To date Microsoft has continued to fail in delivering rapid updates to its cloud based offerings and with Dynamics has shown interesting pricing moves with on network and cloud being inconsistent, a rumoured $30 extra per user for the new mobile Dynamics support adding up on price and pushing Dynamics into the realms of Salesforce pricing. Foe the average SME/B Dyanmics could prove to be a costly and complex offering.
