QBS Marketplace & ExtensionsAgent Webinar

/dans , , /par

Join us for a 1-hour webinar on QBS Marketplace – your platform for making money on your IP
“Why another marketplace?” we hear you ask – and that is a very fair point – the market is crawling with marketplaces…

At QBS we are always taking our partners challenges serious and our continuous focus is to help you grow your revenue and lower your costs. That’s why we had to react when we learned that partners, owning IP or dedicated ISV partners, have a hard time really monetizing their solutions. On top of that, it’s also become clear that a solution built with Extensions on top of Business Central SaaS is vulnerable to misuse. We couldn’t have that. That’s why we’re extremely excited to introduce our QBS Marketplace with the built-in ExtensionAgent, providing a secure and flexible way for you to offer your IP to the reselling channel and their customers.

Reach out to the biggest Microsoft channel of Business applications partners and fastest-growing installed base of Business Central SaaS customers.

Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement versus PowerApps

/dans , /par

Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement versus PowerApps – when to use what? Join us for a webinar to get a better understanding of the differences – and the similarities.

The Microsoft Power Platform combines Flow, Power BI and PowerApps. You may have the first to nailed – but what about that last one? PowerApps? Is this a useful tool for the senior user to build new ‘no code’ applications as many people probably still think it is? Actually no – not just that: there is much more to it! PowerApps is built on the exact same technology as the Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement products are. Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement for Sales and its sisters are in fact Model Driven PowerApps.
All very well, but how can we use this technology and when do we choose what? In this session, we walk through several different real-life scenario’s using example builds to demonstrate the awesome power of the platform.

Get updated on – Inspire, Directions, eXtreme.
