We currently have a smorgasbord of stubby articles about Microsoft Dynamics, most of which are spammy, based mainly on the MS website, and of limited quality. I think one good article about the suite would be much better than what we have. Stifle (talk) 09:22, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support, but@Stifle, I think they just need some TLC. I've consolidated the 4 disparate pages into Business Central which stands on it's own compared to the D365 suite in general. There's just lots of duplicate articles around previous product versions. I've been maintaining Dynamics 365 Business Central]. 121.200.20.20 (talk) 09:53, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, but a different refactoring is needed. "Microsoft Dynamics" does not exist any more and should probably be moved to Microsoft Dynamics 365. For a little background, Microsoft went out and bought a bunch of different products and renamed them all "Microsoft Dynamics". They bought a product named "Navision" and renamed it "Microsoft Dynamics NAV". They bought a product named Axapta and renamed it "Microsoft Dynamics AX". They bought a product named Great Plains and renamed it "Microsoft Dynamics CP". You see the pattern. These are each completely unrelated products reaching unrelated markets with unrelated codebases. Since then, many of them have been combined and there are currently THREE actively maintained products - Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations (formerly known as Microsoft Dynamics AX), Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (formerly known as Microsoft Dynamics NAV), and Microsoft Dynamics 365 (CRM). Yes, confusingly, if you just say "Microsoft Dynamics 365" by itself, that is CRM. "Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales" is CRM. "Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance" is F&O. --B (talk) 13:51, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yes the product is currently named Microsoft Dynamics 365 move to that title should be appropriate. The way it is right now seems like these are current products using Microsoft Dynamics or did I miss any?
