Dynamics CRM 4.0 is a CRM (customer relationship management) server application designed to run on Windows Server 2003 Standard, Enterprise, or Web Edition in conjunction with Exchange Server, Standard or Enterprise editions. Dynamics CRM provides users with a shared database of customer records and communications, ensuring that all departments have access to up-to-date customer information, as well as a unified system for scheduling contact with customers and other CRM duties.

Workgroup Server is one of three editions of Dynamics CRM 4.0. Workgroup Server and Professional Server offer the same features and the Enterprise Server also supports multiple, distinct CRM databases on a single server. CRM 4.0 Workgroup Server includes licenses for a maximum five users to access the server from any number of computers or other devices. There are no licenses available for additional users, devices, or external users.

Users can access and work with Dynamics CRM customer records and reports through an Outlook toolbar or by using Internet Explorer to access a customized, internal Web site. Reports are available with on-demand, scheduled, or event-based delivery, and can be generated by users without IT assistance.

Users can integrate contacts, emails, tasks, appointments, or OneNote notes with the appropriate customer records; track email correspondence; and schedule and automate tasks such as customer contacts. Replies to tracked emails are automatically tracked as well, allowing users to quickly see all pertinent correspondence with or about a customer. Contact can be assigned for customers personally or in groups; and can be scheduled individually, recurrently, or as triggered by other events.

Both the Web and Outlook interfaces are highly customizable. Access rights and interface settings can be set at all levels and departments so that personnel can access records in an appropriate and intuitive form.

Dynamics CRM supports SQL Server Mirroring, which ensures that a backup copy of the database is consistently available in case of damaged files.

An organization must acquire both a Standard Edition CAL and an Enterprise Edition CAL in order to use the Enterprise Edition.

Groove 2007 is a collaboration software application that allows team members to collaborate by sharing files, participating in online meetings, and using collaboration tools in a shared workspace. Within a workspace, teams can outline plans interactively, jointly design projects, distribute support materials for analysis, and share ideas by voice or text chat. A copy of the shared workspace is installed on every team member’s hard drive and is synchronized as changes are made. If a member working offline makes a change, the change is queued and synchronized to other workspace members when the member comes back online. Team members can work for different organizations, work remotely, or work offline and resynchronize when they are back online.

For centralized management and control of Groove 2007, an organization can install Groove Server 2007. When Groove 2007 is deployed without Groove Server, new accounts are automatically provisioned to a Microsoft-hosted version of Groove Server’s Groove Relay component for communication over the Internet and management of synchronization. These services are provided with the Groove license at no additional charge. See the Microsoft Office Groove 2007 Privacy Statement for details on how account information is collected and used.

Forms Server 2007 is a new server offering in the Microsoft Office system. It is a standalone server that uses server-based electronic forms to streamline organizational processes and make data collection, distribution, and integration more cost-effective than with paper-based forms. It extends the reach of forms-driven processes to anyone over intranets, extranets, or the Internet and through mobile data services.

Forms Server 2007 works with forms created and deployed with InfoPath 2007, included in the Office Professional Plus 2007 suite. Older forms created with InfoPath 2003 can still be used, but they must be redeployed with InfoPath 2007.

Forms Server delivers new InfoPath Forms Services. This technology renders InfoPath form templates as browser-based forms that do not require either a local installation of InfoPath or download of any other software. InfoPath Forms Services–based forms are network-friendly and minimize the time-consuming roundtrips usually necessary for data validation and calculations.

A centralized forms repository enables users to find forms easily and administrators to maintain them and control their use. Users can design and deploy forms, but administrators determine who is permitted to publish forms to the server. With side-by-side form upgrades and automatic template version management, administrators can deploy new versions of forms with no downtime.

Note: InfoPath Forms Services is also available through SharePoint Server 2007 Enterprise Edition. Both standalone servers offer security-enhanced process integration.

This product includes a server license. Each user or device that accesses Forms Server must have a Forms Server user or device client access license (CAL).

Installing this product requires a license key and installation media. After your order is processed, instructions for obtaining the license key will be sent to your organization email address and the media disk will be sent to the provided shipping address.
