This episode of the MSDW Podcast was taped live on location at Directions North America 2017. Todd McDaniel of software firm Dynavistics and the Enterprise Software Podcast joins us to chat about the first two days of the event: the good, the bad, and the somewhat puzzling. We share some first impressions on Microsoft's broad range of updates, keeping in mind there are more to come on day three.

Topics include the future of Microsoft Dynamics NAV as Dynamics 365 "Tenerife", AppSource updates like the introduction of customer reviews and partner services listings, high level news on Microsoft's progress with its D365 CRM apps for both SMB and enterprise, and a few reflections on how the North American Dynamics partner channel might interpret this week's event, including GP and SL resellers.
