More Scenarios added to Dynamics Snap
I love the concept of Dynamics Snap. Office plug-ins that allows a user to access an ERP of CRM application from within office dramatically changes the usability challenge that most vendors have ignored for years. JamesU talking to CRN announced 8 more Snap scenarios which are;
vendor management; proposal life-cycle management; customer, case and financial analysis; customer 360-degree view; expense report management; campaign management; report subscription; and smart search.

The Snap applications we release on www.gotdotnet.com are only part of the story. When you look at technologies such as Visual Studio Tools for Office (VSTO) the general standards of Web Service integration build into our ERP and CRM applications a powerful value proposition where organizations can build their own Snap-ins for Office applications and finally liberate their users to user business applications they way they want. As developers from other business application vendors focus their time on cramming as many fields, buttons and functions onto their screens (apparently in the name of usability) we have truly focused on what makes software People-Ready. I have a funny feeling we may be onto something…
Let me know what you think.
Have a look at http://msdn.microsoft.com/office/understanding/vsto/default.aspx for details on VSTO.
