3 ways to extend Dynamics 365 for complete customer engagement

Dynamics 365 is a strong system of record. For many organisations, that is where it stops. 

Customer interactions still happen elsewhere. Calls sit in telephony systems. Messages sit in inboxes. Agents update CRM manually, if they update it at all. Over time, gaps appear. The customer record becomes partial. Reporting becomes unreliable. AI tools built on top of that data struggle to produce anything useful. 

This is not a limitation of Dynamics 365 itself. It is a gap between where conversations happen and where they are recorded. Closing that gap changes how the platform is used. 

 

1. Close the conversation capture gap 
Most organisations rely, at least in part, on manual logging. 

An agent finishes a call, then writes a note. Or they forget. Or they capture only part of the interaction. Across hundreds or thousands of conversations, that inconsistency compounds. 

The result is predictable: incomplete records and limited visibility. 

Solgari addresses this by capturing every interaction automatically across voice, SMS, WhatsApp, email, and chat, and writing it directly into Dynamics 365. 

Nothing depends on manual input. The record builds itself as interactions happen. That changes reporting, governance, and day-to-day visibility into customer activity. 

 

2. Make Dynamics 365 usable for AI and Copilot 
There is a growing assumption that adding AI to CRM will improve outcomes. In practice, AI needs structured input. If conversations are missing, or only captured as short notes, AI has very little to work with. It cannot accurately summarise, detect sentiment, or provide meaningful recommendations. 

To make Dynamics 365 usable for AI, conversational data needs to be converted into something structured. 

Solgari does this through: 

  • Transcription
  • Summarisation
  • Sentiment analysis
  • Translation 

These capabilities are powered by Azure OpenAI and integrated into the Microsoft environment. This turns conversations into usable data, allowing tools like Microsoft Copilot to produce outputs that reflect what actually happened with the customer. 

 

3. Extend Dynamics 365 into the flow of work 
Even with good data capture, adoption remains a challenge if users have to leave their main workspace to use CRM. 

This is where many implementations fall down. Teams across service, sales, and operations increasingly work inside Microsoft Teams. If CRM sits separately, it becomes something they update after the fact, not something they work in. 

Solgari brings customer engagement into the same environment by operating natively inside both Microsoft Teams and Dynamics 365. Users can manage interactions, access customer data, and capture activity without switching systems. 

That reduces friction and increases consistency. 

 

The practical takeaway 

Extending Dynamics 365 is not about adding more features. It is about making sure the platform reflects reality. When every interaction is captured, structured, and managed within the flow of work: 

  • The customer record becomes complete
  • Reporting becomes reliable
  • AI becomes usable 

Without that, Dynamics 365 remains a partial view of the customer. 

With it, it becomes a working system for customer engagement, not just a place where records are stored.
