Farewell Dynamics CRM 2016, Hello Dynamics 365

Adam Cogan CRM Dynamics 365, Dynamics CRM 3 Comments

‘Dynamics CRM’ is no more – say hello to ‘Dynamics 365’. The flagship Dynamic products have always been AX (Operations), CRM (Sales and Marketing), and NAV (Finance), which could provide organisations with an end-to-end process. However, connectivity was lacking. Dynamics 365 is the combination of these products into one collection rather than just an overarching group name.

Motorbike accident

Adam Cogan General motorbike accident 13 Comments

I had a nasty accident on my motorbike last night. It’s written off 🔥💥 I know bikes are dangerous… Up until yesterday I’d not had a stack since I was 10 on the farm. The bike was a shiny black cruiser, a Honda VTX 1800C fatboy-looking motorcycle. I don’t have good recollection of the accident, […]

Adam Cogan George Michael 2 Comments

I’ve had a long love of George Michael’s music… Bought every album… Loved his concerts. The early concerts had a lot of young girls… The last concerts had a large percentage of Greek women in their 40s 🙂 and gay guys in their 20s. What I liked most of all was George’s sincerity in his […]
