Microsoft Live CRM Head-To-Head With Salesforce.com
USA -- Microsoft is competing hard with Salesforce.com in
the market for Web-based customer relationship management software, with
prices noticeably below Salesforce's rates.
Microsoft today announced plans for a subscription rate of $44 per user each
month for the professional version of the new Microsoft Dynamics Live CRM,
and $59 for the enterprise version. Salesforce.com costs $65 for the
professional version of its Web-based customer relationship management
service, and $125 for the enterprise version.
The new software is an alternative offering to Microsoft's current customer
relationship management software, Dynamics CRM, which runs on the client's
own servers.
Microsoft Dynamics Live CRM will work through the Microsoft Outlook program
and Web browsers.
