Dynamics CRM 2016 Online vs On Premise

Over the last few years with incremental releases for Dynamics CRM – Microsoft has had to maintain a balance for online and on-premise customers. Naturally this is a challenge for Microsoft – keeping the two versions in sync, keeping the agility of pushing out updates online, and keeping the core on premise customers happy. So far Microsoft is doing a good job, barring the complains from some on premise customers that they are often left waiting for a year or more for a new feature when compared with CRM online customers.  At the same time the conservative on premise customers are happy that when they get a feature – its been tested by thousands of online customers.

Anyway, to simplify the challenging online vs onpremise feature discussion Microsoft has a feature comparison up now.

CRM 2016 - Online vs on-premises features FAQ

I recommend reviewing the article before proceeding. Below are the online only features

  • Analytics - Power Query connector streamlines connections to CRM Online
  • Create a task flow in CRM for phones and tablets (Preview feature)
  • Share the knowledge base with Parature / Integration with Parature
  • Use surveys to collect feedback from customers
  • Email - Dynamics CRM App for Outlook for Exchange Online
  • Delve (Exchange Online optional for attachments). SharePoint Online license required

I have excluded features like maintaining online instances as there is no point of having them in onpremise. As you can see – the difference is pretty minimal, and the only feature I am actually jealous about as a onpremise customer is Parature integration which is in its infancy right now anyway.

Dynamics GP 9 to GP 2016 (New features in each version)

The Microsoft Dynamics GP product team has been doing a fantastic job rolling out new incremental releases every year. In an ideal world – most people would try and stay up to date with the most recent release taking advantage of new performance and feature enhancements. However, most people like to wait out a release or two, and sometimes longer when you have a lot of customizations.

Most good partners and consultants normally recommend not staying more than 2 version behind. As long as you are keeping track of the official support lifecycle – you should be okay. Once in a while you run into people with really old installs. Companies who dont invest in IT, and are fine paying more $ in supporting an old version. When convincing such companies – I normally try and use something like the below to shown them everything they have missed out by not upgrading to the recent version. I have found it to be extremely helpful.

This is a work in progress, and you are welcome to contribute to this document – which I have hosted here -

Foundation Enhancement

Identity management: The identity management enhancement enables you to log into your Microsoft Dynamics GP Web Client user account with your organizational account (Azure Active Directory (AD) account). This alleviates the need to log in separately to access your network, SQL Server database and Microsoft Dynamics GP, relying instead on a single secure log in to deliver access to your GP workspace.

Copy user settings:
The copy home page enhancement can save time when setting up new user records by enabling you to copy the home page roles, home page content and area page settings for one user to a different user. Copying settings replaces any settings that were in place for the destination user. Any user with access to set up or edit user records of Microsoft Dynamics GP users can copy home page settings.
Management Reporter integration options: Two new options that were added to the Company Setup Options window allow you to specify whether to use information from General Ledger, Analytical Accounting, or both when using Management Reporter to create financial statements. Because these options are selected for a company, you now have more choices over what data to include in financial reports across your organization.
Single sign on through integration with Microsoft Azure Active Directory to help users work seamlessly across Microsoft Dynamics GP, Office 365, and other cloud-based applications.
