SalesFUSION announces release of inDynamics(TM), their new cloud-to-cloud version of marketing automation for Microsoft Dynamics CRM
Atlanta, GA - SalesFUSION http://www.salesfusion.com , the maker of SalesFUSION 360™, an integrated sales and marketing demand generation platform, today announced the official release date and debuted it's new native Microsoft CRM application, inDyanmicsTM. The new app is a cloud-to-cloud solution for Dynamics CRM 2011 and directly embeds email marketing and website visitor tracking and analytics into CRM.
"We chose to announce the upcoming release of inDyanmics at this year's Microsoft Convergence show in Atlanta because the predominant theme of the show was Cloud-based computing. This new solution from SalesFUSION is the essence of leveraging the cloud to implement a better CRM by integrating the best that marketing software has to offer in SalesFUSION, via the cloud." Said Kevin Miller, EVP Marketing for SalesFUSION. "Since we began integrating our marketing automation software with Dynamics in early 2009, the response has been tremendous. Our customers love the depth of having a true enterprise marketing software app directly integrated into CRM….but they wanted more. Our customers wanted more native functionality and more custom entities in Dynamics that allowed for a better end-user experience. That's what we've accomplished with inDynamics."
SalesFUSION's marketing platform is unique in the industry in that it is built from the ground up on a CRM-style database. This allows for more flexibility and deeper integration to CRM systems, a core concept of Demand Generation. The nature of the platform also allows for a tremendous amount of flexibility in meeting customer's product needs. The concept behind inDynamics™ was to take the best of both worlds; the power of SalesFUSION's platform and the flexibility now offered in Dynamics CRM 2011, and combine the two to create a true demand generation solution in CRM.
Said Miller; "You're always going to have a percentage of clients, especially within the Dynamics community, who want everything within the confines of the core CRM, meaning they never have to navigate away from the CRM app. We accomplished that, for the most part, with our first 2 versions. Once we saw the flexibility offered in CRM 2011, we immediately jumped on the MPR (Microsoft Platform Ready) program and rolled up our sleeves and got to work developing inDynamics™. We've done similar integrations in other cloud-based CRM systems so we immediately knew how far we could go with embedding the app in custom entities. The result is nothing short of awesome."
InDynamics™ represents 2 specific products. The first is a general upgrade to the existing integration between SalesFUSION and Dynamics 2011. All existing SalesFUSION users who are on or upgrade to CRM 2011 will have the ability to download inDynamics™ for their use at no cost. The second is a point-of-entry marketing tool that exists only inside of Dynamics. The latter is designed for SMB companies and offers email marketing and web visitor tracking for $179 per month installed and allows for up to 25,000 emails/activities per month.
Effective June 1, 2011, Dynamics CRM users will be able to download the software installation package via the Dynamics Marketplace for both enterprise and inDynamics™ versions. This version is available for existing users of CRM 2011 and those companies upgrading to CRM 2011.
Because of SalesFUSION's unique internal CRM Accelerator, we can push/pull data at many levels between SalesFUSION360 and Dynamics CRM. While many companies provide for simple email integration, SalesFUSION opens the entire suite of eMarketing to the Microsoft CRM user.
SalesFUSION offers the following core processes in Dynamics
- Campaign integration - All campaign and campaign response activity is tracked to the lead, contact and account records in Dynamics CRM.
- Email integration - Rich html emails may be launched in SalesFUSION and tracked in Dynamics CRM. Beyond simple email blasting,SalesFUSION also enables more robust drip marketing and trigger marketing with its email platform giving Dynamics users more flexibility in creating long-term conversational marketing campaigns. Anyone can integrate simple email blasts into Dynamics....SalesFUSION goes much further beyond this to offer true Nurture Marketing.
- View marketing analytics and marketing dashboards in Dynamics CRM.
- View website visitor activity to the lead and account record in Dynamics CRM.
- Track ROI of campaigns - SalesFUSION will pull opportunity data into it's campaign tracking tool and auto-calculate campaign ROI based on forecast & closed revenue information from the Dynamics CRM opportunities

Should I use Microsoft SBS 2008 or Cloud-based solutions?
Small, 5-person company, geographically distributed. We need email hosting, website hosting, file collaboration, etc.
Should we get:
1) Microsoft SBS 2008 (managed by a third-party)
or
2) Google Apps Premier for email + Dropbox for files/collaboration
I recommend the 2nd option. However Dropbox is good for people to access the same files but if the files are being used at the same time you will wind up with multiple versions.
Dropbox keeps a local version of the documents on each users computer and when THAT user changes the document is syncs to Dropbox then down to the other computers.
If 2 people have the same file open and save the file one of 2 things will happen. Either the file will be duped and 2 versions (one with person A changes and one with person B changes) will be created. Or one version will overwrite the other.
If you are using strictly Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents then use Google Documents within the Google Apps services.

Managing Email Archiving in the cloud - Email Continuity
What Is Cloud Computing?
Cloud computing is one of the IT industry's newest buzzwords. If you're anything like me, you're wondering what on earth it actually means, especially when authors like Nicholas Carr proclaim it the way of the future. I was so curious that I went out and did some research so I could figure out this new phenomenon for myself.
Splitting up the two words makes this term easier to understand. The cloud is generally understood to be the internet, and in short cloud computing means using the internet for all of your computer needs. Rather than having disc storage, software, and hardware of your own, you store all of your information on the internet. If you use a service like Hotmail or Google Mail (Gmail in the States), you're already doing it. That's because Google and Microsoft's email services store all of your files for you on their servers. In fact, Google is one of the biggest players in the game, as they have several software suites that are free for use on the internet, like Google Docs or Google Calendar.
These services are provided for free, but many companies want to make money off cloud computing by extending into businesses. Unsurprisingly, Microsoft is one of them, particularly because cloud computing will take away much of the proprietary benefit they gain from their many pre-installed Windows programs and operating system. Amazon is another provider; they already allow users to set up stores and sell items via their own websites without any additional need for storage, and they plan to expand into other areas of the market as well.
As a business model, users typically rent software and hardware facilities that they previously had to buy. Start-ups are already taking advantage of cloud computing because it significantly lowers their initial costs; no longer do they have to buy expensive hardware and software for each employee. It lowers the barrier for entry, though it may not be a cost-effective service for the long run. Consider it like renting an apartment before you save up the money for a down payment on a house.
Similarly, the cloud model doesn't make sense for larger companies who already own the necessary hardware and software. It would just be too expensive. In the future, however, some technology enthusiast are already envisioning cloud computing as a common utility like electricity or gas, completely eliminating the need to run servers or potentially even individual computers on your own. To me, however, this seems to be a number of years off.
How will users benefit from cloud computing when it does fully arrive? Well, for one thing, everyone would be able to access any of their files at any location. If you do some work from home, you'll no longer need a laptop or even a flash drive because everything you could access at home will also be available to you at work. Like webmail services, your information will automatically sync because it's all stored in the same place. Perhaps information will also be cheaper, but no one quite knows where this revolution is headed – yet.
