Dynamics 365 Business Central Service Management

For many businesses, it’s not just what happens before the sale, it’s equally important to deliver afterwards as well. Your customers need the products you deliver to be reliable and ready to be used when they need to use them. Whether that’s a computer, a piece of manufacturing equipment, a piece of machinery, or the like, if it goes down, your customer can’t work—and often, you’re the one they call first.

With Service Management in Business Central Premium, you can improve customer loyalty and satisfaction by providing the high quality service they expect and deserve.

Built in the cloud to combine the familiarity of Dynamics NAV with the anytime, anywhere access that growing businesses need, Dynamics 365 Business Central delivers the capabilities your people need to keep your customers happy.
