direct access to reports without the need to log on to your network, through the Office SharePoint Server Reports Library. Employees and stakeholders can work with refreshable Microsoft Office Excel reports even without Office Excel loaded on their desktops or laptops.

• Manage business performance and strategic planning. Using Microsoft Dynamics GP and Office SharePoint Server 2007 together lets you offer portals and information tailored to business roles. In addition, you can create executive dashboards to display critical financial or other information along with related reports and documentation to ease and accelerate decision-making, planning, and compliance efforts.

Event Features B2Bi Experts and Marine Electronics Supplier, Vexilar

Minneapolis, Minn., Feb. 7, 2008 – SPS Commerce, the leading provider of SaaS EDI services and Interdyn Business Microvar, today announced their webcast entitled, Hosted EDI for Dynamics GP, featuring EDI and integration experts and marine electronics supplier, Vexilar Inc. The event explores why organizations are integrating their EDI operations with Microsoft Dynamics GP using outsourced B2Bi instead of traditional software deployments.

“As our retail customers were requiring more and more EDI transactions for their direct-to-store and crossdocking processes, we decided it was time to automate Vexilar’s EDI process to draw the needed order and shipping data from our Dynamics GP solution needed by our outsourced EDI service provider, SPS Commerce,” said Laurie Foell, controller at Vexilar. “With the help of Interdyn Business Microvar and SPS, Vexilar integrated the hosted EDI service with our Dynamics GP system in 2007 before Vexilar’s fall busy season. These organizations know EDI, but also knew the detailed workings of Dynamics GP, making our integration one that fit our timeline and delivered the efficiency we needed.”

Webcast attendees will hear answers to these questions and more:
• Why have outsourced B2Bi and EDI become so popular?
• What are the different types of outsourced B2Bi solutions?
• What are the requirements a B2Bi solution should address?
• What are the keys to making a B2Bi project a success?
• How does the SaaS model work with an existing Dynamics GP solution?

Featured speakers for the Hosted EDI for Dynamics GP webcast include:
· David Novak, Executive Vice President at EDI outsourcing leader SPS Commerce
· John Hendrickson, CEO at Interdyn Business Microvar, a Gold Certified Microsoft Partner that designed the integration between SPS Commerce and Dynamics GP
· Laurie Foell, Controller at Vexilar Inc., a leader in marine electronics, who will discuss how Vexilar the advantages of an outsourced approach to B2Bi
