Good summary!

And Microsoft through the Productivity apps? (Word, Excel...)

Sure but Microsoft isn’t really offering a coherent solution for general company data and processes. They have the power platform, but because there’s no happy path, best practices, laid out it requires a lot more buy in from actual engineers who don’t have a lot of love for nocode platforms.

Do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and Savior Dynamics 365?

What? Microsoft is one of the biggest players in the market in this space with Dynamics 365!

I don’t have any data to back it up officially, but working in the space it seems like dynamics is taking customers from their competitors (eg SAP) fast too…

Microsoft also has Dynamics 365 (née Navision).

D365 has elements descended from Dynamics CRM, Dynamics AX, Dynamics NAV and probably lots of other stuff!

Yeah, lots of botched React integrations, misuse of Serviced Workers, nightmare security roles, just to name a few daily problems you will run into when choosing Dynamics 365!
